Say Something
Alex And Sierra (Studio Version) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I'll be the one, if you want me to
Anywhere, I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
And I
Am feeling so small
It was over my head
And I
Will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere, I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
And I
Will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love
And I'm saying goodbye
Say something, I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
And anywhere, I would've followed you
Say something, I'm giving up on you
Say something, I'm giving up on you

I'm so glad they won, not because they have the greatest of voices but because they represent true love and innocence that is sorely missed in this troubled world that we live in today. Listening to them makes me forget for a moment all my problems! I hope they enjoy an unspoiled career without being corrupted by greedy, money making producers and all that comes from being famous. Best of luck to them!

Such an amazing song for these two to sing, especially when they are so much in love. Just absolutely beautiful. I have been with my husband for 18 years now, and I would not change a thing about it, I love the way he looks at me when he sings to me, and how he holds my hand and loves me for me and our children the same way. I feel that Alex and Sierra make an awesome couple and they remind me of me and my husband when we first started out. I love these two, their so awesome, I think their going to win, and I pray they do :) Good luck Alex and Sierra, your amazing :) <3
