Lyrics

Bound to you, I breathe again

Feeling a strong connection, finding renewed life in the relationship.

With one more chance to try

An opportunity for another attempt, a chance to improve.

(To find myself and then

Expressing the desire to discover oneself and then bring warmth to their hearts and minds.

Light our hearts and minds)

Emphasizing the importance of illumination and understanding in the relationship.

But when I’m under your skin

When deeply involved with you, losing awareness of one's identity.

I forget who I was

Forgetting one's true self when under the influence of the other person.

(He talks inside your dreams)

A mysterious figure communicates within dreams.


That no where you can go is safe

Highlighting the lack of safety or security in any direction.

Nothing you can do is right

Suggesting a sense of helplessness or inability to do things correctly.

But a big reward waits, if you try

Promising a significant reward for making an effort despite challenges.


Two guardians for your inner light

Reference to protectors or guides for one's inner light.

(Inside a cold blue hall)

Within a cold environment, possibly symbolizing emotional distance or hardship.

Songbirds, mom and priest are there

Mentioning songbirds, mother, and priest in a place of significance.

(Organist’s candles flare)

Describing the atmosphere with the organist's candles flickering.

The pigeons flew, it smelt so sweet

Imagery of pigeons flying, accompanied by a sweet aroma.

(And then you let me in)

Being allowed into a space or experience by someone else.

When the three songs begin.

The beginning of three significant songs or events.


‘Cause no where you can go is safe

Reiterating the lack of safety or security in any direction.

Nothing you can do is right

Emphasizing the difficulty of doing things correctly or making the right choices.

But a big reward waits, if you try

Reaffirming the promise of a substantial reward for making an effort despite challenges.


Without you now, I’m free from pain

Feeling liberated and without pain when not in the presence of the other person.

(And I don’t need to try)

No longer needing to make an effort when separated.

To find myself again

The ability to rediscover oneself independently.

(To light our hearts and minds)

Returning to a state of enlightenment and understanding in solitude.

But when I’m outside your skin

When outside the influence of the other person, reconnecting with one's true self.

(I’m one with who I was)

Being in harmony with one's original identity.

We talk inside your dreams

Communication occurring within dreams.


That no where you can go is safe

Reiterating the lack of safety or security in any direction.

Nothing you can do is right

Emphasizing the difficulty of doing things correctly or making the right choices.

But a big reward waits, if you try

Reaffirming the promise of a substantial reward for making an effort despite challenges.
