All That I Am

February 28, 2006 · 1 comment

I bought Rob Thomas' album Something To Be a while ago and have enjoyed getting to know his style now that he has gone solo. I heard this song and just thought it was beautiful. It's one that I can't quite figure out lyrically but it is my new fascination song (meaning, I tend to get stuck on songs for a time.)

I like this song for some reason I haven't figured out enough to verbalize yet.

All That I Am – Rob Thomas
I am the one winged bird for flying
Sinking quickly to the ground
See your faith in me subsiding
See you prime for giving in
I give you all that I am

I am the sound of love's arriving
Echoed softly on the sand
Lay your head upon my shoulder
Lay your hand within my hand
I give you all that I am

And I breathe where you breathe
Let me stand where you stand
With all that I am

I am the white dove for a soldier
Ever marching as to war
I would give my life to save you
I stand guarding at your door
I give you all that I am

I am the one winged bird for flying
Sinking quickly to the ground
I'm a blind man for a watchdog
I am prime for giving in
I'll show you all that I am

And I breathe so you breathe
Let me stand so you'll stand
With all that I am

I really like the lyrics to this song… I am gonna have to listen to it to fully appreciate it. In general, as I read the lyrics, I felt very safe. They seem very protective words to me.
