Medicine
Havelin Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh I hope you know,
That I was barely hanging on,
When I first saw you I was pitful,
And I was losing every night.
I asked if you might,
Stay a while,
You said maybe if your voice could,
Make me smile,
Oh make me smile,
And I told ya give me one chance,
I don't deserve you to give me this one chance,
You're my medicine,
You're my medicine.
Oh I hope you know,
I hope you know,
You pulled me up when I was down,
You showed me love when I knew hoplessness,
Breathing slowly softer sounds.
I asked if you might,
Stay a while,
Oh stay a while,
You said maybe if your voice could,
Make me smile,
Oh make me smile,
And I told ya give me one chance,
I don't deserve you to give me this one chance,
You're my medicine,
You're my medicine.
And maybe I hold you,
Maybe I look you in the eyes,
And maybe I give it all to see you smile,
And maybe I hold you,
And maybe I look in the eyes,
And maybe I tell you that I love you tonight.
You're my medicine,
You're my medicine,
you're my medicine (Oh I hope you know)
You're my medicine (Oh I hope you know)
You're my medicine (Oh I hope you know)
You're my medicine.
The song "Medicine" by Havelin portrays a story of how the love of the singer saved them from a dark and hopeless place. The singer confesses that they were hanging on by a thread before they met their lover who was able to bring them back to life. The singer uses the phrase "you're my medicine" to describe the healing nature of their lover's presence in their life.
The song also touches on the singer's lack of self-worth in the beginning of the relationship. They feel undeserving of their lover's attention and love, asking for "one chance" to prove themselves worthy. However, the love and care that their partner provides helps the singer to feel better about themselves and provide hope for their future.
The singer also talks about physical gestures they would like to do with their loved one such as holding them, looking into their eyes, and telling them they love them.
Overall, "Medicine" is a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to the power of love, hope, and healing in one's life.
