I Think I Might Be Grounded In You (New Mix)

Baby you seem relatively fundamental,
Antecedent to everything about me.
I think this might be something a little bit special:
I think this might be metaphysical priority.

I think I might be grounded in you.
I think I might be grounded in you.

Nothing ‘reduces’ my feelings for you; that’s misleading.
Deriving pleasure just makes this whole thing more intense.
When I say this, it’ll sound terribly asymmetric,
But you must come before me at least in this sense.

Some people think this is a relation of convenience.
Some people think it’s nothing more than supervenience.
But I think this might be hyperintensional.
My need for you is more than merely modal.

I think I might be grounded in you.
I think I might be grounded in you.

Some people say this relationship is impossible.
Some people say they don’t understand what I mean
When I tell them how much and how I depend on you:
They want to keep their metaphysics clean,

And they won’t believe I’m grounded in you.
They can’t believe I’m grounded in you.
But my belief is grounded in you.
