Be-In ®
Company Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your heartstrings all came undone
When she left you out in the sun

Well, what did you think it would feel like to be in love?

And your heartaches have served you well
And if you're anxious, I just can't tell
Well, how many times did you want to be in love?





Overall Meaning

The song "Be-In" by Company talks about the experience of falling in love, getting hurt, and wanting to be in love again. The lyrics suggest that the persona in the song is talking to someone who has been hurt before and has developed walls around their heart to avoid getting hurt again. The first lines of the song, "Your heartstrings all came undone/When she left you out in the sun" describe how the person feels after being left heartbroken by someone they loved. The use of the metaphor "left you out in the sun" is significant as it suggests the person was burned or left exposed and vulnerable.


The second verse, "And your heartaches have served you well/And if you're anxious, I just can't tell/Well, how many times did you want to be in love?" portrays that the person has become cautious and hesitant about love. They might have learned from their heartaches and use their newfound wisdom to protect themselves. However, the persona acknowledges that this has come at the cost of them feeling anxious and scared of falling in love again. The last line, "Well, how many times did you want to be in love?" is significant because it highlights the human desire for love despite the potential pain that comes with it.


Overall, the song Be-In is a beautiful portrayal of the complex emotions that come with falling in love and getting hurt. The lyrics are thoughtful, reflective, and insightful. The song encourages listeners to embrace love despite the possibility of heartache because the feeling of being in love is worth it.



Line by Line Meaning

Your heartstrings all came undone
Your emotions were shattered and you felt broken


When she left you out in the sun
When she abandoned you and left you exposed and vulnerable


Well, what did you think it would feel like to be in love?
You were naive and didn't fully comprehend the complexities of love


And your heartaches have served you well
Your struggles and pain have helped you grow and learn


And if you're anxious, I just can't tell
Your anxiety is well-concealed and not noticeable to others


Well, how many times did you want to be in love?
You yearn for love, but may have been hurt so much before that you question if it's worth it
