Song Meaning
A question opens the song and never quite leaves the room: will you stay when I forget you, will you still love me when my love wanders elsewhere? The answer arrives not as argument but as a quiet voice speaking secrets that enclose, words that linger with sweet repose. That image of being wrapped around by something heard rather than seen carries the whole piece. The reply is plain and patient — I will never leave you waiting, because I am the One who has been waiting for you to turn around. Then the song pivots to a paradox: how can anyone contain a God who contains everything, when the house of the soul is far too small? The singer doesn't resolve it, just says he'll sing anyway. The closing lines turn the enclosure inside out, from being surrounded to mutual indwelling — I am in You and You are in me. It's a gentle, circling song, more conversation than declaration, built on the back-and-forth between a restless heart and a steady one.

Will You stay with me
When I forget You're there?
Will You still love me
When my love lingers elsewhere?
I hear You softly speaking
Secrets that enclose
Words that softly linger
With sweet repose
And I will never leave you
Leave you waiting 'round
'Cause I'm the One who's been waiting
For you to turn around
For you to turn around
How can I contain You
When You contain everything?
The house of my soul is far too small
Still I will sing
I hear you softly speaking
Secrets that enclose
Words that softly linger
With sweet repose
And I will never leave you
Leave you waiting 'round
'Cause I'm the One who's been waiting
For you to turn around
For you to turn around
Enclosed by You
In close I see
I am in You
And You are in me
Yes You are in me
