Lyrics
I wanna say that I'm so tired
Expressing fatigue, possibly from life's challenges or emotional struggles.
Is it okay if I stay for a while
Seeking permission to remain in someone's company for a period.
Holdin' you lightens my load
Noting that being with the person lightens the emotional burden.
You give me love that forever flows
Acknowledging the enduring and continuous nature of the love received.
Would you let me stay
Asking for permission to stay, implying a desire for continued companionship.
I don't say it every day
Admitting to not verbalizing affection every day.
I don't show it, always
Acknowledging a lack of constant visible displays of affection.
You know I love you
Directly expressing love and affirming the emotional connection.
I am whole because of you
Claiming a sense of completeness due to the presence of the person.
Yeah I am whole because of you
Reiterating the idea that the person completes the speaker.
Some days I feel like drowning
Describing moments of feeling overwhelmed or emotionally submerged.
The fall seems unending, then I see your face
Finding solace and renewed strength upon seeing the face of the person.
And I fight to reach the surface
Struggling against difficulties and fighting to overcome challenges.
You breathe life into me, breathe into me...
Attributing a life-giving quality to the person, emphasizing their impact.
Would you let me stay
Repeating the desire to stay, possibly emphasizing the importance of the relationship.
Because of you
Connecting the act of staying directly to the influence of the person.
I love you, I'll tell you today
Explicitly declaring love and promising to communicate it today.
I love you; I'll show you always
Committing to consistently showing affection and love in actions.
I love you; you saved me
Acknowledging that the person played a significant role in saving the speaker.
I love you; please forever hold me
Pleading for lasting emotional support and closeness.
Please let me stay
Reiterating the desire to remain in the person's presence.
