Exhale
Beverly Crowder Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everyone falls in love sometime
And sometimes it's wrong
And sometimes it's right
But for every, for every, every, every, every win

Someone, someone, someone, someone
Someone, someone, someone must fail, yes
But there comes a point when, oh yeah, ooh

When you exhale, yo, say, say

Shoop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop

Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doo

Hearts are often broken
When there are words unspoken
In your soul there's answers to your prayers
But if you're searching for

A place you know a familiar face
Somewhere to go
You should search inside yourself
And you're halfway there

Sometimes you'll laugh and sometimes you'll cry
Life never tells us the when's or why's
But when you've got friends to wish you well
You'll find a point when you will exhale

Shoop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop

Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doop shoop shoop

Shoo be doop shoop shoop
Shoo be doo

Overall Meaning

In "Exhale," Beverly Crowder talks about the ups and downs of falling in love. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't, but it's all a part of the journey. For every win, someone else has to lose, and that's just the way life goes. However, there comes a point when you need to stop and take a breath. That's when you exhale.

Crowder goes on to say that hearts are often broken when there are words unspoken. Sometimes we look outside of ourselves for answers, but really the answers are within. Our souls hold the solutions to our problems, and no matter what life throws our way, we can always find a familiar face and a safe place within ourselves. We may laugh and cry, but with the support of friends, we can find a point where we can exhale and let out all of our worries and struggles.

Overall, the message of "Exhale" is to take a step back, breathe, and find the strength within yourself to keep going. Life is full of challenges, but if we have our own back and the support of loved ones, we can make it through.
