I WANT TO WALK WITH YOU
Childs Toni Lyrics

The lyrics of this song convey a sense of hesitation and confusion felt by the singer. The first line, "I keep finding this decision hard", highlights the difficulty in making an important choice, potentially related to a relationship. The second line highlights the emotional state of the singer: they feel lost and unable to see a way forward ("a room that's in the dark"). The singer then pleads for someone to offer guidance ("I don't know, shed some light on it/ Maybe save me from what I'm feeling"). They are struggling with a heavy burden that is weighing them down emotionally, and they need someone to help them overcome it.

The next lines mention a "secret" that is now out in the open, suggesting that the decision that the singer was struggling with might have been something they were keeping hidden or private. The chorus is the emotional peak of the song, with the singer expressing their desire to walk with someone and hear them say... well, we're not sure. The lyrics leave that part up to the listener's interpretation, perhaps intentionally so. The singer might be seeking love, comfort, or just someone to help them navigate their confusion, but their longing is clear.
