Someone I Could Love
Embracing Love's Light: Thomas Gehlfuß' Soulful Journey
Lyrics
Close my doors,
Expressing the desire to shut out negative influences.
that the sin never again finds a way in my heart.
A plea for protection from sinful influences entering the heart.
Give me strength,
Requesting strength to be a vessel for divine light.
that Your light shines through me into the world.
Asking for the divine light to radiate through oneself into the world.
For there are many, who need light,
Acknowledging the existence of many people who need spiritual illumination.
there are many, who can‘t remember, how it feels right.
Highlighting the struggles of those who have forgotten what happiness feels like.
I walked the way, carried the cross and lost the rest of my life.
Reflecting on a journey, carrying burdens and sacrificing personal desires.
You carried me, out of the darkness into the light.
Gratitude for being rescued from darkness and brought into the light.
Now I am searching for the one,
Expressing a search for a purpose in serving a higher power.
that I can serve in the name of He who will come.
Seeking to serve in the name of a divine figure yet to come.
Would You give me Your hold, I cannot take it alone,
Pleading for divine support, recognizing personal limitations.
because I‘m just a piece of clay.
Acknowledging human fragility, being compared to a piece of clay.
I know, I‘m never enough, but I am loved for my own,
Awareness of personal inadequacy, yet feeling loved for who one is.
so I can give my life away.
Willingness to give one's life in service to others.
If I could give something back, from what I have got,
Expressing a desire to give back, particularly in the form of love.
it would be a piece of love.
Recognizing the insufficiency of personal efforts.
I know, it‘s never enough,
Acknowledging personal needs and limitations.
I need so much for my own,
Expressing the need for personal fulfillment.
but just a glimpse can open worlds
Believing that even a small gesture can have a profound impact on someone to love.
for someone I could love,
Desire to make a positive impact on someone's life through love.
someone I could love.
Reiteration of the desire to find someone to love.
If I could give something back, from what I have got,
Expressing a wish to give back, this time in the form of time.
it would be a piece of time.
Acknowledging personal limitations in providing time.
I know, it‘s never enough, I need so much for my own,
Emphasizing personal needs while recognizing the desire to share time.
but it would be a part of mine
Willingness to give a part of one's time for the sake of love.
for someone I could love,
Reiterating the desire to impact someone's life positively through love.
someone I could love.
Continuation of the theme of wanting to love someone.
In the end,
Reflecting on the ultimate ability to give as a divine gift.
all I can give is a gift from above,
Acknowledging the limitations in personal abilities.
as I stand
Positioned in a state of love despite being surrounded by nothing.
here in the middle of nothing but love.
Expressing a sense of being in a state of love in the midst of emptiness.
There are many, who need light,
Reiteration of the prevalence of people in need of light.
there are many, who can‘t remember how it feels right.
Highlighting the difficulty some people face in remembering what feels right.
