Who Am I
Indiana Evans Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I never saw what was coming at me
I didn't hear what was said
What I held in the palm of my hands
Was it just in my head

It never worked out that way
I thought that you meant to stay, yeah
But who am I before you start to run baby

Who am I to all I see
Who am I to hope that we are one darling
Who am I can you hear me?

Glad to tell yo my love was real
And tell my heart out over you
When I turning back from the truth now
Help me see always through

And all the promises we made
Are there the ones that we break?
But who am I before you start to run baby
Who am I to all I see
Who am I to hope that we are one darling
Who am I can you hear me?

Who am I before you start to run baby
Who am I to all I see
But Who am I to hope that we are one darling
Who am I can you hear me?

Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Indiana Evans's song Who Am I are about questioning one's identity and significance in a relationship. The singer expresses that they never saw the end of the relationship coming and did not hear the warning signs. They are left wondering if what they held in their hands was only imaginary. The singer thought that the relationship was meant to last, but it didn't work out that way. The chorus is a repetition of the question, "Who am I?" The singer is asking this question as the relationship fell apart and wondering what they mean to the other person. They are lost and trying to figure out who they are to the person who left them.

The second verse, Indiana Evans sings that her love was genuine and that she poured her heart out for the other person. She acknowledges that they need to see the truth and be honest with each other. The singer questions if the promises the other person made were the ones that they will keep. The chorus repeats and highlights the insecurity that the singer is feeling, questioning who they are and if the other person can hear them.

I never saw what was coming at me
I was unaware of what was headed my way

I didn't hear what was said
I was deaf to what was being communicated

What I held in the palm of my hands
The thing in my possession

Was it just in my head
Was it only a figment of my imagination

It never worked out that way
Things didn't turn out as planned

I thought that you meant to stay, yeah
I believed that you intended to remain with me

Glad to tell yo my love was real
It's my pleasure to confirm that my affection was genuine

And tell my heart out over you
To express my emotions for you openly

When I turning back from the truth now
As I'm moving away from honesty at the moment

Help me see always through
Assist me in always seeing clearly

And all the promises we made
The commitments we pledged to each other
