This song is about a love that transcends life, unconditional and pure. Love that you can feel for a loved one by your side or a loved one that is looking down on you from above. One that makes you feel special when they are and aren't around because of what they've installed in you, it will never leave your heart, regardless of the situation.
lyrics
Let me tell you, what I really mean
Beauty has been surging through, everything we’ve seen.
Always making me, feel like I can fly.
My guy is telling me, to put up a fight.
Send me kisses and you know that i'll be on my way.
You’ve been working 9 to 5 let me take care of you
I want, you to, always be there.
Will yo, promise and love me till the end.
Cherished touches, coursing through my veins.
I wanna give you all the world,
Along with my last name.
Sinking slowly, into both of your arms.
Comforted by words alone,
Making me feel calm.
Send me kisses and you know that i'll be on my way.
You’ve been working 9 to 5 let me take care of you.
I want, you to, always be there.
Will yo, promise and love me till the end.
You’re what’s on my mind when the goes to sleep,
When you’re far away its harder to breath.
You’re my shining supernova,
When I take you in, I’m far from sober.
Infatuated, understated.
Paired up together I know we’ll make it .
Puzzle pieces like a glove,
When it fits you know its love
Round and round we go,
Something like a merry go.
Numbers falling down,
I just wanna make you proud.
Skating in the skies,
Solid gold I’ve won the prize.
