Song for You
J.d. Smooth Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I hear music when I look at you,
A beautiful theme of every
Dream I ever knew.
Down deep in my heart I hear it play.
I feel it start, then melt away.

I hear music when I touch your hand,
A beautiful melody
From some enchanted land.
Down deep in my heart, I hear it say,
Is this the day?

I alone have heard this lovely strain,
I alone have heard this glad refrain,
Must it be forever inside of me,
Why can't I let it go,
Why can't I let you know,
Why can't I let you know the song
My heart would sing?

That beautiful rhapsody
Of love and youth and spring,
The music is sweet,




The words are true
The song is you.

Overall Meaning

In J.d. Smooth's "Song For You," the lyrics describe the overwhelming feeling of love and emotion that the singer experiences when looking at the person they love. The first two lines, "I hear music when I look at you, A beautiful theme of every dream I ever knew," emphasize the transformative nature of love and how it can change one's perception of the world. The "music" that the singer hears represents the emotions and feelings that are stirred up inside them when they think about their significant other. The following lines, "Down deep in my heart I hear it play. I feel it start, then melt away," convey the idea that this love is visceral and deep, but also fleeting and temporary.


The second stanza continues with the theme of music as a metaphor for the singer's feelings. This time, touching the person they love triggers a "beautiful melody from some enchanted land," which refers to the magical and otherworldly vibe that love can bring. The line, "Is this the day?" adds a sense of urgency and excitement, as if the singer cannot wait for the moment when they can fully express their love.


Finally, the singer reflects on the fact that this love is something that only they can hear and feel. They are the only ones who have experienced this "lovely strain" and "glad refrain," which makes them feel both special and isolated. The lines, "Must it be forever inside of me, Why can't I let it go, Why can't I let you know, Why can't I let you know the song my heart would sing?" express the desire to share their feelings with the person they love, but also the fear of being rejected or misunderstood.


Overall, "Song For You" is a romantic and introspective song that captures the intense emotions of falling in love and the struggle to express those feelings to another person.

Oh, woah
Oh, woah
Oh, woah

You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever, and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart

Are we an item? Girl, quit playing!
We're just friends? What are you saying?
Said there's another and looked right in my eyes
My first love broke my heart for the first time

And I was like
Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
Thought you'd always be mine, mine

Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine

For you, I would have done whatever
And I just can't believe, we ain't together
And I wanna play it cool, but I'm losin' you
I'll buy you anything, I'll buy you any ring
And I'm in pieces, baby fix me
And just shake me til' you wake me from this bad dream

I'm going down, down, down
And I just can't believe
My first love won't be around

And I'm like
Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine

Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine

Luda!
When I was thirteen
I had my first love
There was nobody that compared to my baby
And nobody came to between us or could ever come above
She had me going crazy

Oh, I starstruck
She woke me up daily
Don't need no Starbucks
She make my heart pound
I skip a beat when
I see her in the street and
At school on the playground
But I really wanna
See her on the weekend
She knows she got me dazing
Cuz she was so amazing
And now my heart is breaking
But I just keep on saying


Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine

Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine

And I was like
Baby, baby, baby, ooh
Like baby, baby, baby, no
Like baby, baby, baby, ooh
I thought you'd always be mine, mine

I'm gone, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now I'm all gone, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now I'm all gone, yeah, yeah, yeah
Now I'm all gone, gone, gone, gone, I'm gone
