Digital Farm Animals Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey Rvssian

Do you remember when I met you in the summer?
Sipping wine, we talked for hours through the night
And you asked me if I'd like to know your number
For me to call and say that I got home alright

But oh, it felt so deep
I had a lot on my mind
I wasn't ready to find you
'Cause I was so naive
I do this every time
I wish that I could rewind it

Are we a drop in the ocean? Oh
Oh, I know that I let you down
All along I was searching for something new
Oh-oh, and I should've been there right next to you
Uh-uh-uh, I should've been there right next to you

I should've been there right next to you

Do you remember all the cold nights in the winter?
We drove for hours so that we could be alone
And I've been making up excuses just to call ya
You told me you'd be waiting, standing by the phone (Yeah-yeah)

But oh, we fell so deep
I had a lot on my mind
I wasn't ready to find you
'Cause I was so naive
I do this every time
I wish that I could rewind it

Are we a drop in the ocean? Oh (Are we?)
Oh, I know that I let you down (Let you down, let you down, yeah)
All along I was searching for something new
Oh-oh, and I should've been there right next to you
Uh-uh-uh, I should've been there right next to you

I should've been there right next to you
I should've been there right next to you

Cuando te acuerdes esa noche junto al mar
Hacieno cosa' que no pudiste olvidar
Yo sé que contigo me portaba muy mal
Pero nunca imagine que llegaría el final
Sabe' que quiero tenerte a mi lado
Sabe' que también a mí estás acostumbrado




Olvida los errores del pasado
I should've been right next to you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Digital Farm Animals' "Next To You" depict a tale of a missed opportunity for love. The first verse reminisces on a summer encounter with the person of interest, in which they bonded over wine and a deep conversation. However, due to the singer's own naivety and preoccupation with their troubles, they failed to pursue a potential relationship. The second verse continues to imply that the two remained friendly over the years, with moments of passion and promises to stay in touch hanging in the air. Eventually, the singer is left with feelings of regret and the realization that they should have prioritized being with this person instead of constantly searching for something new.


The theme of regret is present throughout the song, with the repeated phrase "I should've been there right next to you" serving as a reminder of what could have been. The lyrics also express the universal feeling of wondering if one is just a small part of a larger whole, represented by the line "Are we a drop in the ocean?" The Spanish lyrics in the bridge further emphasize the desire to make amends and be with the person, admitting to past mistakes but hoping for a second chance.


Overall, "Next To You" is a relatable tale of missed opportunities and the human tendency to overlook what is right in front of us. The lyrics remind us to seize the moment and prioritize relationships in our lives before they slip away.
