I Know a Place
Paul Mauriat And His Orchestra Lyrics

These lyrics convey a sense of confusion and desperation in a relationship where one person is unsure of the other's feelings. The singer is expressing their deep care and love for their partner, but they are uncertain if their feelings are reciprocated. They question whether their partner knows and understands their emotional investment, yet they feel hurt by the partner's actions that seem to disregard their feelings. The singer sees their partner as an integral part of their existence, the very breath they take, and they yearn for their heart to either be cherished or released from the uncertainty.

The lyrics also reveal the singer's struggle to comprehend the nature of love and their place in the relationship. They admit their confusion, pondering where they fit into their partner's scheme or plans. They question if they are wasting their time on a love that may not be genuine and express a sense of vulnerability, as if they are left with only their last dream before reaching a breaking point. Ultimately, the plea to the partner is for fairness - to either love them fully or let them go, as the uncertainty and lack of clarity about the partner's feelings has become unbearable.
