Lyrics

Just like the sun shining over the mountain top

Comparing the singer's presence to the consistent nature of the sun shining over a mountain top.

You know I'll always come again

Assurance of returning, no matter what.

You know I love to spend my morning time

Expressing a preference for spending time together in the morning.

Watchin' sunlight dancing on your skin

Appreciating the beauty of seeing sunlight reflecting on the partner's skin.


I've never gone so wrong for telling lies to you

Admitting fault for lying to the partner.

What you see is what I've been

Asserting honesty now; the current behavior reflects the truth.

There is nothing I can hide from you

Revealing there's nothing hidden from the partner; transparency is present.

You see me better than I ever can

Acknowledging that the partner knows the singer better than they know themselves.


Out on the road that lies before me now

Reflecting on an uncertain future path that lies ahead.

There are some turns where I will spin

Acknowledging there will be challenges (turns) on this journey.

Darlin' I only hope, only hope that you will hold me now

Expressing a plea for the partner's support during these challenging times.

Until I gain control again

Desiring the partner's presence and support until the singer regains control of their life.


Just like the lighthouse I must stand alone

Comparing oneself to a lighthouse, indicating a need to stand resiliently alone.

Landmarks to mark the sailors journeys end

Symbolizing oneself as a guidepost for others, despite the challenges faced.

No matter what sea I've been sailing on

Emphasizing the singer's consistent nature despite facing various challenges.

You know, you know I'll always roll this way, this way again

Assurance of maintaining a consistent approach despite the circumstances.


Out on the road that lies before me now

Reiteration of facing an uncertain future.

Surely there will be some turns where I will spin, spin

Acknowledgment that challenges (turns) will still be encountered.

I only hope, I only hope that you, you will hold me now, hold me now

Repeating the plea for the partner's support during difficult times.

Till I gain, till I gain control, control again

Desiring the partner's presence until the singer regains control of their life.


Out on the road that lies before me now

Reiteration of the uncertainty ahead on the journey.

There are some turns, some turns where I will spin, spin

Highlighting the inevitability of facing challenges.

I only hope, only hope that you will hold me now, hold me now

Expressing the need for the partner's support until control is regained.

Until I gain control again

Reiterating the desire for the partner's presence until the singer overcomes their struggles.

Till I gain control

Finalizing the plea for regaining control while seeking the partner's support.
