Space Between
Dove Cameron Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I didn't know what you were going through
I thought that you were fine
Why did you have to hide?
I didn't wanna let you down
But the truth is out
It's tearing me apart, not listening to my heart

I really had to go
And I would never stop you
Even though it changed
Nothing has to change

And you can find me in the space between
Where two worlds come to meet
I'll never be out of reach
'Cause you're a part of me so you can find me in the space between
You'll never be alone
No matter where you go
We can meet in the space between

And nothing can stay the same
It's growing pains
Be proud of all the scars
They make you who you are (oh, whoa)

I know you have to stay
But I'll never really leave you
Nothing has to change
Even though we've changed

And you can find me in the space between
Where two worlds come to meet
I'll never be out of reach
'Cause you're a part of me so you can find me in the space between
You'll never be alone
No matter where you go
We can meet in the space between

There are no words left to say
I know you gotta find your place
But this is not the end (no)
You're part of who I am
Even if we're worlds apart
You're still in my heart
It will always be you and me, yeah

You can find me in the space between
Where two worlds come to meet
I'll never be out of reach (I'll never be out of reach, no)
'Cause you're a part of me so you can find me in the space between
You'll never be alone
No matter where you go
We can meet in the space between

Yeah, no matter where you go




No matter where you go
We can meet in the space between

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dove Cameron's song "Space Between" talk about a relationship that is experiencing a difficult time due to one person's struggle with their own issues. The singer didn't know that her partner was going through something difficult, she thought that everything was fine. She didn't want to disappoint the other person, but now that the truth is out, it's causing her pain and internal conflict. Despite this, she knows it's time for her to leave and move on, but she assures her partner that nothing about their relationship needs to change. She tells them that she'll always be there for them, "in the space between" where their two worlds come to meet. The singer implies that their relationship will never truly end, that they will always have a connection, and that they will be able to find each other no matter how separate their lives become.


The song is all about leaving each other, or moving on, but still being connected in some way. The space between represents a distance, but it can also represent the love and bond between two people. The lyrics are ambiguous enough that they can be applicable to any kind of relationship, not just romantic ones. It could be between siblings, friends, or even between a parent and child. Everyone has someone in their lives that they feel connected to, regardless of how far away they are from each other.


The lyrics are very insightful and relatable. We all have moments in our lives when we feel like we need to move on but don't want to leave anyone behind. "Space Between" is a song that encapsulates this feeling and offers reassurance that while things may change, the connection between two people doesn't have to.
