LOST SOUL
Deniz Koyu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see you starring back at me
Over the hills into the wild
I hear your voice's calling me
Wherever you go, whatever you say
Heaven is a heartbeat away
So follow the signs and read between the lines
If I tell you I'm a lost soul
Will you still stay or you try to let go?
Let me hold you
I open my arms tonight
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
Higher we climb, harder we fall
But in the end we give it all
Up in the clouds and down below
I promise you won't be alone
Wherever you go, whatever you say
Heaven is a heartbeat away
So follow the signs and read between the lines
And be a part of me
If I tell you I'm a lost soul
Will you still stay or you try to let go?
Let me hold you
I open my arms tonight
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
I'm a lost soul
The lyrics to Deniz Koyu's "Lost Soul" speak to feelings of loneliness and a search for connection. The singer of the song observes their own reflection in a dreamlike state and sees someone they recognize as important, and are drawn to them. The call of this other voice is a siren song to come and join together in unknown territory. The promise of closeness is offered through the idea that heaven is just a heartbeat away, and all they have to do is follow their intuition and read between the lines. The singer asks the listener to join them on this journey, even though they self-identify as a lost soul.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I'm a lost soul" over and over again. The repetition of this phrase makes it clear that it is a central theme of the song, and emphasizes the importance of finding someone to help them feel less alone. The singer asks whether the listener will stay with them, or if they will let go. This highlights the singer's own insecurity and fear of being left alone, even though they have taken the step to reach out to someone else.
Overall, the song is a beautiful expression of what many people feel when they are opening themselves up to the possibility of love and companionship. It is a reminder that even though we may feel like lost souls, there is always hope that we can find someone to help us feel less alone and more alive.
