When I'm With You
Discovering My True Self in Your Presence
Lyrics
There was no big conundrum
Expressing there was no complex puzzle or dilemma.
No epiphany for me
Stating there was no sudden realization or profound insight.
I had no sudden flash to tell me what my life would be
Reflecting on the absence of a clear vision for life.
But in a passing moment
Describing a brief moment in time.
I looked and I saw me
Noticing oneself during that moment.
With you in a state I thought I'd never see
Being in a situation never anticipated, likely with the significant other.
A state of vulnerability, of honesty, of being free, of being me
Describing the emotional state: vulnerability, honesty, freedom, authenticity.
I think that I like me more
Expressing a positive shift in self-perception.
I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
Reiterating the enhanced self-liking when in the company of the significant other.
I think that I like me more
-I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
-Well I've noticed quite the pattern
Observing a recurring pattern of lightness and ease when together.
There's a lightness and an ease
-That saturates my laugh when you're standing next to me
-Maybe in a passing moment
Suggesting the evolution of "you and I" into a unified "we" or team.
You and I became we
-Us a team
-I think that I like me more
Continuing to affirm the increased self-liking during shared moments.
I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
-I think that I like me more
-I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
-My laugh, my joy, my peace
Highlighting the ease of experiencing personal emotions like laughter, joy, and peace in the partner's presence.
They come so easily
-When I'm with you
-I think that I like me more
Repeating the theme of improved self-perception when with the significant other.
I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
-Every human has his flaws
Acknowledging human flaws and universal imperfections.
Every body tainted to the bone
-To the soul
-I'm no exception to these laws
-But when you come around
Emphasizing the positive impact of the significant other, bringing out the speaker's goodness and love.
My good's pulled out
-My love pours out
-When you come around
-When you come around
Repeating the notion of positive self-liking when the partner is around.
I think that I like me more
Affirming the enjoyment of self and identity in the presence of the significant other.
Mmm ooh
-I think that I like, I like me more
-When I'm with you
Reiterating the theme of increased self-liking specifically when with the significant other.
I think that I like me more
-I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
-I think that I like me more
-I think that I like me more
-When I'm with you
