There Is Something
DeYarmond Edison Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna be, I wanna be with you
In the middle of the rain when the thunders
come and strain
I will never ever steal your coat
I'll be by your side to challenge the cold
I'd like to be, I'd like to be with you
In the middle of the war, I'll be wearing what
you wore
I will never ever let you stand in the front and
get shoot
If I were with you, I'll hug you through a rainy
day
If I were with you, we'll watch oldies movies
until it's late
If I were with you, I'll never ever make you sad
Don't need to be your lover




I just wanna be with you
I don't need more, anyting from you.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DeYarmond Edison's song "There Is Something" express a deep desire to be with someone, to have their company and support even in the midst of difficult times. The opening lines express this desire to be in the middle of the rain when thunder strikes, highlighting the importance of being together in both good and bad moments. The singer promises to stand by the person's side, to not cause any harm or take anything away from them, and to challenge the cold when necessary.


The lyrics then take a turn to a more extreme situation - in the middle of a war. The singer says they would wear what the person wore, and they would never let them be in harm's way. The desire to protect and care for the person is clear throughout the song, with the promise to hug them through a rainy day, watch old movies with them, and never make them sad.

Probably one of my favourite songs Justin Vernon has ever written, and that is really saying something

Alek Mariano

Where I begin, you end
And there ain't no clear cut line
It's just some sort of blend
Like a California highway, and a high breeze off the ocean
My eyes are born on a drive
And it's the stillness in motion that gets me

I leave, you enter
And I put my face down, and I pretend to (paint ya?)
And I wish I could say something
But I turn to go
I'm cryin cause of a stranger
And I wonder if you know you get me... get me...

And I believe in all you know
I will try to put it down in words
And I wonder if it's controlled
There is something
There is something

I awake, you go to sleep
We're inside a globe of chance, and the darkness runs deep
It's a friday afternoon
I embrace the chance to see you
Peering and wanting to go
Is like sun in melted snow... it gets me

I'm falling down
To a shuddering, deafening sound
It headed towards me, it's all around
And I'm gonna love this
As much as I got

Good Foxy

Opening lyrics: Where I begin, you end. And there ain't no clear cut line; it's just some sort of blend. Like a California highway, in a high breeze off the ocean. My eyes are born on a drive. And it's the stillness in motion that gets me. I leave. You enter. And I put my face down. I pretend to (paint ya?) And I wish I could say something. But I don't go. I'm crying cause of a stranger. And I wonder if you know, you get me. Get me.
