Your Song
Ellie Goulding Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
This feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can
Easily hide
I don't have much money
But boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where
We both could live
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do
See I've forgotten if
They're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is
What I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
If I was a sculptor
But then again no
Or a girl who makes potions in
A traveling show
I know it's not much but
It's the best I can do
My gift is my song and
This one's for you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And you can tell everybody
This is your song
It may be quite simple but
Now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you're in the world
In Ellie Goulding's song "Your Song," the singer expresses an outpouring of emotions towards someone special. The singer acknowledges that they are feeling something inside that is difficult to hide, hinting at a deep, intense love. However, the singer is not wealthy and cannot afford extravagant gifts for them both, but if they could, they would buy a big house where they could live together. The singer's reciprocated love is expressed when they comment on the person's sweet eyes, which are the sweetest they have ever seen.
The chorus of the song rings out loud and clear as the singer declares that the song is the other person's song. They acknowledge that the song may be plain and straightforward, but it is their unique way of expressing their love for the person. The singer hopes that the person doesn't mind the simplicity of the song and that they appreciate the message behind it. In the final verse, the singer acknowledges that they are not skilled in sculpture or potion-making, but they can offer the gift of their own music, dedicating this song to the person they love.

It's a little bit funny
I feel a bit embarrassed
This feeling inside
This emotion I feel
I'm not one of those who can
I'm not the kind of person who can
Easily hide
Easily conceal their emotions
I don't have much money
I'm not wealthy
But boy if I did
But if I did have money
I'd buy a big house where
I would purchase a large home where
We both could live
Both of us could reside
So excuse me forgetting
Please forgive me for forgetting
But these things I do
But sometimes I do things
See I've forgotten if
I can't recall if
They're green or they're blue
Your eyes are green or blue
Anyway the thing is
The point is
What I really mean
What I actually mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes
Your eyes are the most beautiful
I've ever seen
I have ever seen
And you can tell everybody
You can inform anyone
This is your song
This song belongs to you
It may be quite simple but
It may be basic but
Now that it's done
Now that it is complete
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't object
That I put down in words
That I wrote
How wonderful life is
How fantastic life is
Now you're in the world
Now that you exist
If I was a sculptor
If I had artistic talent
But then again no
But that is not the case
Or a girl who makes potions in
Or a woman who creates concoctions while traveling in
A traveling show
A travelling exhibition
I know it's not much but
I understand it is not significant, but
It's the best I can do
It is the most I am capable of
My gift is my song and
My talent is in singing, and
This one's for you
This song is dedicated to you
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Vocalization
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Repeating Vocalization
And you can tell everybody
You can inform anyone
This is your song
This song belongs to you
It may be quite simple but
It may be basic but
Now that it's done
Now that it is complete
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't object
That I put down in words
That I wrote
How wonderful life is
How fantastic life is
Now you're in the world
Now that you exist

My late husband sang this to me when we were dating. We got married and a great life for 25yrs., and he died. Now I'm singing this song for you.
