Everybody Here Wants You
Haerts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Coffee smell and lilac skin, your flame in me.
Twenty-nine pearls in your kiss, a singing smile
Coffee smell and lilac skin, your flame in me.
I′m only here for this moment.
I know everybody here wants you.
I know everybody here thinks he needs you.
I'll be waiting right here just to show you
Such a thing of wonder in this crowd,
I′m a stranger in this town, you're free with me.
And our eyes locked in downcast love, I sit here proud,
Even now you're undressed in your dreams with me.
I′m only here for this moment.
I know everybody here wants you.
I know everybody here thinks he needs you.
I′ll be waiting right here just to show you
How our love will blow it all away.
I know the tears we cried have dried on yesterday
The sea of fools has parted for us
There's nothing in our way, my love
Don′t you see, don't you see?
You′re just the torch to put the flame
To all our guilt and shame,
And I'll rise like an ember in your name.
You know I, you know I,
I know everybody here wants you.
I know everybody here thinks he needs you.
I′ll be waiting right here just to show you
Everybody Here Wants You by Haerts is a love song that captures the tender emotions of the singer towards the person he loves. The opening lines, "Twenty-nine pearls in your kiss, a singing smile, coffee smell and lilac skin, your flame in me" ingeniously depict the beauty, fragrance, and passion that the singer associates with the person he loves. As the song progresses, he professes his love and devotion, telling her, "I'm only here for this moment" and pledges to wait for her to show her how their love will conquer all.
The singer cherishes the moments they have shared, feeling like "a stranger in this town" but freed by her presence. He is proud of his feelings, despite the fact that she is only undressed in his dreams. He is confident that their love will overcome all obstacles, including the guilt and shame that may arise from their relationship. He declares that she is the torch that will ignite their passion and extinguish their guilt and shame.
The song's overall message is that love can conquer all obstacles, and that the passion and commitment of two people can overcome any adversity. Haert's delicate and mesmerizing vocals, combined with the song's romantic and tender lyrics, capture the essence of true love.

there are a few activities one shouldnt partake in during his/her life.
that list includes the following:
• punching a grandma
• killing puppies
• covering Jeff Buckley
• reinstating slavery in America
but you've made me rethink that list. well, maybe not the whole thing, but one part...
you've successfully covered Buckley in a way that would most definitely receive a nod from him.
didn't think that could be done, but i was happily proven wrong today.
hell yeah. keep this awesome legend alive! peace & love.

I love Jeff Buckley and I love HAERTS and I just can't at people saying "it can't compare to the original" or "they can't beat Jeff Buckley". They never said "hey guys, listen to us trying to be better than Jeff Buckley", for fucks sake, they like the artist and are just playing his song with a touch of their own style.

+Martin D'Estefani Martinelli i so fucking agree with you! :)
Peach tune
. Well, this band has so much talent, and everybody here agrees that. I think they are so special, they still here trought it all, they stayed after all, i mean, just see they views, people dont know about them, they dont have the support they need, they dont have the recognition they deserve. They deserve so much omg, they are amazing, they feel the music and thats what is this about, I really love you so much guys, Big hugs and supports from México. :)
