Here I Am
♫April Sixth Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Retreating from the life, which you live
Days ago it made me sad to think that everything wouldn't be ok
And to know that we would break away!
They told me not to let you go away!
So, here I am
They told me that the feelings wouldn't go away
Here I am...
Here I am...
Well, let's start this over
'Cause it sickens me that I'm the only one, who was thinking how it would be
I know that this is how we want to be, so innocent in all the things
And start to live inside again!
They told me not to let you go away!
So, here I am
They told me that the feelings wouldn't go away
So, here I am
Here I am...
Here I am...
Your life of solitude, why don't you give it up?
And take away all the messed up fear you hold within
Don't wanna be the same
You know you make me sick
Yea, I'm your only son who ever cared which way you went?
Your life of solitude, why don't you give it up?
And take away all the messed up fear you hold within.
You'll wanna be the same, you'll never be the same, I'll never be the same
They told me not to let you go away!
So, here I am
They told me that the feelings wouldn't go away
So, here I am
Here I am...
Here I am...
Only for a moment so
Here I am, here I am, here I am
Well, the days are getting shorter for you
Here I am, here I am, here I am
Yea, only for a moment so
Here I am, here I am, here I am

Line by Line Meaning
Here you lay in darkness, all by yourself
You are lying down in complete darkness, with no one around.
Retreating from the life, which you live
You want to escape from your current life and get away.
Days ago it made me sad to think that everything wouldn't be ok
I was sad when I thought that things might go wrong.
And to know that we would break away!
I knew we would have to separate from each other.
They told me not to let you go away!
So, here I am
They told me that the feelings wouldn't go away
So, here I am
People advised me to not let you go, so I am here for you. They also said that my feelings for you would not disappear, which is why I am still here.
Well, let's start this over
'Cause it sickens me that I'm the only one, who was thinking how it would be
I know that this is how we want to be, so innocent in all the things
And start to live inside again!
Let's begin again because it disgusts me that I was the only one imagining our future. I know this is the way we both want to be, with innocence and purity in our hearts and start to live fully again.
Your life of solitude, why don't you give it up?
And take away all the messed up fear you hold within
Don't wanna be the same
You know you make me sick
Yea, I'm your only son who ever cared which way you went?
Why don't you leave your isolated life behind and let go of your fears? I don't want to be like you. I care about you, but the way you are makes me sick. Am I the only one who cares about where you are going in life?
You'll wanna be the same, you'll never be the same, I'll never be the same
You may want to stay the same, but you cannot. Neither can I.
Only for a moment so
Here I am, here I am, here I am
Well, the days are getting shorter for you
Here I am, here I am, here I am
Yea, only for a moment so
Here I am, here I am, here I am
I am only here for a short while, but I am here. Your time is running out, and I am here for you. I will only be here for a brief moment, but I am here.

I can be tough
I can be strong
But with you, it's not like that at all
There's a girl
That gives a shit
Behind this wall
You've just walked through it
And I remember, all those crazy things you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it, just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
Damn, damn, damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, here, here
I wish you were here
Damn, damn, damn
What I'd do to have you
Near, near, near
I wish you were here
I love the way you are
It's who I am, don't have to try hard
We always say, say it like it is
And the truth is that I really miss
All those crazy things you said
You left them running through my head
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did
Didn't think about it, just went with it
You're always there, you're everywhere
But right now I wish you were here
Damn, damn, damn
What I'd do to have you
Here, here, here
I wish you were here
Damn, damn, damn
What I'd do to have you
Near, near, near
I wish you were here
No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you know
That I never wanna let go
Let go, oh, oh
No, I don't wanna let go
I just wanna let you to know
That I never wanna let go
(let go let go let go let go let go let go let go)
Damn, damn, damn,
What I'd do to have you
Here, here, here
I wish you were here (i wish you were)
Damn, damn, damn
