The Wonderful In You
Caro Emerald Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Then I don't know why they call you
A dane when you look in the mirror
Is it take? He didn't make a difference
You're away, to him you are untamed
Your reflection is a ruse
The cover I can't do
Your heart refuses to tell you the truth
Why? It's why you do it
I can't believe that someone like you
Surrenders every element of you
And you abuse it
So someone you love, you really love
May never seen the wonderful in you

Games, you never seem too tired
Oh his games
The make-up starts to drift, this is insane
Another masquerade, where is the shame?
Please forget his name
Hands are tickin' on the clock
Too tired for a walk
Your heart is desperately trying to find you

Why, it's why you do it
I can't believe that someone like you
Surrenders every element of you
And you abuse it
So someone you love, you really love
May never seen the wonderful in you

I'm chasing rainbows
It's just thunder that's leaving dark behind

Why, it's why you do it
I can't believe that someone like you
Surrenders every element of you
And you abuse it




So someone you love, you really love
May never seen the wonderful in you

Overall Meaning

The song "The Wonderful In You" by Caro Emerald is a poignant commentary on how people can lose themselves in relationships, and how the person they become may be unrecognizable to themselves and those who truly love them. The lyrics talk about a woman who is so entranced by her partner that she is willing to hide her true self and surrender everything she has, only to be abused and mistreated in return. The singer implores her to break free and stop playing games with herself, and hopes that someone will see the wonderful person she truly is before it's too late.


The line "And you abuse it, so someone you love, you really love, may never see the wonderful in you" is particularly poignant, as it speaks to the idea that people can be so caught up in their own pain and trauma that they don't see the beauty in those around them. The song is a reminder to cherish what's truly important in life, and to never lose sight of who we really are.
