Just Give Me a Reason
Daniela Andrade & New Height Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Right from the start
You were a thief
You stole my heart
And I your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me
That weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them
You've been talking in your sleep oh oh
Things you never say to me oh oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again

I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine (Oh we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind (Yeah but this is happening)

You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
You used to lie so close to me oh oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets
Between our love, our love
Oh our love, our love

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again

Oh tear ducts and rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust
But our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again

Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
And we can learn to love again




And we can learn to love again
And we can learn to love again

From the very beginning of our relationship


You were a thief
You stole my heart and my affection

I was happy to give my love and affection to you


I let you see the parts of me
I allowed you to see my flaws and vulnerabilities


That weren't all that pretty
Parts of me that weren't attractive or admirable


And with every touch you fixed them
With every interaction, you were able to help me overcome my flaws


You've been talking in your sleep oh oh
You've been revealing your true feelings to me unconsciously


Things you never say to me oh oh
Things you've been withholding from me during conscious conversations


Tell me that you've had enough
You're expressing dissatisfaction with our love


Of our love, our love
Of the love we share together


Just give me a reason
Give me an explanation or justification for ending our love


Just a little bit's enough
Even the smallest explanation would be sufficient


Just a second we're not broken just bent
Our love may be strained, but it's not completely broken

I apologize for not comprehending your negative emotions


Where all of this is coming from
I'm confused about the source of your negative feelings towards our love


I thought that we were fine
I believed our love was strong and stable


Your head is running wild again
Your emotions are out of control and overwhelming you


My dear we still have everythin'
We still have each other and our love


And it's all in your mind
Your negative emotions are the result of your own thoughts and perceptions


You've been havin' real bad dreams oh oh
Your subconscious thoughts are negatively affecting your emotions


You used to lie so close to me oh oh
We used to be physically and emotionally close


There's nothing more than empty sheets
Our love has become empty and unfulfilling


Between our love, our love
This emptiness is what's driving us apart


Oh our love, our love
Our once-strong love has become problematic


Oh tear ducts and rust
Our tears and pain have caused our love to deteriorate


I'll fix it for us
I'll work to repair and strengthen our love


We're collecting dust
Our love has become neglected and forgotten


But our love's enough
Our love is still strong enough to overcome our difficulties


You're holding it in
You're keeping your negative emotions bottled up


You're pouring a drink
You're trying to numb your emotions with alcohol


No nothing is as bad as it seems
Our love is not as bad as you perceive it to be


We'll come clean
We'll be honest and open about our feelings towards each other

What I love the most about her, is that she doesn't seem to unnecessarily show off her voice, like most singers these days. She loses herself in the music and looks like she's truly happy when she sings, which makes me enjoy it even more. Keep it up! :)

Yiheng Yan

I really love this version, can’t stop coming back from time to time.

BC ElginTex

Something about the original version of this song always bothered me.  I never could put my finger on what was wrong but whatever it was, this duet made it right.  I love this version.

Jay Marinho

Got the same feeling

HDVideos

the kick and the clap sounds were too much aggressive for the ears 

Flor Franciscovich

Same!

Silvia Bavaresco

Like at the original, I only like the feminine voice. Espeacially at original Pink version her voice has so much power and personality that the boy voice annoy me.
