Heaven
Love's Ocean: Navigating Life's Worries in Ziggy Alberts' 'Heaven'
Lyrics
So nobody puts effort in like I do
Expressing a unique level of dedication and effort in relationships.
So nobody else knows what's really goin' on
Claiming a deep understanding of the situation that others may not possess.
And you're kind of like coffee, I
Comparing the person to coffee, acknowledging that they may not always be beneficial, yet addictive.
Know you ain't always good for me, but
Acknowledging the potential drawbacks of the relationship but highlighting its captivating nature.
You keep me up for a long time, you
Describing the lingering effect and impact of the person on the speaker.
Keep me up on those long drives
Highlighting the role of the person in providing companionship during long journeys.
I, I won't give you up
Reaffirming commitment and unwillingness to let go.
There's things I just don't know how else to say
Expressing difficulty in finding alternative ways to convey certain feelings.
These things that I'm most worried about
Alluding to concerns and worries, hinting at the fragility of the relationship.
Is heaven might come down and steal you away
Repeated concern that heaven might intervene and separate the speaker from the person.
Is heaven might come down and steal you away
-Heaven might come down and steal you away
-See love's kind of like the ocean
Drawing a parallel between love and the ocean, emphasizing the need to navigate its challenges.
You just got to learn how to swim, because
Encouraging resilience in facing the difficulties inherent in love.
No one's ever said that it's better out than it's in
Suggesting that internal experiences (love within) are more valuable than external experiences (love outside).
And there hasn't been a time yet, when
Implying that witnessing vulnerability (getting undressed) doesn't diminish admiration.
I've been watching you get undressed
Repeating the idea that admiration remains strong even in intimate moments.
My jaw doesn't drop to the floor
-That my jaw doesn't drop to the floor
-I, I won't give you up
Reiterating the commitment to not give up on the relationship.
There's things I just don't know how else to say
Acknowledging challenges in expressing certain feelings.
These things that I'm most worried about
Revisiting concerns and anxieties about potential threats to the relationship.
Is heaven might come down and steal you away
Repeatedly expressing the fear that heaven might intervene and separate the speaker from the person.
Is heaven might come down and steal you away
-Heaven might come down and steal you away
-Is heaven might come down and steal you away
Reiterating the concern that heaven might disrupt the relationship.
