Enough
Halfway Deserted Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cause they will crush you like he did
Don't even think about the worst
Just let them sail on the wind
And hope they somehow find their way
To somewhere better than this place
And if they don't they'll slowly float and dissappear
Without a trace
I promise i won't let this go
Because without you i'd be lost
So help me through these endless days
And i will try to be enough for you, enough for you, enough for you, enough for you.
I'm gunna try to keep this in but i can't gaurentee i'll win
I just don't know how to proseed because i've never felt this need with someone like i have with you
And i just wanna let you know that its impossible to think that i could ever let you go
And if the world begins to change
I hope that you will stay the same because i know that i can say i never loved someone this way
So when you realize its true
And you begin to doubt yourself
Darling just listen to this song
And read these words i've written out
Enough for you, enough for you, enough for you, enough for you, enough for you.
The lyrics to "Enough" by Halfway Deserted touch on themes of love, loss, and the uncertainty of life. The opening lines caution against chasing after things that can ultimately harm us, as represented by the stars that will crush like the person that caused pain in the past. The singer advises against dwelling on worst-case scenarios, but instead to let them pass like the wind. There's a sense of hope that things will get better, but also an acknowledgement that they may not.
The following lines describe the transience of life - like a flower blooming and dying away, the singer wants to capture the moment and not let it fade to gray. The promise to hold onto the moment is a recurring theme throughout the song. The singer is afraid of losing the person they love and wants to be enough for them, to get them through the "endless days." They don't know how to handle these feelings because they've never experienced anything like it before.
Towards the end of the song, the singer hopes that the person they love will stay the same even as the world changes. They've never loved anyone the same way and want them to know it's "enough," a promise that they will always be there for them. The lyrics, combined with the music, create a sense of longing and urgency.
