‘I Was Jesus In Your Veins’, recorded with Hatcham Social’s Toby Kidd at Studt’s Sleepwalker Studios, is the first taste of what to expect from the new album which is set for release this year.
Amy performed at a rare London show at the Young and Lost Club at The Nest in Dalston where she unveiled tracks from the new album for the first time with a full band line up.
Amy Studt began making music at a very earl age and was signed to Simon Fuller’s company at the age of fourteen and then to the Polydor label very soon after. She released her first single, ‘Just a Little Girl’, at the age of sixteen, which charted at number 14 in the UK pop charts and reachednumber 1 on US radio play. Her second single, ‘Misfit’, reached number 6 and this was soon followed by her album ‘False Smiles’ which went on to sell 260,000 copies. For a while Amy stayed out of the public eye, but returned in 2008 with the ‘My Paper Made Men’ album.
Her ongoing stage fright again caused her to withdraw from the limelight, but she continued to craft her strange and beautiful take on pop music at her own studio. Combining the drama of Bowie era ‘Aladdin Sane’, the vocal innovations of the Shangri-Las and Mazzy Star’s sultry moodiness, Amy Studt is set to deliver her most complete and accomplished set of songs to date.

If Only
Amy Studt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I get time to myself
And have nothing to do
You can't help feel the bitter sweet
That searches through and through
I want someone to hear me
Someone to care for
Someone to share with
Someone to stay with
Someone to lay with
If only I could find somebody
Someone who will understand
If only I could find the words
To give me what I need
If only I could find somebody
Who'll give me a helping hand
I can't let life pass me by
I'm tired of being me
I've been lonely for too long
And selfishly I've cried
I need to pull myself back up
I need to turn the tide
I want someone to hear me
Someone to need me
Someone to care for
Someone to share with
Someone to stay with
Someone to lay with
If only I could find somebody
Someone who will understand
If only I could find the words
To give me what I need
If only I could find somebody
Who'll give me a helping hand
I can't let life pass me by
I'm tired of being me
So how long will it be
Til I can let go
I need to turn the tide
I want someone to hear me
Someone to need me
Someone to care for
Someone to share with
Someone to stay with
Someone to lay with
If only I could find somebody
Someone who will understand
If only I could find the words
To give me what I need
If only I could find somebody
Who'll give me a helping hand
I can't let life pass me by
I'm tired of being me
So how long will it be
If only I could find somebody
Someone who will understand
If only I could find the words
To give me what I need
If only I could find somebody
Who'll give me a helping hand
I can't let life pass me by
I'm tired of being me
So how long will it be
Til I can let go
Til I can let go
Til I can let go
The song "If Only" by Amy Studt is a heartfelt appeal to find love and companionship. The lyrics convey the feeling of loneliness and longing for a loving relationship, and the desire to find someone who will understand, comfort, and support. The opening lines, "When I get time to myself, And have nothing to do, You can't help feel the bitter sweet, That searches through and through" immediately set the tone of the song, highlighting the contradictory feeling of wanting to be alone, yet needing someone there for comfort and happiness.
The lyrics revolve around the idea of finding a partner who will be there in both the good and bad times. The lines "I want someone to hear me, Someone to need me, Someone to care for, Someone to share with" convey the desire for love and affection, while the lines "I can't let life pass me by, I'm tired of being me" suggest a sense of desperation and urgency in finding that special someone. The repetition of the phrase "If only" throughout the song emphasizes the unfulfilled desire and the longing for love.
The final lines, "So how long will it be, Til I can let go, Til I can let go, Til I can let go" are a plea to find someone to love and ultimately let go of the loneliness and sadness. These lines signify the hope that the singer has in finding that person who will bring joy and happiness into her life.
Overall, "If Only" is a poignant and relatable song about the universal human desire to find love and companionship.
