Tethered
Oceanic Bonds: Tethered Lyrics Unveiled
Lyrics
We were married by the ocean
We entered into a union or commitment near the ocean.
We were tethered by the sea
Our connection and bond are metaphorically linked to the vastness and depth of the sea.
We tied string around our fingers
We symbolically used string on our fingers as a reminder of our shared ideals or principles.
To remember our ideals
This string serves as a tangible representation of the values we aim to uphold.
I'll be brave when you are frightened
I will exhibit courage when you are afraid.
You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees
You will display strength when I am vulnerable or feeble.
I'll be calm when you have had
I will remain composed when you've reached a point of exhaustion from life's challenges.
Enough of these rushing waves
This refers to overcoming difficulties represented as rushing waves.
You'll be the oxygen I need
You will provide the essential support or life force that I require, like oxygen.
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
We will take turns navigating through challenges and complexities symbolized by knots.
Though our hands may be tied
Even when our actions are constrained, it's a natural part of our shared narrative.
It's all a part of the plot
Life's entanglements are inherent and contribute to the overall storyline.
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
Referencing the game "Cat's Cradle," we willingly adhere to the rules of engagement.
As we learn to enlace for
We are learning to intertwine our lives for the enduring duration of our relationship.
The rest of our lives
(Blank line)
You'll be balance when I waver
I will offer warmth when you are in a state of extreme cold or emotional distance.
I'll be warmth when you are shivering cold
You will embody patience during moments of prolonged waiting.
You'll be patience when I've had
I will serve as the grounding force, an anchor, during turbulent times.
Enough of this waiting game
(Blank line)
I'll be the anchor cast below

Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige

The rest of our lives
