I'm Lost Without You
Blink182(블링크 182) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I swear that I can go on forever again
Please let me know that my one bad day will end
I will go down as your lover, your friend
Give me your lips and with one kiss we begin
Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you

I'll leave my room open till sunrise for you
I'll keep my eyes patiently focused on you
Where are you now I can hear footsteps I'm dreaming
And if you will, keep me from waking to believe this

Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you

Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of being alone
Cause I am, I'm lost without you
Are you afraid of leaving tonight
Cause I am, I'm lost without you





I'm lost without you
I'm lost without you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Blink182's "I'm Lost Without You" express a deep sense of longing for a significant other. The singer admits he can go on forever, but he is in need of assurance that his one bad day will come to an end soon. He professes his love and his friendship, asking for a kiss as a beginning. The chorus appears thrice, in which the singer asks if the significant other is afraid of being alone or leaving tonight as he is lost without them.


In the second verse, the singer suggests that he will leave his room open until sunrise for his lover, implying that he is willing to wait all night for them to come back. The line "Where are you now I can hear footsteps I'm dreaming" conveys that the singer is hopeful for their return and may be dreaming of their presence. He wants to believe in this dream so much that he begs the significant other to keep him from waking up.


The song's overall mood is somber, reflective of the longing for a lost love. The singer is vulnerable and requires the presence of the significant other to continue with life.
