Close To You
DJ Tiesto Feat. Jan Johnston Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wouldn't call it time well spent
Repeating to myself again
Find comfort in an endless stream of moments
I don't even care, about the way I feel today
Because it changes anyway
Something will make me cry or smile
Another picture on my pile
Now I'm standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough
'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough

Do you find solace in the sun
Do you consider life as one
Do you believe there is a limit
To how fast a man can run

Someone said you're born alive
Well I don't feel that alive
No I don't feel that alive
I don't feel that alive

Now I' standing close to you
It's just something that I do
When I need love to be enough
I wish love could be enough
'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Than the thought that I could be enough
Enough





I could be enough, whoa

Overall Meaning

The song "Close To You" by DJ Tiësto feat. Jan Johnston is about finding comfort in moments and the desire for love to be enough. The lyrics suggest a feeling of emptiness and dissatisfaction with life, where time is not well spent and moments are repeated to find comfort. The singer admits that they do not care about their current emotions because they are bound to change anyway, and they seek solace in pictures and memories.


In the chorus, the singer confesses to standing close to someone, possibly a lover or friend, as they need love to be enough. They wish that love could be enough, that there is nothing more appealing than knowing that they could be enough for someone. However, the last verse suggests that the singer has doubts about life, asking if the person they are talking to finds solace in the sun, if they believe in limits to what a man can do because they do not feel alive. The song ends with the singer acknowledging the possibility of being enough for someone, but they only wish that it would be enough.


Overall, the song portrays a sense of restlessness and longing for something more while acknowledging the fleeting nature of life and the constant change of emotions.


Line by Line Meaning

I wouldn't call it time well spent
I don't think the time I spent was worthwhile


Repeating to myself again
Saying the same thing to myself repeatedly


Find comfort in an endless stream of moments
Feeling relaxed in a never-ending series of instances


I don't even care, about the way I feel today
I don't have any concern for how I feel currently


Because it changes anyway
As it alters so often, it doesn't matter


Something will make me cry or smile
Something will make me either sad or happy


Another picture on my pile
Another image added to my collection


Do you find solace in the sun
Do you get comfort from the warmth of the sun


Do you consider life as one
Do you think of life as a single entity


Do you believe there is a limit
Do you subscribe to the theory that there is a restriction


To how fast a man can run
As to the speed of a human's sprint


Someone said you're born alive
Somebody claimed that you're delivered into the world as lively


Well I don't feel that alive
I don't think I'm that passionate


No I don't feel that alive
No, I still don't feel that vibrant


Now I'm standing close to you
At the present time, I'm standing nearby you


It's just something that I do
It's merely a habit I have


When I need love to be enough
When I require love to suffice


I wish love could be enough
I desire love to be satisfactory


'Cause there is nothing more appealing
Because there's no better notion


Than the thought that I could be enough
Than the concept of me being adequate


Enough
Sufficient


I could be enough, whoa
I suppose I could be adequate

Almost 6 years since I have heard it for a first time. Once in a week or once in a month I just must listen it :) Great memories, life that went by... Such a masterpiece for me.

You're lucky.. It's been only 6 years when you'd heard it for the first time... As for me: it's almost 14 years
