Lost Without You
Darren Hayes (Ft. Delta Goodrem) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know I can be a little stubborn sometimes
A little righteous and too proud
I just want to find a way to compromise
Cause I believe that we can work things out

I thought I had all the answers never giving in
But baby since you've gone I admit that I was wrong
All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you I need you by my side you
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye
Don't know what I'd do? I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

How my ever gonna get rid of these blues
Baby I'm so lonely all the time
Everywhere I go I get so confused
You're the only thing that's on my mind

Oh my beds so cold at night and I miss you more each day
Only you can make it right no I'm not too proud to say

All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you I need you by my side you
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what
I'd do? I'm lost without you
I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

If I could only hold you now and make the pain just go away
Can't stop the tears from running down my face
Oh

All I know is I'm lost without you I'm not gonna lie
How my going to be strong without you I need you by my side you
If we ever say we'll never be together and we ended with goodbye don't know what
I'd do? I'm lost without you




I keep trying to find my way but all I know is I'm lost without you
I keep trying to face the day I'm lost without you

Overall Meaning

The song "Lost Without You" by Darren Hayes (ft. Delta Goodrem) talks about the pain and loneliness of a person who has lost their loved one. The lyrics express the feeling of being lost and helpless without the support and company of the person they love. The song begins with the realization that the person can sometimes be stubborn and proud, but they still believe that they can work things out with their loved one if they could just find a way to compromise. However, since the person has gone, they have come to the realization that they were wrong and need them back in their life.


The chorus of the song emphasizes the feeling of being completely lost without the person they love, and they are not sure how they can be strong or even face the day without them. The second verse further expresses their loneliness and confusion, and how they cannot stop thinking about the person, who is always on their mind. They miss them every day, and only they can make things right again. The song ends with a desperate plea to hold the person once again and make the pain go away.


Overall, "Lost Without You" is a heart-wrenching ballad that beautifully captures the feeling of loss and the need for someone special in life.

I remember Delta Goodrem was battling cancer, so was unable to accept her award at the ARIA’s, so Darren got up and sang her song for her. So beautiful and will always be iconic.

@elmarbeau

I'm not australian but i think Australia can feel so proud of Darren and Savage Garden, such talents!

@ajl2232

You should be. He is amazing. Almost otherworldly.

@Powerhouse454RJ

I hope they are, Darren Hayes, Daniel Jones and 'Savage Garden' were the Best Group of the 90s and their music lives on. He's singing again and I think he sounds so Awesome...You Rock, Darren.
