This song has apparently been sitting on my iPod since 2006. I’m sure I’ve accidentally listened to it once or twice, but I guess it never really registered on my consciousness. For some ill-articulated reason related to the socially-avoidant state-of-mind I’ve been in, I’ve been skipping this song whenever it came up.

In the air I flew.
Through the clouds I fall.
Through the country I've walked.
In front of temples I've stood.
Before the ocean I pray.
And I said your name.

In the air I flew.
Through the clouds I fall.
And all the things I've tried to say
were never easy to explain.
They were always meant for you.

And all the memories that were made
for years and years
I've chased this day.
They were always for you.
Always for you.

In the air I breath.
Through the clouds I see.
Through the cities I've walked.
In the castles I dreamed.
On the mountain I climb
when I call your name.

In the air I flew.
Through the clouds I fell.
And all the things I've tried to change
were never easy to contain.
They were always meant for you.
Always for you.

And all the memories will never fade
for years and years
in my heart you'll stay.
It was always for you.
Always for you.
Always for you.

And all the pieces that remain,
they will build a place for us to stay.
They were always meant for you.
Always for you.

And all the chances that we take
for years and years
we'll have this place.
They were always for you.
Always for you.
