All I Meant feat. Cole Jonique
Chorus 1, Cole Jonique
All I meant to do
Is tell you I'm listening
Tell you I hear you
Now, forever more, I'll be
I'll be on my own
And, all I meant to say
Every reaching
Every healing
Now, forever more, I'll be
I'll be on my own
Verse 1, Chuckie Campbell
Maybe it was me
Maybe it was you
Maybe it was everything you knew
So, let go
Maybe you're my angel
Epitome of faithful:
Is all beauty painful?
I don't know
Looking through our pictures
With so much to remember
I know that if I love you
I'll tell you
Move on
No one here can fix you
No one here can save me
You're hurt and I'm angry
Still, we hold on
Images of making love
Becoming one, I'm wondering
If covenants and promises
Uncover it –
Just two –
Colors in a spectrum
Broken and reflective
Nothing could be separate:
It's in you
What happens when the pa**ions
Of two people in attraction
End up hurting one another with
Their actions?
Sometimes
People bring out nothing
But the bad in one another
Even when intentions are
Nothing but good
Please, look
Chorus 2, Cole Jonique (x1)
Verse 2, Chuckie Campbell
There are moments in our lifetime
Open as the skyline
Meant to show us time in a pinhole
Let's go
People want to be in love
Do they know what love is?
I seem to only know what it's not
I know
Love is not bickering
Love is not arguing
Love is not always in a fight
One time
Love is not controlling
Love is not hoping
Bruises get easier to hide
Two times
Love is not cra**
Or bringing up the past
Or yelling just to hurt the other back
Three times
Love is not mad
Doesn't talk with its hands
And it doesn't always get another chance
Four times
Love is not wrath
Revenge or payback
Trying to replace what it had
One love
Love is not lost
Doesn't always come around
And before it loves another
It must first love itself
Chorus 3, Cole Jonique (x1)
Coda:
Just under the starlight
On the face of the water
She dreams only but half asleep
Dying on the tide, in the cool summer breeze
All my love, I'm afraid, is beneath
I imagine in a sliver
Of time where I reach
That she also reaches out to me
My heart is a yolk in a thin hollow shell
Praying for a moment of relief
A ghost in a stampede
Looking at its body
Hovering above a cold street
I'm waiting for the pain
To bleed into my eyes
My love running down my cheek
Chorus 4, Cole Jonique (x1)
