Lyrics
I could write a book about
I have a lot to say or express about
The day
A specific day or time
We just had
The recent past, possibly an important experience
Bless the holy thieves that robbed my love
Grateful for challenges or difficulties in love that may have shaped it positively
Until now
Up until this moment in time
I could beg
I am capable of pleading or seeking desperately
Like a dog
Describing a state of submission or vulnerability
Lay me down, hold me soft
Asking for comfort or reassurance, a tender moment
I could stay, for too long
Expressing a willingness to remain in a situation for an extended period
Break me down, make me stop
Open to being emotionally broken, with a desire for cessation
And as I love you, pull me out
Describing a deep emotional connection, a plea for support
I'll pray, you won't doubt
Hoping for trust and confidence in the relationship
I could beg, like a dog
Repetition of the willingness to beg, emphasizing vulnerability
Lay me down, hold me softly
Reiteration of a desire for comfort and tenderness
In a quiet room, full of nothing but you
Describing an intimate space filled only with thoughts of the loved one
I can't leave your arms,
Feeling unable to separate from the embrace or influence of the loved one
To know you is to love you
Stating that understanding the person is synonymous with loving them
I do
A declaration of love
I do
Repetition for emphasis or sincerity
I swear I love you like the trees do
Comparing love to the steadfastness of trees, suggesting enduring and constant affection
(Lay me down, hold me softly)
Reiteration of the declaration of love
I do
Repetition for emphasis or sincerity
I do
-I do
Final repetition of the commitment to love
