I'm yours
Dominic M. Barnes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the words were strong
Heard the screen door slam,
And you were gone
You can't win a fight
You don't understand
And I wake up alone
Reachin' for your hand
Like a cold wind in December
When we don't see eye to eye
I want you to remember
I'm still on your side
When you need me girl
Still on your side
As sure as a river
Runs to the sea
There'll have to be times,
We both disagree
Sometimes I feel like shoutin'
It's like a freight train in my heart
Make you see there'll be no doubtin'
I'm still on your side
When you need me girl
Still on your side
And I look up
To see you standin' there
But you just look right thru me
Somebody tell me I'm dreamin'
Pretend you don't care
As you turn round and walk out that door
Sometimes I feel like shoutin'
It's like a freight train in my heart
Make you see there'll be no doubtin'
I'm still on your side
Like a cold wind in December
When we don't see eye to eye
I want you to remember
I'm still on your side
Na-na-na-na-na-na
I'm still on your side
The lyrics to Dominic M. Barnes's song "I'm Yours" talk about the ups and downs of a relationship. The opening lines speak of a heated argument that drives the partner away. The singer realizes that fighting doesn't solve anything, and now he longs for his partner's presence. The next lines stress the importance of being supportive even if you don't agree with your partner. He compares his unwavering support to the river that always flows to the sea, no matter what obstacles it faces. In the following lines, he admits that sometimes he feels like screaming and letting loose of his emotions. But, he wants his partner to understand that he's still with her, no matter what.
However, in the final lines, the singer admits that he fears that his partner might not reciprocate his feelings. He looks up and sees her standing there, but she doesn't look back. The singer asks for someone to tell him it's just a dream and then admits to still being on her side despite everything.

Line by Line Meaning
Emotions ran high,
Feelings were intense,
And the words were strong
And the language was forceful
Heard the screen door slam,
I heard the door make a loud noise,
And you were gone
And you left
You can't win a fight
You cannot succeed in an argument
You don't understand
You lack comprehension
And I wake up alone
And I arise by myself
Reachin' for your hand
Trying to hold your hand
Like a cold wind in December
Similar to a chilly breeze in December
When we don't see eye to eye
When we do not agree
I want you to remember
I wish for you to recollect
I'm still on your side
I am still supportive of you
When you need me girl
When you require my assistance, my dear
Still on your side
I still support you
As sure as a river
As certain as a stream
Runs to the sea
Flows towards the ocean
There'll have to be times,
There will be occasions
We both disagree
When we both have differing opinions
Sometimes I feel like shoutin'
Occasionally, I want to yell
It's like a freight train in my heart
My emotions are like an unstoppable train
Make you see there'll be no doubtin'
Make you realize there should not be any uncertainty
I'm still on your side
I am still rooting for you
When you need me girl
When you require my assistance, my dear
Still on your side
I still support you
And I look up
And I gaze upwards
To see you standin' there
To observe you standing there
But you just look right thru me
But you simply look past me
Somebody tell me I'm dreamin'
Someone inform me that I am dreaming
Pretend you don't care
Pretend that you do not care
As you turn round and walk out that door
As you turn around and walk away
Sometimes I feel like shoutin'
Occasionally, I want to yell
It's like a freight train in my heart
My emotions are like an unstoppable train
Make you see there'll be no doubtin'
Make you realize there should not be any uncertainty
I'm still on your side
I am still rooting for you
Like a cold wind in December
Similar to a chilly breeze in December
When we don't see eye to eye
When we do not agree
I want you to remember
I wish for you to recollect
I'm still on your side
I still support you
Na-na-na-na-na-na
Nonsensical sound
I'm still on your side
I am still rooting for you
