Beside You
Fado Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Why is your mouth keep mumbling?
Jar of hearts looks empty now
Your eyes aren't look like, like the first time
Skies are gray looks like its bursting
To cry heavy like what I feel nothin
I woke up broken
The only place
I put to myself is to get in
Far away
But how can you meet someone
Hideaway, lost in sight
Feelings for no one
Baby do you know how
It is hard to get through
Every day is so hard to be beside you
Hmm
Hmm
To be beside you
Hmm
Hmm
To be beside you
Why didn't you say no?
Why didn't you say no?
So much love that I can give
How you dare to turn the tables in
Hey, this isn't the first time straight
Looking into my eyes
Been hurting for all
This crime a culprit into my life
Skies are gray looks like its bursting
To cry heavy like what i feel nothin
The night after you left
I woke up broken
The only place I put to myself is to get in
Far away
But how can you meet someone
Hideaway, lost in sight
Feelings for no one
Baby do you know
How it is hard to get through
Every day is so hard to be beside you
Hmm
Hmm
To be beside you
Hmm
Hmm
To be beside you
Why didn't you say no?
Why didn't you say no?
In the verses of the song "Beside You" by Fado, the singer is expressing their frustrations and heartache in a relationship that has taken a turn for the worse. The lyrics begin with a plea for communication, as the singer notices that their partner is not speaking openly or honestly. The line "Jar of hearts looks empty now" suggests that the love between them has dwindled or been drained, and the partner's eyes no longer hold the same love and passion they once did.
The chorus portrays a sense of desolation and sadness. The mention of gray skies bursting to cry heavy reflects the singer's own emotional turmoil, which correlates to the feeling of nothingness that they experience after their partner left. They wake up feeling broken, seeking solace and isolation as they try to find a place where they can heal themselves.
The second verse delves deeper into the pain caused by the partner's actions. The singer expresses their willingness to give so much love, which makes it even more hurtful and confusing when the partner decides to betray their trust. The line "looking into my eyes, been hurting for all, this crime a culprit into my life" suggests that the singer feels deceived and manipulated, as if someone has intentionally caused distress in their life.
Once again, the chorus reinforces the difficulty of being alongside the partner in this situation. The distance between them feels insurmountable, and the singer questions how they can truly connect with someone who seems to be hiding or lost. The line "feelings for no one" implies that the partner's emotions and intentions seem ambiguous or nonexistent.
The song ends with a repetition of the chorus and the repeated question of "Why didn't you say no?" This line implies that the singer is questioning why their partner didn't refuse the actions or choices that led to the current pain and heartbreak. It showcases their desire for honesty and transparency in the relationship.
Overall, "Beside You" explores the feelings of disappointment, betrayal, and longing in a troubled relationship, highlighting the struggle of trying to maintain a connection with someone who is emotionally distant or deceptive. The song captures the emotional turmoil and challenges of being in a relationship where trust has been broken.
