Erkin Koray Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

İnan ki
Senden başka
Hiç kimse yok içimde
Kimse yok içimde
Yüzüne bakmasam da
Başımı çevirsem de
Seni her gördüğümde
Seni her gördüğümde

İnan ki
Senden başka
Hiç kimse yok içimde
Kimse yok içimde
Ne kadar kırgın olsam
Dargın olsam da bile
İnan ki
Senden başka
Senden başka
Hiç kimse yok içimde
Kimse yok içimde

Overall Meaning

The song "Seni Her Gördüğümde" by Turkish rock musician Erkin Koray is a poignant and emotional exploration of the lasting impact that a past love can have on someone. The lyrics express the idea that, despite the passage of time and the emergence of new experiences, the memory and presence of this love continues to haunt the singer. The repetition of the line "seni her gördüğümde" ("every time I see you") underscores this theme, emphasizing the inescapability of the emotions and memories that the singer associates with this former lover.


The opening lines, "inan ki / senden başka / hiç kimse yok içimde" ("believe me / besides you / there is no one inside me"), suggest that the singer has moved on from the relationship in some sense but still feels a deep sense of emptiness and longing. The repetition of the line "kimse yok içimde" ("there is no one inside me") further highlights this feeling of isolation and emotional barrenness. The singer acknowledges that they can't even look at the person in question without feeling this way - "yüzüne bakmasam da / başımı çevirsem de / seni her her gördüğümde" ("even if I don't look at your face / even if I turn my head / every time I see you").


Later in the song, the lyrics shift to a slightly more hopeful note, with the repetition of "senden başka / hiç kimse yok içimde" ("besides you / there is no one inside me") taking on a more positive connotation. The singer seems to suggest that, no matter what else happens in their life, this past love will always hold a unique and irreplaceable place in their heart. This theme is further accentuated by the repetition of "inan ki / senden başka" ("believe me / besides you") - the phrasing is nearly identical to the opening of the song but now carries a sense of resignation rather than sadness.


Overall, "Seni Her Gördüğümde" is a deeply affecting song that explores the powerful emotions of love, loss, and memory. The lyrics capture the bittersweet nature of lingering feelings for a past love and the way that those emotions can shape someone's inner world.
