Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If ain't so awful and we're all together, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If you think I couldn't roll with you, believe me, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If ideally we should feel like this forever, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
(It just so) seems you're coming on
Breathe a little deeper, should you need to come undone
And let those colors run
(It just so) now you're having fun
So do this and get through this, and come find me when you're done
So we can be as one
If you think I couldn't hold my own, believe me, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If you need someone to tell you that you're special, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If you need someone to carry on, believe me, I can
Believe me, I can, believe me, I can
If you think no one is feeling what you're feeling, I am
Believe me, I am, believe me, I am
And the groove is slow
(It just so) seems you're coming on
Breathe a little deeper, should you need to come undone
And let those colors run
Now you're having fun
So do this and get through this, and come find me when you're done
So we can be as one
'Til the mornin'
'Til the mornin'
Oh
And the groove is slow
'Til the mornin'
And the groove is slow
Seems you're coming on
Breathe a little deeper, should you need to come undone
And let those colors run
Now you're having fun
So do this and get through this, and until we see the sun
You're my number one
'Til the mornin'
(It just so)
And the groove is slow
'Til the mornin'
And the groove is slow
We're both adults but we behave like children
Long as we got enough to keep on livin'
'Til the mornin'
'Til the mornin'
The lyrics to Tame Impala's "Breathe Deeper" speak to the idea of being there for someone, supporting them, and making them feel special. The first stanza addresses any doubts or insecurities someone may have about themselves, assuring them that they can hold their own and that they are not alone. The chorus encourages the listener to let go of any inhibitions and enjoy the moment, with the groovy music serving as the perfect backdrop. The second verse reiterates the idea of being a supportive presence for the listener, assuring them that they are not the only one feeling what they feel.
The bridge reveals some of the immaturity and playful nature of the relationship between the singer and the listener. Despite being adults, they behave like children and don't take life too seriously. As long as they have enough to live on, they can enjoy each other's company and have fun until the morning.
Overall, the song is a celebration of the power of relationships and connections, particularly in times of uncertainty and doubt. It is a reminder that even if we feel alone, there are always people who are there for us and want to see us thrive.
