Lyrics
I know you said to me
I acknowledge what you told me
"Will my heart be free when I'm alone?"
Questioning whether my heart will be liberated when I'm by myself
Tomorrow only knows
Focusing on the uncertainty of the future
And who are we to say
Raising the question of our authority to predict that challenges won't come
the high tide won't surround our shores
Contemplating the possibility of challenges (high tide) affecting us
Peaceful forevermore
Seeking a state of perpetual peace
Holding on
Expressing determination to hold on despite challenges
Spaces in between
Referring to the emotional distance and uncertainties
Can I hold your heart 'til you guarantee
Asking if I can keep your heart until it's confirmed as mine
it belongs to me?
Desiring ownership of your heart
I'll sing a softer tune for you
Promising to sing a gentler melody for you
And if you cry your eyes anew
Expressing readiness to console you if you shed tears
Then our love is true
Asserting the truth of our love if emotions are genuine
Beneath the moonlight
Under the moonlight, emphasizing unity of our spirits
Our souls are one
Expressing difficulty in deciding if I should persist
I can't decide
Undecided about holding on
if I'm holding on
(Empty line - serves as a break or pause)
Bring your heartbeat closer
Requesting closeness of your heartbeat to my fading sunlight
To my setting sun
Using imagery to depict intimacy and vulnerability
Like waves surrounding me
Comparing challenges to waves surrounding and deepening
deeper each one
Intensifying challenges or emotions with each occurrence
