Ben Clark Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So I'll keep feeling close to what′s beyond compare
The moments waking up, you catch me in your eyes
That beauty on my pillow that holds me in the night
And I would fight my strength to untape my mouth
When I used to be afraid of the words
And with you I've learnt just to let it out
And I, I feel like I'm ready for love
And I, I wanna be your everything and more
And I know every day I say it
But I just want you to be sure
That I am yours
If I be feeling heavy
You take me from the dark
Your arms they keep me steady
So nothing could fall apart
And I would fight my strength to untape my mouth
When I used to be afraid of the words
And with you I′ve learnt just to let it out
Now my heart is ready to burst
And I, I feel like I′m ready for love
And I wanna be your everything and more
And I know every day I say it
But I just want you to be sure
That I am yours
That I am yours
The first verse of Ben Clark's song "Yours" is a love declaration. The singer promises to cherish and embrace everything that reminds him of his loved one, even their winter coat. It brings him closer to what's beyond compare, which could represent the unique bond they share or the feeling of being loved. The second line says that he feels close to that particular item, which might show how the coat is a symbol of his partner's personality, a part of them that he adores.
The second verse talks about how his relationship with his partner has evolved. He used to be afraid to express himself, his feelings, or even his own voice. But since he has been with them, he has learned to let it out and be heard. He feels ready to burst, which could be interpreted as a positive feeling. He has grown enough emotionally to feel like he's ready for love. He wants to be everything his partner desires and more, and he repeats it every day, but most importantly, he wants them to be sure that he is theirs.
