Here I Am

analyzed by Leonard Fabro & Joy Shiraishi

1. Here I am, playing with those memories again

Going through the daily round

2. And just when I thought time had set me free

As we go along in life

3. Those thoughts of you keep taunting me.

Feelings of imtimidation

4. Holding you, a feeling I never outgrew

There is loyalty, one of the factors of love

5. Though each and every part of me has tried

Trying to overcome intimidation/negative emotions

6. Only you can fill that space inside.

Feeling insecure, negative emotions, a cupidity factor

7. So there's no sense pretending, my heart is not mending.

Negative emotions have set in

*Chorus*

8. Just when I thought I was over you

Referring to interior dialog--inner thoughts

9. And just when I thought I could stand on my own

Referring to interior dialog--inner thoughts

10. Oh, baby those memories come crashing through

Low self-esteem, one of the cupidity factors

11. And I just can't go on without you.

Feeling intimidation

12. On my own, I've tried to make the best of it alone.

Referring to interior dialog

13. I've done everything I can to ease the pain,

Trying to transform negative emotions

14. But only you can stop the rain

Very insecure, negative emotions

15. I just can't live without you, I miss everything about you

Feeling intimidation

Chorus: Just when I thought I was over you...
