Say You Will
Carmireli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I asked if you believed
I don't wanna know
You knew when we touched
I don't wanna go
So I stand here with eyes closed
Without you here for me to hold
You close I can't breathe I
I need you here to let me know
Can you save me from the shadows
Can you take me from this world I know
Can you wait here just to fight for us
Fight for all we have to trust
Don't stop now don't back down
I don't care if you scream aloud
Just lie to me and say you will
Say you will
I fell completely
The moment I looked in your eyes
I won't let you go no
I lie here with eyes closed
Without you here for me to hold
You close I can't move I
I need you now to let me know
(Chorus)
And you told me we could have it all someday
That you would wait for me
If only you could know the tears I've cried
If only you could see
You said you cared but now I fear
Our love was wasted along the way
But you told me not to be afraid be afraid
So tell me you can hold on
And make me believe
Can you save me from the shadows
Can you take me from this world I know
Can you wait here just to fight for us
Fight for all we have to trust
Don't stop now don't back down
I don't care if you scream aloud
Just lie to me, lie to me
Just lie to me and say you will
And say you will
In "Say You Will," Carmireli sings about the intense emotions and uncertainty that come with falling deeply in love with someone. The song begins with the singer asking the person they love if they believe in them, but the underlying message is that they're really asking if their love is enough for that person to stay. The singer feels vulnerable and exposed, knowing that the other person can see right through them. They fear being left alone and unable to breathe without their love. Despite their fear, the singer desperately wants to believe that the other person will stay and fight for their love.
The chorus of the song is particularly powerful, as the singer pleads with their love to save them from their own darkness and to fight for their relationship. However, the singer acknowledges that they would rather be lied to than be told the truth if it means that the other person will promise to stay. The song ends on a note of uncertainty, with the singer hoping that their love will hold on and make them believe that their relationship is worth fighting for.
Overall, "Say You Will" is a deeply emotional and honest song about the fears and insecurities that can come with loving someone. It's a reminder that love requires trust and vulnerability, and that it's not always easy to hold on when things get tough.
