Here With You
Naked Raven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dadandadab dududu dada
Take me on a journey
Carry me away
Fly me over water
To a different place
Where nothing is familiar
No one knows my name
Still I feel at home
With you
It feels like home
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
Dadandadab dududu dadadab
Dadandadab dududu dada
Another week another month
Calanders of hours
Overdue reunion
Slow to round the bend
Will you meet me at the station
Twirl me in your arms
Where I feel at home
With you
It feels like home
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
Take me on a journey
Carry me away
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
I love it
I love it here
I love it here with you my friend
Hitch a carpet ride
We`ll pass the time singing silly rhymes
Hiding in the back row
Throwing wrappers underneath the seat
Here and now looking out the window
Take a photograph
Surrender to the sky blue
Today I want to be with you
The lyrics of Naked Raven's song Here With You express a strong desire to escape from the mundaneness of everyday life and embark on a journey that takes the singer to an entirely different place. The opening lines "Take me on a journey, carry me away, fly me over water, to a different place" evoke a sense of adventure and excitement. The singer longs to be in a place where nothing is familiar and no one knows them, but where they still feel at home because of the person they are with. The repetition of the phrase "it feels like home" emphasizes the strong connection between the singer and the other person.
The second verse talks about an overdue reunion, possibly between two friends or lovers who have not seen each other in a while. The idea of meeting at the station and being twirled in the other person's arms creates an image of joy and excitement at the prospect of being reunited. The repetition of the phrase "I love it here" reinforces the singer's attachment to the person and the place they are in.
The final verse talks about the small moments of joy that can be found in everyday life, such as singing silly rhymes, hiding in the back row, and taking photographs. Surrendering to the "sky blue" and being present in the moment is important to the singer, and being with the other person makes these moments even more special.
Overall, the song is about finding home in the presence of a loved one and the sense of comfort and joy that comes with it.
