See You Again
Delilah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I understand
Who you lend your love could tear you apart
But I could only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can′t find
You and all the things you do
And all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I′ll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he′s not able to win
And get to see you again
You grasp my fears of broken love
And claim them yours
You′ve opened doors then shared in the path
But I can only recognize your face at night time
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can't find
You and all the things you do and all the things you say
And all the things I feel you think
The one I thought I knew
Is dying to be saved
I pray one day you rescue him
And get to see you again
I′m gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don′t wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
That he′s not able to win
And get to see you again
These situations pass us by
You seem to lead a double life
And I know that it is only meant to hide
Your feelings kept down deep inside
But I can see all of the things you do
Trapped behind the one I thought I knew
And get to see you again
I'm gonna catch you
And get to see you again
Time you put up a fight
And get to see you again
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
Before I let you give in
And get to see you again
You know I love you
And get to see you again
But you I do not like
And get to see you again
Don′t wanna be with a man that′s stuck pretending
That he's not able to win
And get to see you again
The lyrics of the song "See You Again" by Delilah are a heartbreaking plea to a lover who seems to be struggling with their feelings and commitment. The singer, who seems to understand the depth of the lover's emotions, is hidden deep beneath the lover's heart. The lover's fear of being hurt by giving away his love is recognized by the singer, who promises to help the lover come out of his shell and face his fears. The singer only recognizes the lover's face at night time, which brings up a sense of darkness and concealment in the lover's world. The lover seems to be hiding behind pretense and not being his true self.
The chorus of the song is a repetitive plea for the lover to open up and be himself, to fight for his feelings and to let go of his fears. The singer promises to catch him and drag him back to the time when everything was simple and they were together. The repeated lines "And get to see you again" bring out the sense of desperation in the singer's plea to save the lover from his demons and bring him back to reality. The singer's love for the lover shines through the lyrics, but she seems to have lost the connection with the man she thought she knew, and she's dying to save him and be with him again.
Overall, the song "See You Again" by Delilah is a heartfelt plea to a lover who seems to be hiding behind his fears and pretending to be someone else. The lyrics are filled with emotions and the promise of salvation and hope, but there's also a sense of loss and sadness in the singer's voice, who is hoping to see the lover she once knew again.

You hide me deep beneath your heart
I trust you with my deepest secrets
I understand
I know the risks of loving you
Who you lend your love could tear you apart
You have the power to hurt me, but I still love you anyway
But I could only recognize your face at night time
You hide your true feelings from me during the day
Morning shadows cloak the one thing I can′t find
Your true self is hidden from me in the light of day
You and all the things you do
Your actions have consequences
And all the things you say
Your words have power
And all the things I feel you think
I sense that you're holding back
The one I thought I knew
You're not the person I thought you were
Is dying to be saved
You need help, but you won't ask for it
I pray one day you rescue him
I hope you find the courage to change
And get to see you again
I miss the real you
I'm gonna catch you
I won't give up on you
Time you put up a fight
It's time for you to face your problems
I'll drag you back to everything that we once knew
I want to help you remember who you used to be
Before I let you give in
I won't let you give up on yourself
You know I love you
Despite everything, I still care about you
But you I do not like
I don't like how you're acting right now
Don't wanna be with a man that's stuck pretending
I want to be with the real you, not someone who's pretending to be someone else
That he′s not able to win
I believe in you and your ability to change
These situations pass us by
We've been through tough times before
You seem to lead a double life
You hide your true self from the world
And I know that it is only meant to hide
You're afraid to be vulnerable
Your feelings kept down deep inside
You're not sharing your emotions with anyone
But I can see all of the things you do
I'm paying attention to your actions
Trapped behind the one I thought I knew
I'm trying to get to know the real you
Don′t wanna be with a man that′s stuck pretending
I want to be with someone who's authentic
That he's not able to win
I have faith in you and your ability to change
