Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll be the clay
You can be the blacksmith
I'll be the blade
You can be the poet
I'll be the song
You can be the sunlight
I'll be the dawn
You be love
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
You be love
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
Love you like no other (I'll be your lover)
I will be your compass
If you'll be my north
I will be your sailor
If you'll be my shore
You can be the gravity
I'll be the fall
You can be my everything
I'll be your all
You be love
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
You be love
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
Love you like no other (I'll be your lover)
If you were heaven, I would gladly take my last breath
If you are the edge, then I would gladly take the next step
Be the rain, coming down, be the flood
Come on take me 'til I, take me 'til I drown
I need you now
You be love
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)
I will be your love (I'll be your lover)

The song "You Be Love" by Avicii is a beautiful collaboration between the Swedish DJ and producer and the English singer-songwriter, Billy Raffoul. The lyrics of the song are a testament to the deep love and devotion that two people can hold for each other. The verses of the song use powerful metaphors to express the idea that one partner can be the crafting force while the other is the one crafted, "You can be the potter, I'll be the clay, You can be the blacksmith, I'll be the blade, You can be the poet, I'll be the song," suggesting that two people form the perfect union as they complement and complete each other.
The chorus of the song, with the repeated phrase, "You be love, and I will be your love," reinforces the message that love is an activity in which one must participate fully to be successful. The notion of being each other's "everything" is also reflected powerfully in the lyrics, showing how one partner can be the gravity, and the other can fall. One could be heaven, while the other would be content to take their last breath. The song aptly conveys that one is incomplete without the other and that they complement each other in every way.
The song's message is about how two souls come together in a union and celebrate their commitment and deep love. It is a beautiful and touching tribute to the cherished bond between two people. It emphasises that love is not just a feeling, but a choice and an activity of engagement that requires active participation. The song is a testament to the idea that true love is about supporting someone until the end.
