Stronger
Claptone feat. Ben Duffy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you stand so close
You save me
Two hearts beat tight
Where people see nothing
Oh I just feel something that saves me
I see white lights reflecting in the night
But lately
When I hear your voice
People say it′s nothing,
But all I hear is something that saves me
Oh, why do we keep fighting
Our love, our love?
Oh, 'cause when we are together
We′re Stronger, stronger
I know your love is just around the bend
When you stand so close
You save me
Two hearts beat tight
Where people see nothing oh
I just feel something that saves me
Oh, why do we keep fighting
Our love, our love?
Oh, 'cause when we are together
Stronger, stronger
Oh, why do we keep fighting
Our love, our love?
Oh, 'cause when we are together
We′re Stronger, stronger
I′ve been so caught in the middle
I feel like I'm blinded
I′m wasting my time
Down on my luck
I've been walking so much
Will you help me?
Just show me a sign
I just want to know
Oh, why do we keep fighting
Our love, our love?
Oh, ′cause when we are together
We're Stronger, stronger
Oh, why do we keep fighting
Our love, our love?
Oh, ′cause when we are together
We're Stronger, stronger
Oh Our love, our love?
Oh We're stronger, stronger
The lyrics of "Stronger" seem to be about the power of love in a relationship. The singer recognizes that their love is just around the corner, and when they are close to their partner, they feel saved. They feel something that others cannot see or understand, but whatever it is, it saves them. The singer seems to be going through a difficult time ("caught in the middle," "wasting my time") but believes that their love, once reunited, can make them stronger. The chorus repeats the phrase "why do we keep fighting our love" as though the couple has gone through hard times before, but when they are together, they are stronger.
The use of metaphor is prominent, with the phrase "two hearts beat tight," painting a picture of two people who are intertwined and depend on each other. The use of "white lights reflecting in the night" creates a sense of hope and optimism. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of longing and a feeling that the power of love can heal wounds and overcome obstacles.
