Right Here Waiting
Antony Costa/Blue/Duncan James/Lee Ryan/Simon Webbe Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Look for something new,
There's been too much goin' down,
I Don't know what to do.
They say that what you never had you never miss,
So tell me why I never knew a love like this.
Right here (nothing else matters)
Waiting (things are getting better)
You're the (only thing that matters)
One thing (I'm never givin' up).
Should have seen it from the start,
That you were always there.
Ain't no tearing us apart,
I can't believe you're here.
They say that what you never had you never miss
So tell me why I never knew a love like this.
[Chorus]
I'm needing in my life, It's taken time for me to realise,
How come I never saw you standing right before my eyes?
Right here waiting
They say that what you never had you never miss
So tell me why I never knew a love like this.
[Chorus]
I'm needing in my life,
It's taken time for me to realize,
How come I never saw you,
Standing right before my eyes ?
The song "Right Here Waiting" by Blue is a testimony of finally finding the one you have always been looking for. The first verse talks about getting back to personal stability after a difficult time while searching for something new. The singer reflects on all the love he has seen from others, love that he has never known until now. The chorus then repeats the phrase "Right here waiting, you're the one thing I'm never giving up". The song then discusses the journey of finally finding the love you have been looking for, and realizing that it was right in front of you all along.
The lyrics of this song are simple yet meaningful. The message is about being ready to take the next step in love and committing to a relationship. The song emphasizes how much the person means to the singer, and how much more their lives improve with the person in it. It is a representation of how much we can miss out on in life when we don't open our eyes to the things that really matter.
