My interepretation line by line (some of them): I don't know you ~ I just met you. But I want you ~ but I like you a lot All the more for that ~ because for some reason I want to know all about you. Words fall through me ~ I'm saying things I usually don't say to other people And always fool me And I can't react ~ I'm not sure what to do And games that never amount ~ I'm starting to play games to make you like me more To more than they're meant Will play themselves out ~ eventually I'll stop playing games when I know you want me. Take this sinking boat and point it home ~ say you like me too and want to take me home with you We've still got time ~ it's early! Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice ~ Say yes, but it's ok if you say no. You've made it now ~ You agreed! Falling slowly, eyes that know me ~ falling in love with the person, feeling that they know you the way no one else does. And I can't go back ~ life before was ok, now with love it is wonderful, if he/she were to lose that love, it would be really tough going back to being alone. Moods that take me and erase me ~ I forget how I usually act and I'm feeling like a new person. And I'm painted black - blank You have suffered enough - You've been through some tough relationships (talking to the person he/she loves) And warred with yourself ~ You've battled with letting yourself Love me. It's time that you won ~ You love me now and you have one because it is for real this time. Take this sinking boat and point it home ~ Let's make a home together. We've still got time ~ We have time to do all the things we want to do together. Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice - Say yes, but it is ok if you say no. You've made it now ~ You've made the decision to love me. Falling slowly sing your melody ~ You lead the way I'll sing along ~ I'll follow Source(s): My own interpretation line by line. |
