hey you
B.L.S Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You almost have to lose your mind
To find yourself sometimes
You have to close your eyes to see

Just when I thought I'd reached the end
You let it all begin
You made it easy to be me
You're the wall I hide behind
You shelter me from time to time
You're reaching out
When I feel like giving in
You're the door that I walk through
When I need someone to turn to
Hey Jesus
You're my best friend

You're the only one
I've ever found
That didn't give up
When I let 'em down
I guess that's how love's supposed to be
When there's no one else around
I fall down to the ground
I feel so tall down on my knees

You're the wall I hide behind
You shelter me from time to time
You're reaching out
When I feel like giving in
Oh, you're the door that I walk through
When I need someone to turn to
Hey Jesus
You're my best friend





Hey hey Jesus
You're my best friend
