Lyrics
Now you know that I heart everything about you
Expressing admiration and affection for everything about the person.
And that's why it's quite hard to get through this alone
Expressing difficulty in dealing with a situation without the person's support.
You're the only one I can talk to about it
Highlighting the trust and reliance on the person for conversation and support.
In my darkest night I will be on my own
Feeling alone and unsupported during difficult times.
These walls that we climb are hard to recognize
Metaphorically referring to emotional barriers that are challenging to identify.
They fall when I say your name
Suggesting that mentioning the person's name breaks down these emotional barriers.
Here we go
Repetition of the chorus, emphasizing uncertainty about the future despite being in a significant position ("big chair").
Fast and slow
-On the big chair
-But we don't know
-Where we're going
-On the big chair
-Don't you know it's hard, quite, in the time of confusion
Expressing the difficulty in expressing love and emotions during confusing times.
To tell you that I love you
Repetition of the chorus, emphasizing uncertainty about the future despite being in a significant position ("big chair").
You see it could have been me instead of you
Reflecting on the possibility of being in a similar situation but accepting the reality that it didn't happen.
It could have been me if I wanted to
Acknowledging the alternate possibilities but facing the truth of the current situation.
But it wasn't
-So we'll have to face the truth
-These walls that we climb are hard to recognize
Repetition of the chorus, emphasizing uncertainty about the future despite being in a significant position ("big chair").
They fall when I say your name
-Here we go
-Fast and slow
-On the big chair
-But we don't know
-Where we're going
-On the big chair
-Time to pull the shutters down
Metaphorically signaling the need to close off or protect oneself.
Breakin' clouds don't make a sound?
Suggesting that even when change happens, it might not be noticed or make an audible impact.
Here we go
Repetition of the chorus, emphasizing uncertainty about the future despite being in a significant position ("big chair").
Fast and slow
-On the big chair
-But we don't know
-Where we're going
-On the big chair
