Let’s start at the beginning of this story
I was just a boy with nowhere to call home
There I was building houses on the sand
I could see that I was only running circles in my mind
It just goes on and on and on until it finally catches up to me
Like gravity it takes me round and turns me upside down
That’s when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here
There you were in your perfection looking on
You see that I can only run in circles for so long
You just press on and on and on until you finally catch a grip on me
Like gravity you take me down and turn me upside down
That’s when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here
When will you be able to see past your own hands?
I’m taking down, empty pictures that we used to hold close, before you...
That’s when it all came screaming back
Just like gravity, what draws you to me
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here
I was just a boy with nowhere to call home
I could see that I was only running circles in my mind
It just goes on and on and on until it finally catches up to me
Like gravity it takes me round and turns me upside down
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here
You see that I can only run in circles for so long
You just press on and on and on until you finally catch a grip on me
Like gravity you take me down and turn me upside down
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here
I’m taking down, empty pictures that we used to hold close, before you...
Someone I didn’t know I needed
It’s like gravity, and it’s stronger than me
I need you here

Since The Fold is a christian band, i factored that in when i was trying to find out what the song was about. I think it has to do with someone realizing that God plays an important part in their life, and that they realize that they had separated from him and that it has clicked that this person needs God in their life.
you got it greg. Also, I emailed the band and told them to post on here, and I got a deeply profound reply, "Thanks man" but they might post on here soon...
this song is the best Christian song of all time man.
