Beside You
Andreas Kümmert Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a water glass
Like a fire in the tall green grass
Like a bowl of tears
That i've collected for years
Just like an indiscribable feeling
Like a word without a meaning
Like an unexpected healing
Beside you
All those pictures are in motion
And i' d make myself a fool
Beside you
All these lines become a painting
When you laugh it's entertaining
And so true
Beside you
Beside you
Now you're gone and all that's left
Are some memories in a casket
Some written words in my basket
And those tears that i've collected
Your perfume is still around
And that hear ribbon i found
In the corner
That's how i feel
Beside you
All those pictures are in motion
And i' d make myself a fool
Beside you
All these lines become a painting
When you laugh it's entertaining
And so true
Beside you
Beside you
I still can feel you near me
Beside you
All those pictures are in motion
And i' d make myself a fool
Beside you
All these lines become a painting
When you laugh it's entertaining
And so true
Beside you
All these pictures are in motion
And i' d make myself a fool
Beside you
All these lines become a painting
When you laugh it's entertaining
And so true
Beside you
Beside you
Andreas Kümmert's song Beside You is a heartfelt ballad that describes a range of emotions following a breakup. The lyrics use vivid metaphors to express the different feelings experienced during and after the relationship. The first verse begins with a comparison to a thunderstorm in a water glass, which is a small and contained occurrence but still significant in its power. The line "like a bowl of tears I've collected for years" is a poignant reference to the accumulated pain and sadness felt throughout the relationship. Later, the singer describes the remnants of the relationship that are left behind, including memories, written words, and a physical reminder of their partner's presence - a heart ribbon.
The chorus "Beside You" repeats throughout the song and serves as both a declaration of the singer's desire to be close to their partner once again and an acknowledgement that all of their emotions are tied to their former love. The lyrics also suggest that being with this person brings everything to life. Even simple things, like lines and pictures, become vivid and entertaining. Overall, the song captures the sense of longing and loss that comes with the end of a relationship and the bittersweet memories that remain.

This dude can sing!!! It’s funny he’s German, when he speaks normally besides German, he has a strong think accent. But when he sings, perfect pronunciations. There are a lot of international artists that have an accent and it’s noticed in their singing when singing in English. Not him. Very cool. Great singer. One of my favorites.
