Song for You
Adrienne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oceans apart
Still in my heart
I feel so close to you
The continental divide
Is keeping you from my side
I just wanna be close to you
Thousands of miles away
I still feel the rush from when your hand was touching mine
Days drag on endlessly
And the nights I just bury them in this glass of wine
I'll save a space for you in my bed till you get here
I've got this place for you
In my head but sometimes I shed a tear because you're not here
Here
Memories they play
With my mind and my dreams
I can feel you right next to me
But I've slept a thousand nights
Since the last time
You were really right here with me
Thousands of miles away
I still feel the rush from when your hand was touching mine
Days drag on endlessly
And the nights I just bury them in this glass of wine
I've still got a space for you in my life
I know we can work it out
Cause there's only space for you
In my heart a love that I won't do without
Space for you
But you're not here
Space for you
Cause you're not here
Cause you're not here
Cause you're not here
Space for you
No you're not here
Space for you
Cause you're not here
Space for you




I'll save a space for you
Cause you're not here

Adrienne - The Calling (Lyrics)

I've been thinking about you, my love
And all the crazy things that you put me through
Now I'm coming around, Throwing it back to you
Were you thinking of me when you kissed him
Could you taste me when you licked his skin
All the while I showered you with trust and promises
What I'm needing now is some sweet revenge
To get back all that I lost then
I gave you all I had to give, but I could never reach you

Adrienne, I thought I knew you
Once again, you used me, used me
Adrienne, I should have left you
Long before you used me, Used me up

Spent my money, drove my car
I treated you like a shining star
But in my sky all burnt out you are
And I'll have the last laugh, when I see you walking with
some other guy
'Cause I know you're gone end up all alone
So take these words, some good advice
All you've done gonna come back twice
You never cared how much it hurt, I really need to tell you

Adrienne, I thought I knew you
Once again, you used me, used me
Adrienne, I should have left you
Long before you used me, Used me up
(You used me up)

What I'm needing now's some sweet revenge
To get back all that I lost then
I gave you all that I had to give, but I could never reach you

Adrienne, I thought I knew you
Once again, you used me, used me
Adrienne, I should have left you
Long before you used me, Used me

Andrienne , long before Andrienne
Oh Andrienne, Andrienne, oh yeah

Love this song ❤

Eu sei que essa ferida está ardendo dentro de você, eu sei que é difícil aceitar tudo que aconteceu, e você fica buscando por respostas, tentando entender porque tudo chegou á esse ponto. Eu sei que você sente como se tivesse levado uma facada no peito e até o ar chega a faltar... E você sofre, se questiona, chora... Pensamentos vem e vão e bagunçam cada vez mais sua cabeça...

Eu quero que você olhe pra sua trajetória de vida, olhe quantas vezes você chorou, quantas vezes sua única opção foi superar com o tempo tantas coisas que te aconteceram.
Você tem uma força aí dentro gigantesca! (Você apenas não enxerga isso agora) Você tem o poder de ser feliz, e eu acredito nisso, sabe por que ? Porque você já passou por muita coisa e está de pé! E isso mostra que você nasceu pra vencer! A dor muitas vezes nos cega e não nos deixa ver o colorido que ainda existe.

Faça um exercício: Feche os seus olhos, se imagina com 5 anos de idade, olhe pra essa criança e diga pra ela: "Você nasceu pra ser feliz". Repita várias vezes até você sentir que você tem capacidade de se fazer feliz novamente, porque tudo depende apenas de você.

Você consegue! Nunca se esqueça disso! Essa dor é passageira e vai passar logo logo...
Você é maior que tudo isso!
