Ever felt like a deer caught in headlights, but the headlights are someone's eyes? David Gray sure has. This heartfelt tune is an ode to that electrifying feeling when love zaps through your veins like a bolt of lightning. Our protagonist is smitten to the point of babbling incoherently, and he's begging for pardon if he comes off as a bit peculiar. The man's so deep into his lover's gaze, it's like plunging into an ocean of enigma. He'd rather shout from rooftops or fake his demise than face the agony of losing her. In short, it’s a poetic plea from a love-struck soul who’s both enchanted and terrified by the power of affection.
