In You Came
Embracing Love's Renewal: In You Came by The Petersens
Lyrics
It's been a long, yes, a long long time
Expressing a significant passage of time.
Since I've seen a rainbow
Describing a long absence of positive experiences, like seeing a rainbow.
Smelled an apple pie
Highlighting the absence of comforting and familiar scents, such as apple pie.
And played with the clouds passing by
Recalling a sense of playfulness and wonderment with nature.
Remembering those, those happy days
Nostalgically remembering past joyful moments.
Splashing in the puddles after the rain
Reflecting on carefree activities, like playing in puddles after rain.
Will I ever see them again?
Pondering the possibility of reliving those happy days.
But in you came with your arms open wide
Welcoming someone new into the speaker's life with openness and warmth.
Bringing back the rainbow after the rain
Attributing a positive impact to the presence of the newcomer, reminiscent of a rainbow after rain.
Bringing back the sunshine once again
Describing the revival of joy and positivity that the newcomer brings.
I've often wondered why you want me
Expressing curiosity about the reasons behind the newcomer's affection.
With all of my problems, child fantasies
Acknowledging personal flaws and youthful fantasies.
All that I've done and who I am
Reflecting on the speaker's actions and identity.
And now and then I will cry
Admitting occasional emotional vulnerability and sorrow.
Knowing how I've hurt you
Acknowledging the speaker's awareness of causing emotional pain.
Time and time again
Admitting to repeated mistakes and potential reasons for departure.
Really wouldn't blame you
Recognizing the legitimacy of leaving given the circumstances.
If you leave
Expressing understanding if the newcomer decides to leave.
But still you're there with your arms open wide
Highlighting the enduring presence and support of the newcomer.
Asking nothing of me
Emphasizing the newcomer's selfless and unconditional love.
Just of myself
Stating that the newcomer expects nothing in return but personal growth.
You put the past behind me and then
Acknowledging the newcomer's role in helping the speaker move forward from the past.
In you came
Noting the significant impact of the newcomer's arrival.
And I know now why you stayed
Understanding the reasons for the newcomer's continued presence.
Walking there beside me through thick and thin
Describing the consistent support of the newcomer in challenging times.
Always there to guide me on my way
Highlighting the constant guidance provided by the newcomer.
You're always there with your arms open wide
Reiterating the enduring support and openness of the newcomer.
Always there to turn to when times are sad
Emphasizing the availability of the newcomer during sad moments.
Giving me a smile to make me glad
Appreciating the ability of the newcomer to bring joy with a simple smile.
In You came
Summarizing the transformative impact of the newcomer's arrival.
