Grow
Frances Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't put your eyes down
You're not to blame
I know there are stories
You can't explain
But if I should find you black and blue
And aching from crying, I'll wait with you

Grow, grow
Oh, so you know it all
Then it's gone
Grow, grow
You know I'm here holding on
Tying up your loose ends
And you're drifting esteem
Grow, grow
If you never try, you'll never know

I've left you a white page by the door
There's no need to ask me what it's for
I wait by the front step for your return
And hear every story of what you've learned

Oh, so you know it all
Then it's gone
Grow, grow
You know I'm here holding on
Tying up your loose ends
And you're drifting esteem
Grow, grow
If you never try, you'll never know
Grow, grow
Grow, grow

Throw your arms out and grow your heart out
Throw your arms out and grow your heart out
Throw your arms out and grow your heart out
Grow, grow
Grow, grow
And don't put your eyes down
You're not to blame




I know there are stories
You can't explain

Overall Meaning

In Frances's song, "Grow", she encourages her loved one to rise above the pain and hurt caused by their past experiences. She reassures him/her that whatever may have happened is not his/her fault, and that there are some stories that are merely inexplicable. She acknowledges the bruises and tears by stating that she is willing to stay by his/her side, offering solace and comfort every step of the way. In essence, the singer empowers her loved one to move forward in life confidently, giving him/her a chance to flourish and discover the light that they have been searching for.


Frances urges her loved one to grow both in character and emotional stability. She sings that even though he/she thinks he/she knows everything when it comes to struggles and difficult circumstances, "it's gone". This could mean that life is too short to always feel like you have everything under control. Life is transient, and so are some of the things that we think matter the most. With this in mind, she encourages him/her to hold on to her tightly while she helps him/her deal with the things that keep weighing him/her down. She is willing to help him/her overcome any struggles that he/she might be going through.


Lastly, the singer urges her loved one to embrace life - to try new things and find out what works best for him/her. She sings, "if you never try, you'll never know" - until we step out of our comfort zones and embrace new experiences, we will never truly discover our full potentials.

Heard this song...a few hours before my nephew died in 2020. The day started out so perfectly, a Friday morning. Full of smiles, different towns. He was only 2 months old. Only to recieve a call that he died out of Suffocation 😕💔. I’ve been avoiding this song ever since. But today...I decided to be brave💔❤️. Fly high baby AJ🕊❤️, I love you with my heart.

As a stage IV cancer patient, this made me cry.  THE most beautiful song I've heard in a long, long while.  Thank you so very much for it.
