Here I Am
Adam and Binki Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Looking down the line at you
Left a trail I hope you will undo
The echoes of failure inside someone
To learn to feel the flavor of the sun

Here I am, meet me as before and more again
I won't let my endings keep me from you again
Taking you from the back of my mind
To keep you with me always, all the time
Imagine scenes I hoped for you
Pretending to be realistic, too

Here I am, meet me as before and more again
I won't let my endings keep me from you again

Crack through the grip
Look up at what you've touched
Hiding yourself in the wrong place for love





Here I am, meet me as before and more again
I won't let my endings keep me from you again
