Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
One morning I woke up, looked over and
Kissed your shoulder
It felt so right
You didn't wake
I could see it in your face
You knew my intention right
Sometimes I swear our connection was made amongst the stars
And makes me feel alive
Our love is powerful, so powerful
Moving mountains in the night
Oh, and I know sometimes this is hard for us
I know we sacrifice and get scarred, and cut, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose us this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
Persecuted, a leper left out to live upon the edge of life
How they left you, right, that's how they left you right
I picked up the pieces
They left you in broken pieces on the floor
Glowing in holy light
And even though I know they love you very much
They don't love you more than me
This you can trust, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
Like water, oh oh
I know it, I feel it, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
I know it, I feel us moving it
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
Kissed your shoulder
It felt so right
You didn't wake
I could see it in your face
You knew my intention right
Sometimes I swear our connection was made amongst the stars
And makes me feel alive
Our love is powerful, so powerful
Moving mountains in the night
Oh, and I know sometimes this is hard for us
I know we sacrifice and get scarred, and cut, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose us this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
Persecuted, a leper left out to live upon the edge of life
How they left you, right, that's how they left you right
I picked up the pieces
They left you in broken pieces on the floor
Glowing in holy light
And even though I know they love you very much
They don't love you more than me
This you can trust, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
Like water, oh oh
I know it, I feel it, oh
I know it, I feel us moving
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water
I know it, I feel us moving it
Let's never lose this, this movement
Momentum is building, our union is fluid like water
Clean, clear, crisp, we got a love just like this, water
Our love is like water

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
