Formed in 1988, and having released their first album on CBS Associated in 1989 it's a fairly typical story: critically acclaimed album, dropped from American label (in the wake of the new grunge movement), same record is well received in Europe and becomes number one on various highly respected UK periodicals, members win top honors in polls and tours UK and various parts of Europe, and go on to release 2 more records for Music For Nations, and then after a bit of a respite, another two records for the Frontiers label (one of them a partial compilation). The band's sound is characterized by Al's stellar vocals, anthemic songs, scathing musicianship and deep tapestries of keys and guitars. Upon being asked to play at Firefest in October of 2009, Mark and Al jumped at the opportunity and put together a stellar band with Jon Bivona (on guitar), Mike Sorrentino (on drums) and Paul Ranieri on bass. Encouraged by the wonderful turnout and generous response at Firefest, the band signed with Georg Siegl at the prestigious Metal Heaven to do a combination compilation and original record. Mark, having written “Fool's Game” (Michael Bolton's first single) and “I Found Someone” (Cher's comeback tune), was happy to record those songs (also played in the band's set) with Jon Bivona doing the guitar honors. Also two new songs were written (one actually on the evening of the Firefest gig in an explosion of appreciation and enthusiasm) called “Dreams Will Come” and the heavier kick ass “Try To Let Go (FukUUp)”. Al, who plays every instrument on “Dreams Will Come”, got an opportunity to show off his multi talents. “Try To Let Go”, is a long overdue duet between the two, and features a trade off between Mark and Al. The band is planning a summer tour and plans to keep the ball rolling in support of it's signature melodic rock approach. 

Inside You
Drive She Said Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

All out of love and affection, baby
The sun gets in your eyes
And all you see is rain
Change your heart and direction
The shadows in the night
Look different in the day, yeah

Girl, don't cry

If only you could wait forever
There's truth in lies
Deep in my heart, I know I should be there

Inside of you
I can feel this love growin' on and on
Inside of you
There's a fire that's burnin'
Keeps you safe and warm
Inside of you
The rivers are flowin' deep and strong
Inside of you

Close your eyes
Sometimes you can't see love waitin'
Feel it in your hand, yeah
Count the tears
The moments take forever
They can pass you by
And leave you where you stand

He won't come
Even if you wait forever
You waste your time
'Cause deep in your heart, you know I will be there

Inside of you
Can you feel this love growin' on and on
Inside of you
There's a fire that's burnin'
Keeps you safe and warm
Inside of you
The rivers are flowin' deep and strong
Inside of you

Hey!
Oh-oh-oh-oh, whoa

Ooh-oh...

Oh, inside of you
I can feel this love growin' on and on
Inside of you
There's a fire that's burnin'
Keeps you safe and warm
Inside of you
The rivers are flowin' deep and strong
Inside of you

Inside of you
(On and on)
Inside of you
Voices are callin'
(Safe and warm)
Inside of you
My love is growin', yeah
(Deep and strong)

(Inside of you)
Hey!
(Inside of you)
(Inside of you)
Oh...
(On and on)

Hey...
(Safe and warm)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Drive She Said's song "Inside You" are about someone trying to convince their partner to leave their current relationship and be with them instead. The first verse talks about how the person feels like their partner is all out of love and affection and can only see rain. The person, however, believes that they can change their partner's heart and show them a different direction, one where the shadows in the night look different in the day. The chorus talks about how the person can feel love growing inside their partner and how it's a fire that keeps them safe and warm. The bridge talks about how their partner won't come, even if they wait forever, and how they're wasting their time, but the person singing knows that they will be there for their partner.

The song is an example of a power ballad, a popular genre in the 80s and 90s that mixed elements of hard rock and pop. Power ballads often had emotional lyrics, soaring vocals, and powerful instrumentals that built to a climax. "Inside You" is a classic example of this genre, with its emotional lyrics and powerful vocals.

All out of love and affection, baby
Having run out of love and affection, darling

The sun gets in your eyes
You're blinded by the brightness of the sun

And all you see is rain
You only see negativity and sadness

Change your heart and direction
Modify your emotions and path

The shadows in the night
The darkness lurking at nighttime

Look different in the day, yeah
Appear dissimilar during daylight, definitely

Girl, don't cry
Female, please hold back tears

If only you could wait forever
I wish you could be patient for eternity

There's truth in lies
Fabrications are sometimes accurate

Deep in my heart, I know I should be there
I have a strong feeling that I belong by your side

Inside of you
In your inner self

I can feel this love growin' on and on
I sense that love is intensifying continuously

There's a fire that's burnin'
There's a passion that's blazing

Keeps you safe and warm
Protects and comforts you

The rivers are flowin' deep and strong
The water bodies are running powerfully and profoundly

Temporarily shut your eyes

Sometimes you can't see love waitin'
Occasionally you're unable to perceive love lurking

Feel it in your hand, yeah
Sensation in your hand, certainly

Count the tears
Tally the number of tears you've shed

The moments take forever
The minutes seem like eternities

They can pass you by
They might surpass you

And leave you where you stand
And leave you in your current situation

He won't come
He won't arrive

Even if you wait forever
Even if you're patient for all time

You waste your time
You squander your time

'Cause deep in your heart, you know I will be there
Because the knowledge that I'll be present deep inside you

Inside of you
In your inner self

Can you feel this love growin' on and on
Are you able to sense this love increasing continuously

Voices are callin'
Voices are beckoning

My love is growin', yeah
My love is intensifying, definitely
