Overall Meaning

Ekolu's song "Everywhere" is a love ballad that speaks of the singer's desire to be close to their love, no matter where they are. The song starts with the singer calling out to their love, emphasizing their own vulnerability at the same time. They want to be with their partner everywhere, hence, the phrase "Be with you everywhere" is repeated throughout the song. The tension is palpable as the singer is struggling to articulate how they feel, which is evident in lyrics like "You know that I'm falling and I don't know what to say, I'll speak a little louder, I'll even shout."
Further, we see the desperation of the singer in the second verse when they say, "You better make It soon before you break my heart." The singer's friends think that they are acting peculiar, emphasizing that the singer's love is perhaps overly strong, almost obsessive. The repetition of the first verse in the end reinstates the desperation of the singer to be with the one they love.
