You Are The Reason
Calum Scott Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now
And there goes my mind racin'
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathin'
I'm hopeless now
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
There goes my hands shakin'
And you are the reason
My heart keeps bleedin'
And I need you now
And if I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour of every day
Keeping you safe
And I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
(I don't wanna fight no more)
(I don't wanna hide no more)
(I don't wanna cry no more)
(Come back, I need you to hold me closer now)
You are the reason, oh (hold me a little closer, now)
(Just a little closer now)
(Come a little closer now)
(I need you to hold me tonight)
I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken
'Cause I need you to see
That you are the reason
The first verse of Calum Scott's "You Are The Reason" emotionally portrays the singer's desperate need for the one he loves. He is losing sleep over the absence of his loved one and he is in a state of hopelessness, as he cannot continue without them. The second verse projects the desperation of the singer even more profoundly. He would go beyond every possible limit to be reunited with the person he has lost; climbing mountains and swimming oceans, no task is impossible for him to prove his love to the one he loves.
The chorus of the song centers around the singer's plea to his loved one to acknowledge and believe that they are the reason for his existence. They ask for a chance to fix what has been broken and to make the relationship work. The after chorus highlights the singer's need for his loved one to be closer to him so that he can feel their warmth and be comforted.
The song essentially speaks to the universal experience of love and the lengths people are willing to go to keep it alive.
