BACK 2 BACK
Garth and Jeno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been tossed about, lost and broken wandering aimlessly
And God somehow you know that ship is me
'Cause there's a light house, in a harbor shining faithfully,
Pouring its life out across the water, for this sinking soul in the sea
That someone out there still believes in me
On a prayer, in a song, I hear your voice, and it keeps me hanging on
'Til we reach the circle's end, when you come back to me again
There's a moment, that we all come to, in our own time, in our space
For all that we've done, we can undo if our heart's in the right place
On a prayer, in a song, I hear your voice, and it keeps me hanging on
Oh, raining down, against the wind, I'm reaching out,
'Til we reach the circle's end, when you come back to me again
And again I see my yesterdays in front of me, unfolding like a mystery,
Your changing all that is and used to be
On a prayer, in a song, I hear your voice, and it keeps me hanging on
Oh, raining down, against the wind, I'm reaching out,
'Til we reach the circle's end, when you come back to me again
When you come back to me again
The song "Back 2 Back" by Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood tells a story about a lost and broken soul who feels like a ship at the mercy of the sea. The singer sees herself in the ship and describes how she is wandering aimlessly without direction. However, there's a lighthouse in a harbor that shines its light faithfully and helps guide the ship to safety. The singer feels like that lighthouse represents someone who still believes in her and provides her with hope.
As the song progresses, the singer explains that it's through prayer and song that she hears the lighthouse's voice and feels the motivation to keep going. She's against the wind, but she's reaching out and waiting for the moment when they can come together again. The singer believes that we all come to a moment where we can undo what we've done if our hearts are in the right place. She sees her yesterdays unfolding in front of her, but she's also aware that things are changing for the better. The song ends with the singer hoping for the moment when the lighthouse comes back to her again.
