Surprise
Travis Bryant Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The same ones you left this morning
Spent the better part of your day away from
Cause they left you lonesome for me
Put the key into the door
Cause you can never be quite sure
That the doorstep doesn't keep you
From the love you're aching for
Fall into my arms
The way you make everything better
The way i begged, my god
When i was drying up in the desert
Just give me one more chance
For us to be together
And i'll come home to you

The second line in this verse, "Cause they left you lonesome for me," suggests that the awaiting party was lonely without their significant other's presence, indicating that their love brings happiness and comfort.
As the song continues with "put the key into the door, cause you can never be quite sure, that the doorstep doesn't keep you, from the love you're aching for," the listener is reminded that home is where the heart is. The person waiting sees their significant other unlocking the door that separates them from the love they long for. Furthermore, the lyrics "[f]all into my arms, the way you make everything better, the way I begged, my god, when I was drying up in the desert," suggest that the singer finds comfort in their loved one's embrace.

Climb the steps toward me
Come closer to me by climbing the stairs
The same ones you left this morning
The stairs that you left in the morning
Spent the better part of your day away from
You were away for most of the day
Cause they left you lonesome for me
You missed me while you were away
Put the key into the door
Open the door with the key
Cause you can never be quite sure
The uncertainty of whether the door is locked
That the doorstep doesn't keep you
Hoping that the doorstep won't prevent you from entering
From the love you're aching for
You long for love and want to enter the house
Fall into my arms
Come into my loving embrace
The way you make everything better
Being with you improves everything
The way I begged, my god
Expressing how much you were looking forward to be with them
When I was drying up in the desert
A metaphor for feeling lonely and empty without them
Just give me one more chance
Asking for one more opportunity or possibility to make things right
For us to be together
To be with each other and not be apart any longer
And I'll come home to you
I will return to you as my home

I think it's so great that you can travel and then come back to somebody that you're comfortable with knowing that they'll stay with you and that they won't hurt you and they'll be there for you
