Believe In Me
Hans Zimmer & Adam Peters Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sit there with a blank expression
Say you can't go on anymore
It's not like me to come out and help you
Mabye I've been down this road before

Been living in the shadows
Now you come out slow
Now you're in the saddle
Got to ride a long
Now you're dream was shattered
These days are through
Maybe something mattered
It's not just for you

Some are gonna go for broke
Some are gonna lay down
I've been too long standing still
All I know is whenever you need me
You reach out and set me in motion

Looking out on that long valley
Telling me I've come so far
You're the reason I finally got there
You're the reason it's been so hard

Been living in the shadows
Now you hear the call
Now you're in the saddle
You got to ride or fall
Now you push a little harder
Like I showed you to
There's a day you'll be calling
And I'll look you to you

Some are gonna go for broke
Some will lay down
I've been too long
Standing still




All I know is whenever you need me ( 2nd rep-I'll pick you up whenever you stumble)
You just reach out and set me in motion

Overall Meaning

The singer understands the feeling of being stuck in the shadows and not being able to move forward. The lyric, "Been living in the shadows, now you come out slow, now you're in the saddle, got to ride along" implies that the person seeking help is finally taking charge of his/her life and is ready to move forward. The singer promises to be there for the person whenever they need help and urges him/her to reach out whenever they feel stuck again.


The chorus of the song, "Some are gonna go for broke, some are gonna lay down, I've been too long standing still, all I know is whenever you need me, you reach out and set me in motion", suggests that in life, some people take chances even if they might fail, while others give up when faced with challenges.

Here I am, this is me
There's nowhere else on Earth I'd rather be
Here I am, it's just me and you
Tonight we make our dreams come true
It's a new world, it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of young hearts
It's a new day, it's a new plan
I've been waiting for you
Here I am
Here I am
Here we are, we've just begun
And after all this time, our time has come
Yeah, here we are, still goin' strong
Right here in the place where we belong
It's a new world, it's a new start
It's alive with the beating of young hearts
It's a new day, it's a new plan

Right next to you
And suddenly the world is all brand new
Here I am
Here I am
Where I'm gonna stay
Now there's nothing standing in our way

This is the only movie I've ever seen that has a main character who is an animal, and who doesn't speak a single word. And they pulled it off spectacularly.

Lenor Leon

Well he does speak...in his mind
