The individual is caught off guard by the suddent realization that this person is the "one," the person that holds her heart.
She feels secure and safe with him, she understands that it will be almost impossible to let him go, hence the "I believe that it's easier for you to let me go" statement.
She battles with her feelings and continues to go back and forth with him. He continues to accept her, no matter what. She doesn't understand why he would do this. She doesn't realize that he is just as "in love" with her as she is with him. She battles with her feelings and the realization that he could be her salvation, accepting him could save her, rejecting him will lead to her demise.
However, even though she is batteling with her emotions and most likely sending off mixed signals, she hopes he will see right through her. She is already falling in love and wants him to be the one who catches her. When she feels that sense of panic, feels like running, he holds her in his arms and she is home, safe, content.
She hasn't had much luck in the past and doesn't feel she is worthy of love, which leads her to be more confused about this releationship. She doesn't want to leave him, however if she leaves him she won't be able to hurt him. She loves him so much she is freaking herself out, she doesn't want to hurt him, she doesn't want to get hurt, she is in a battle with her emotions and the love she has for him.
She's never let any one get so close, she's never been so vulnerable, and that scares her, but when he holds her in his arms he pulls her back to that secure feeling, home.
I believe this is a beautiful song. It really captures the depth of that vulnerable feeling that accompanies love, that confused, scared feeling. But it also captures the way love can pull us from that scared vulnerability into a feeling of safety and security. Very good song.....
You covered it well except for the part "if she leaves him she won't be able to hurt him." I suppose some people might hold that opinion, but what person is not hurt if the one they love leaves? When love is involved, there is usually hurt all around. As I learned in a college class on human behavior, we cannot have love without hate. They go hand-in-hand with indifference being the opposite of love. Indifference brings peace while both love and hate bring heartache. I coudn't recall the name of this song even though each time it plays on...

I coudn't recall the name of this song even though each time it plays on the radio I am happy to listen. SO pleased CP was discovered; her gentle voice complements the down-to-earth lyrics of her songs. I keep waiting for the music industry to change her so much so that she's another generic Ke$ha. At present she reminds me more of an Adele. I hope that remains.

Perfectly worded Jajacob. And yes HairyPalmJoe, hope she will remain as she is now...
