Only You

The speaker is focused on someone they miss and still need emotionally. At first, the lyrics suggest a return or reunion, but the person seems to be moving farther away. The repeated refrain makes the relationship feel like the speaker’s main source of comfort. As the song develops, longing turns into uncertainty and weariness: the speaker says this will take a long time and wonders whether the other person understands.

Several images suggest distance and difficulty communicating. Looking through a window makes the relationship seem visible but out of reach, like watching a love story rather than living it. The line about hearing the speaker is a plea to be noticed. A “closed door” can mean literal privacy, but it may also suggest emotional separation or a relationship kept hidden. The speaker’s question about the other person understanding a touch hints at closeness that words may not express.

The phrase “it’s only a game” is ambiguous: it could describe a confusing, perhaps unreliable relationship, or simply the speaker’s effort to dismiss feelings that remain strong. Likewise, “all I ever knew” may be an expression of devotion rather than a literal claim that the speaker knows nothing else. Overall, the lyrics hold both hope for closeness and the painful sense that it may not be returned.
