The meaning of this song is about her relationship in God.
"My tongue dances behind my lips for you"
That doesn't mean that it is perverted to relate that to God. If you are going to take this on a litteral sense then how does a love song relate when she says
"And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive"
That is talking about her in heaven. It's only then when she is really alive. She has made it to the place she has always wanted to be. Everything is perfect.
"My hands float up above me
And you whisper you love me
And I begin to fade
Into our secret place"
That is talking about praise and worship. People raise their hands in praise. Most prayers contain some sense of love for God. Also, in prayer most people fade into their secret place where it is only the connection of them and God.
PLUS, lets think about this-- Flyleaf is a Christian rock band therefore I am pretty sure this is a song about God. You may think its a love song but it may just be her love for Jesus Christ.
"And so I cry
The light is white
And I see you
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive"

Have you ever been in love? i mean not with god... you know sometimes ppl say it feels like heaven... but you might have missed when they mentioned how love feels like...

yeah it can mean praying but when you're a non-believer lifting up you hands (especially when you're laying on your bed) means you feel free, you're totally satisfied, you can reach everything. and when he says he loves her the most beautifull words for someone who's in love with the speaker, she disappear into heaven with him.
Take my hand
I give it to you
Now you owe me
All I am
You said you would never leave me
I believe you
I believe
i think it's obvious. I met someone , fall in love, he said him too, i give my hand and with it i give my everything, he promised he would't leave me, and so on.
And just because they're a christian band, they can't sing about the most beautiful human feeling, about love (between ppl)?
Yeah it can be about god, but it can be about a simplier thing.
Yeah, yeah i know you christians see god everywhere, but i don't, so just let me listen to it without thinking about sth i don't believe in.
Well... since they ARE a Christian band.
and they do sing about Christian related stuff...
AND pretty much ALL of their songs are Christain songs...
PLUS the lyrics say
"The angels singing say we are alone with you
I am alone and they are too with you"
Obviously a blunt lyric.

mnieove, honnybee the only thing i can say, that i know that they're a christian band. they do sing about god and christian stuff. but not all the time. and it's a fact. (see Treasure, that song is surely about her engagement, though could be god.... but noooo SHE said that's about the night she was proposed). Anyway love, friendship and other things can be related to christians but also to buddha, to atheists and so on to ANY religion. and if they want their songs to reach everyone(and they do), they let ppl to interpret there song as they...

I don't say this song's about something awful. I say it's about LOVE not GOD. does it hurt anyone? you had an oppinion i had another. and just because i'm so nice i explain you the angel stuff in my point of view:) so you're in love with a real person. there are just you two. you feel so happy that heaven had to come down to the earth (moreover if you believe in god), and angel sent you this moment, they just make everything's alright around. it's poetry. and a very nice picture, heaven, angels and two lovers.
Maybe this song is not about it for you, and i CAN, i am able to accept that.
BUT for me that's what this song is about. that's what obvious to me.

This song is totally about God.
Yeah, now I see it! I completely agree!!

"My tongue dances behind my lips for you" can be related to speaking in tongues because it's the Holy ghost inside of you

But, why does Flyleaf perform this song, and how do they interpret it; putting all of the lyrics together the way they do?

@downforbreakfast My first thought was that she's talking about speaking in tongues but really I think it's a reference to silent prayer.
