he is trying to say that sex was a great thing created by god but if its not done in merrage and not done in a way that pleases god then your only doing it for yourself and you get bored with it because god is not in it. thats why he says save me from myself. idk if that made since at all.. im not the best at explaining things. but i tried.
This is such an inspiring song. I love how Jon Foreman is able to write such thought-provoking music.
By the way, I posted the only piano cover of "Your Love Is Strong" on Youtube. I would really appreciate if you checked it out, if you have some time.
THATS SOO NOT FAIR... ughhh JON FOREMAN IS THE BEST PERSON IN THE WORLD AND REASON FOR EXISTENCE and i didnt meet him yet =[ =[ that makes me soo depressed i wish i could teleport to him
i love all of his songs. they are so good. he played this song the other night at an acoustic set he did at a coffee shop. it was so good. i love him so much, he should definently come out with a solo record..SWITCHFOOTS WRITING THEIR NEW RECORD NEXT WEEK!
:') you're making me cry out of jealousy. i was at that show too, and i wanted to stay behind but had to commute back home... i live an hour away, but at that time of night it would have taken two hours. but thanks for putting this up on your website...
ah, what we'd do for the love of switchfoot's music! :) yeah, i'm still beating myself on the head for not staying long enough - you have no idea. :( but chris (that translink robot lady) told me the last bus to my house was at 12:20 and i had to run for the skytrain or i'd miss my transfer.
next time i'll have foresight - maybe i'll call a cab - for now, i'll live vicariously through you...it's good enough. am already grateful enough they were in town again, anyway - so nice of jon to agree to do this, too. thx again!
this world is where i breathe, let it never be called home <3
possibly my favorite lyric.... ever. it's become my 'life motto', if you will. constantly reminding me.
this world is where i breathe, let it never be called home.

Sex is fun but he's simply bored of it.
aragorn767 2 years ago
@ZJPWC I think he's just saying, that sex is a huge thing in this world. it saturates everything in our culture.
and he's saying, yeah. it's great. but it's not fufilling.
he knows that nothing in this world can satisfy him. only God.
hope that was an okay explanation :)
