Finally I figured out
But it took a long, long time
But now there's a turnabout
Maybe 'cause I'm trying

There's been times, I'm so confused
All my roads, They lead to you
I just can't turn and walk away

It's hard to say what it is I see in you
Wonder if I'll always be with you
But words can't say, And I can't do
Enough to prove,
It's all for you

I thought I'd seen it all
'Cause it's been a long, long time
But then we'll trip and fall
Wondering if I'm blind

There's been times, I'm so confused
All my roads, They lead to you
I just can't turn and walk away

It's hard to say what it is I see in you
Wonder if I'll always be with you
But words can't say, And I can't do
Enough to prove,
It's all for you

Rain comes pouring down
Falling from blue skies
Words without a sound
Coming from your eyes

Finally I figured out
But it took a long, long time
But now there's a turnabout
Maybe cause I'm trying

There's been times, I'm so confused
All my roads, They lead to you
I just can't turn and walk away

It's hard to say what it is I see in you
Wonder if I'll always be with you
But words can't say, And I can't do
Enough to prove,
It's all for you

It's hard to say what it is I see in you
Wonder if I'll always be with you
But words can't say, And I can't do
Enough to prove,
It's all for you

It's hard to say
It's hard to say
It's all for you

    Song Meaning:This is a GREAT song! It's about a man who has been confused (There's been times, I'm so confused.) He was on his way out I just can't turn and walk away) but he realizes there is enough between them to salvage the relationship and so, in order to prove how much he loves her (And I can't do Enough to prove,It's all for you) he is making changes for the relationship. The end result of their relationship is still unknown (Wonder if I'll always be with you,) and he isn't sure why he feels so strongly about her (It's hard to say what it is I see in you) but he does know she really cares (Rain comes pouring down Falling from blue skies Words without a sound Coming from your eyes) and he realizes she is who he wants to be with (All my roads, They lead to you.) Sometimes in relationships we tend to lose our way and we have to figure out how to get the relationship back on track. Sometimes all it takes is to try (Maybe cause I'm trying) to make things right. It's an upbeat song that makes you feel all is right in the world - at least for now. I love it!

    General Comment:i can see where everyone is thinking it's about guy having stronger feelings for his friend, but i see it differently.

    my opinion is that it's about a couple who has been together for awhile and they are on an up and down roller coaster
    "I thought I'd seen it all 'Cause it's been a long, long time."

    The guy realizes that something needs to change for things to work out "finally i figured it out, but it took long long time.. Now there's a turnabout maybe because im trying" & he lost sight of why they're together, but he can't still pinpoint why that is other than everywhere he turns it leads to her.

    it's obvious that he loves her but doesn't know how to prove it to her "words cant say and i cant do enough to prove its all for you" and she has been emotional about it all "Rain comes pouring down Falling from blue skies Words without a sound Coming from your eyes". (maybe she has blue eyes)

    it seems like he's trying to change things/ or wants to and they still cant fix everything quite yet "but then we'll trip and fall, wonderin if im blind"

    ultimately its a couple going through hardships. he loves her, even though they are going through a lot & he's confused about where they stand, but he is trying to show it and prove to her he does.

    General Comment:It's that eureka moment when you realize that the woman you're dating or your friend is the one yhou've been looking for and you're in love with her. I had a eureka moment like this three six months after dating my fiance.

    General Comment:I agree with blackendedlash,
    it sounds like they've already been together to me. they've known eachother as more than just friends before, and he's confused as to what he sees in her and why he feels this way about her.

    but he knows that all his roads lead to her and he can't just leave her

    i just love this song such a pick me up tune thumbs up
