Can't Imagine Love Without You
Exploring the Boundless Depths of Love
Lyrics
Can you picture mother earth?
Reflecting on the vastness of Mother Earth
In the palm of your hand
Symbolizing control or influence over the world
The entire universe
Contemplating the entire universe
As a tiny grain of sand
Comparing the universe to a small grain of sand
And it feels impossible to do
Expressing the difficulty of the task
As I can't imagine love without you
Linking the challenge to the impossibility of imagining love without someone
Think of drinking every sea
Imagining an impossible feat, like drinking every sea
With it's salty waters dry
Emphasizing the vastness of the sea and its salty nature
Sprinting 'round the world three times
Describing a swift and unattainable action, running around the world three times
Faster than a rocket fly's
Comparing the speed to a rocket's flight
And the thought of it you can't pursue
Highlighting the unattainability of the thought
As I can't imagine love without you
Connecting the impossibility to imagining love without someone
Some thoughts just know great news
Differentiating between thoughts of varying significance
Not worth the amount of time
Emphasizing the insignificance of certain thoughts
Yet others inconceivable
Referring to thoughts that are beyond comprehension
So they never cross your mind
Stating that such thoughts never enter one's mind
Travel back through life and times
Time-traveling through personal experiences
One Atlanta summers night
Recalling a specific night in Atlanta
Add up every single star
Symbolizing the vastness of time by counting stars
Since the day the first was light
Tracing stars from the beginning of time
How and when they started? Have no clue
Expressing uncertainty about the origin of stars
As I can't imagine love without you
Relating the uncertainty to the inability to imagine love without someone
Yet others inconceivable
Reiteration of thoughts that never cross the mind
So they never cross your mind
Reemphasizing the concept of inconceivable thoughts
Travel back through life and times
Revisiting the idea of time-travel through personal experiences
One Atlanta summers night
Recalling the Atlanta night again
Add up every single star
Reiterating the vastness of time through stars
Since the day the first was light
Repeating the tracing of stars from the beginning
How and when it started? Have no clue
Reiterating uncertainty about the origin of stars
And the thought of it you can't pursue
Connecting the uncertainty to the impossibility of pursuing the thought
'Cause it feels impossible to do
Expressing the difficulty of the task once again
As I can't imagine love without
Reaffirming the impossibility of imagining love without someone
I can't imagine love without, you, oh-oh
Final repetition of the inability to imagine love without the person
