I Need To Know
The Hours Lyrics

I can see you in my mama, eyes felt the loss of you when my father died
I can see your presence and influence in my mother, whose eyes reflect the sadness of losing you when my father passed away

I can see when people missing you, they tell me that you blind somehow you see me through
I can perceive how people long for you, even though they say you are blind, somehow you still see me and support me

Thought I had you for like a year or two, captured imposters turns out it wasn't true
I believed I had found you for a short period of time, but it turned out that those who claimed to possess you were deceivers

I been chasing you most of my life, never had the definition right
I have been pursuing you throughout my existence, yet I have never truly comprehended your true essence

You are what my family's lacking, they can put you on a shirt but it doesn't compare to the action
You are the missing element in my family's life, although they may display you on a surface-level, it cannot compare to experiencing you in action

Maneuver me through the madness, saved me when I was careless, burdens you help me bear it
You guide me through chaotic situations, rescue me when I'm reckless, and assist me in carrying the burdens of life

My soul would probably be buried without you
Without you, my soul would likely be overwhelmed and lost

Priceless rubies never value your worth
Even the most valuable gems like rubies cannot compare to your immense worth

Precious blessings ever found on earth
You are one of the most precious blessings one can find on this earth

You suffered long with me, never ever behave unseemly
You endured my struggles and hardships for a long time, never acting inappropriately

When I couldn't receive, there You waited Patiently
During times when I couldn't grasp or accept you, you patiently waited for me

I promise to wait here, if you'll come back to me
I assure you that I will remain here, waiting for your return

I promise I'll be here, just please come back for me
I promise that I will stay by your side, pleading for you to come back to me

Through all the pain, You remained Unchanged Unfeigned
Despite all the pain endured, you remained steadfast, genuine, and unaltered

To tell the truth, My heart dissolves In thirst of you
In all honesty, my heart yearns for you so intensely that it feels as if it is dissolving

We're so confused, We lie to hide from feeling you
We are deeply perplexed and afraid of embracing you, thus resorting to lies to avoid confronting our emotions

Don't you know you are my love?
Do you not realize that you are my beloved?
