Dubstar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Any place you want me
I'll be around anywhere
Any time I'm free
In time the stakes will change
Even predestination couldn't stay
I don't mind
I don't mind
I'll be around anywhere
Any place you want me
I'll be around anywhere
Any time I'm free
In time this place is mine
You know the inspiration in my smile
I don't mind
I don't mind
Leave it all behind
I don't mind
The lyrics to Dubstar's song "Anywhere" express a willingness to be available and present for someone, no matter where they are or when they need support. The repetition of "I'll be around anywhere, any place you want me" emphasizes the singer's dedication to being there for the other person, and how much they prioritize this relationship. The lyrics also highlight a sense of acceptance and adaptability, as the singer acknowledges that things may change and they don't mind adjusting to fit the situation. The line "even predestination couldn't stay" suggests that the singer is open to the unpredictable nature of life and relationships.
The second verse continues this theme of flexibility, with the singer claiming that "in time this place is mine." This suggests that they are willing to go wherever the other person may want to go, whether it's a physical location or an emotional state. The reference to "inspiration in my smile" hints at a deeper connection between the two people, and how the singer is motivated by their relationship. The final line, "leave it all behind, I don't mind," reinforces the idea that the singer is willing to let go of anything else in their life in order to prioritize this bond.

One of the 1990's lost tunes. Totally gorgeous song from the age of Britpop.

Always and forever, thank you to Great Britain and the British people whose creativity, since the 1960s, has given the rest of the World hundreds of unique bands such as the Dubstar and music of unparalleled beauty, quirkiness and atmosphere. What would our lives have been without British bands? Thank you. And love, admiration and adoration.
P.S.: "Disgraceful" is my favourite "girlish-sounding" album all of times and "Anywhere" one of the most "summerish-sounding" ones.
