Her
ATtOM Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As a kid they told me love was made up
But I used to tell them they were wrong
'Cause the blue-eyed girl that made me wake up
Is still right behind me in this song
Stood they counted every heartbeat
Thinking about the words to say
Try not to understand our feeling
Would it ever go away

Now those were the days
Before you had to go away
Now I'm dancing by myself
I'm in the rain
Now it's getting rather cold
And I just wanted you to know
That if my dreams will ever be
Will you come dancing next to me
Next to me

Next to me
Next to me

You told me we would be forever
But maybe we were just too young
I wonder if you still remember
When we were dancing in the sun

Now those were the days
Before you had to go away
Now I'm dancing by myself
I'm in the rain
Now it's getting rather cold
And I just wanted you to know
That if my dreams will ever be
Will you come dancing next to me
Next to me





Next to me

Line by Line Meaning

As a kid they told me love was made up
When I was young, people said that love wasn't real


But I used to tell them they were wrong
But I disagreed and believed in love


'Cause the blue-eyed girl that made me wake up
Because there was a girl with blue eyes who made me feel alive


Is still right behind me in this song
Her memory and the feelings she gave me are still with me


Stood they counted every heartbeat
I stood there counting my heartbeats


Thinking about the words to say
Trying to figure out how to express my feelings


Try not to understand our feeling
Others may not understand our connection and emotions


Would it ever go away
I wonder if these feelings will ever fade


Now those were the days
Those were happy times


Before you had to go away
Before you left and things changed


Now I'm dancing by myself
Now I'm alone


I'm in the rain
It's a metaphor for how I feel sad and lonely


Now it's getting rather cold
Things are getting worse and more difficult


And I just wanted you to know
I wish you could understand how I feel


That if my dreams will ever be
I wonder if my dreams will come true


Will you come dancing next to me
Will you be there with me if they do?


Next to me
By my side


Next to me
By my side


You told me we would be forever
You promised we'd always be together


But maybe we were just too young
Maybe we were too naive and immature


I wonder if you still remember
I wonder if you still have memories of us


When we were dancing in the sun
When we were happy and carefree
