"Are we
Are we just selfish
For wanting to keep you
Where we are
Just where you left us
You're seeing all the things I'd die to see
(all the things I'd die to see)"
-Someone close has passed away and he's ovbiously upset about it, but not wanting to be selfish because he knows that person is in a better place (Heaven) and he wishes he could join that person.
"Everybody finds it necessary
To say how much you loved me
As if I didn't know so deeply"
-People telling him that the person who died loved him so much and he's getting tired of hearing it because he already knew that.
"Can you see
Evidence of perfection
Look past the circumstance
And find some meaning
Find some meaning"
-Coming to the realization that their death fit perfectly into God's plan, and having to look past what everyone that was left mourning lost and how much more the person who died gained.
"If only this song could capture
The peace you are seeing
If only this song could capture
The hope we are seeking"
-He wishes there was a way to experience and share even the slighest amount of peace and happiness that his loved one is seeing and feeling yet at the same time wishing he could show this same loved one just how much the want reassurance that they will be together again one day.
"Just love me and let me sleep"
-Asking his loved one to continue to love him and to watch over him.
Just my take on it....
