True Believer
Avicii Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wasn't always the brightest, 'till I learn how to dance
You got me thinking love will come around but you never gave me a chance
A pride I've been the tallest, 'till I learn how to jump
You got me thinking love will come around but you never say I'm the one

If I could make you, make you fall in love with me
If I could make you, make you fall in love
Wish I could make you, make you fall in love
Baby love will come around if you want it enough
Baby love will come around if you want it enough

Love will come around

Baby love will come around
I wasn't always the brightest, they say you only live once
So, you got me thinking, I'm so glad I found you
Life's what you make it, so here it comes, we go

If I could make you, make you fall in love with me
If I could make you, make you fall in love
Wish I could make you, make you fall in love
Baby love will come around if you want it enough
Baby love will come around if you want it enough

If you're a true believer




If you're a true believer
Love will come around

Overall Meaning

The song "True Believer" sung by Avicii featuring Chris Martin is a song that speaks to the struggles of finding love and the pains of unrequited love. The opening lines suggest that the singer was not always confident or sure of themselves until they discovered the power of dance, which could be interpreted as the act of letting go and losing oneself in the moment. Despite this newfound confidence, the singer has had feelings for someone who never reciprocated them, leaving them feeling rejected and worthless. The chorus of the song expresses the desire to make the subject of the singer's affection fall in love with them, while also acknowledging that ultimately love will come on its own terms if one wants it enough. The repeated phrase "If you're a true believer, love will come around" can be interpreted as a call to have faith in the possibility of love and not give up on finding it.


Overall, "True Believer" is a song that speaks to the universal experience of searching for love and the powerlessness that comes with not being able to control another person's feelings. The lyrics are straightforward and relatable, while the melody is catchy and easy to sing along to.

I wasn't always the brightest
Until I learned how to dance
You got me thinking
Love will come around but you
Never gave me a chance
I might not been the tallest
Until I learned how to jump
You got me thinking
Love will come around but you
Never say I'm the one
[Chorus: Chris Martin]
If I could make you, make you fall in love with me
If I could make you, make you fall in love
Wish I could make you, make you fall in love
Maybe love will come around, if you want it enough
Maybe love will come around, if you want it enough

[Post-Chorus]
Love will come around
Maybe love will come around for us

[Verse 2: Avicii]
I wasn't always the bravest
They say you only live once
So you got me thinking
I'm so glad I found ya
Life's what you make it, so here it comes

[Chorus: Chris Martin]
If I could make you, make you fall in love with me
If I could make you, make you fall in love
Wish I could make you, make you fall in love
Maybe love will come around, if you want it enough
Maybe love will come around, if you want it enough

[Outro: Avicii]
If you're a true believer
If you're a true believer
Love will come around, love will come around for us
