Shapes That Go Together Lyrics

When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were undecided
I believed
It's all right tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
When you were filled with longing
I belonged
When you were weak from trying
I was strong
It's all right tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I
Childhood winters
Come to me
Whisper softly
So tenderly
I know, I walked twenty five miles to hold you
Just to find you'd moved away
When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
And when you were almost blinded
I could see
But it's all right tonight
On a deep blue mountain high
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I
You and I
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
The shapes that go together
We go together
The shapes that go together
You and I
The shapes that go together
The shapes that go together
The shapes that go together
When you were wrapped in tangles
I was free
The shapes that go together
The shapes that go together
The shapes that go together

Basically about how someone you love completes you, even if each is different. Could be about a lover. The lyric works on a more global level too. Acceptance of diversity and what not. Hence, methinks it was also chosen as the Paralymics anthem.

Utterly love the lines: I walked twenty five miles to hold you Just to find you'd moved away....

Makes me smile despite the unfortunate predicament :)
