Focused inspiration.

"Floating tethered to a rope" refers to that unsure feeling when you're just drifting through life. The rope is your center, perhaps your friends and family or your own sense of self. You meet someone you want to include in your life and you are weighed down in a way that does not way you down. It's an anchor; a rock. You're drawn to it.

It doesn't define you but it moves you to move forward. That sense of completeness is the freedom to be who you are and to have someone accept you. Everytime you are with them you see that acceptance and it helps you to overcome adversity.

"It must be something in the water here" is a play on the idea that some small towns have a chemical added to the water supply that makes you act or think a certain way. What is being said is that there is something to this that reminds me of why I want to stay in this with you. This is what I want and I want it for a long, long time.
