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”
Send it up
Send it through
Send it back to you
Send it up
Send it through
Send it back to you
Your inner view, to me
Is something that I, do desire
Struggling to see a new something that I
Fantasize
So I'm sending
Send it up
Send it through
Send it back to you (and if you send it on back, baby)
Send it up
Send it through (no, I got to say no)
Send it back to you
You can't disguise your emotions
You know that I see in your eyes
You soul's in me
Your soul's somethin' that I feel inside
(Run, run, run, run, run) if I run, Lord only knows how far
That I and I will fall behind
Gotta find a better place, find a better space
So that I
So my life may be the one reason why
Tell me what will I do, baby? (Tell me what will I do?)
Send it right back to you
Hold on, be strong, for your own
Move on, before long, you'll get home
If you're feeling insecure
You can be sure it's because
Even if it take forever and a day for me to do
I gotta send it on to you
What will I do?
Tell me what will I do
Send it right back to you
Send it on
Send it on
Whenever you want to (send it on)
When it gets cold, babe (send it on)
Cold outside (send it on)
All your dreams (send it on)
When you get lonely (send it on)
We all get lonely sometimes (send it on)
Pick up the phone (send it on)
In the morning (send it on)
Or in the evening (send it on)
And in the midnight hours (send it on)
Yeah, baby (send it on)
You can send it on, baby (send it on)
Whenever you're in need, babe (send it on)
Whenever you're in need (send it on)
Just call me baby (send it on)
Send it on back my way, baby (send it on)
Oh, sometime it make me want to stop and say
Sometime
Sometime
We don't know what else to say, but
And it's alright, it's alright babe
So you know baby, we gotta get on
What will I do?
Tell me what will I do
Send it on back to you
Send it right back to you
Send it through
Send it back to you
Send it up
