Umbrella
JLS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby 'cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
Because
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh, eh eh eh)
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the war has took it's part
When the world has dealt it's cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh, eh eh eh)
You can run into my arms
It's okay don't be alarmed
Come here to me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella, eh eh eh, eh eh eh)
It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
Baby come here to me
Come here to me
It's raining
Ooh baby it's raining
You can always come here to me
Come here to me
It's pouring rain
It's pouring rain
Come here to me
Come here to me
The song “Umbrella” by JLS talks about a relationship that is built on love, trust, and loyalty. The lyrics of the song emphasize the importance of being there for each other through thick and thin. The opening lyrics convey a powerful message, “You have my heart, and we'll never be worlds apart, Maybe in magazines, But you'll still be my star” which directly expresses the intensity of love the singer has for their partner despite societal standards that may try to tear them apart. The chorus "When the sun shines, we'll shine together, Told you I'll be here forever" echoes the importance of sticking together through good and bad times.
During the second verse, the lyrics touch upon the reality of tough times: "When the war has taken its part, When the world has dealt its cards, If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart" which emphasizes the importance of supporting each other when difficult situations arise. In the bridge, the singer reassures their significant other by saying "You can run into my arms, It's okay don't be alarmed" letting them know that no matter what, they are always there to provide comfort and support. The song concludes with the same theme running throughout - the importance of love and the fact that being there for each other is what matters.
Line by Line Meaning
You have my heart
You possess my heart and love
And we'll never be worlds apart
We will always be together; never separated
Maybe in magazines
Perhaps in imaginary perfect lives portrayed in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Despite possible unrealistic expectations, you'll always be my hero
Baby 'cause in the dark
Darkest times are when you need someone who sees your true worth
You can't see shiny cars
Luxurious belongings and riches become meaningless in the dark times
And that's when you need me there
That's exactly when you need me by your side
With you I'll always share
I'll always share everything with you
Because
Because of everything we share together
When the sun shines, we'll shine together
We'll celebrate and enjoy everything together
Told you I'll be here forever
I promise to always be there for you
Said I'll always be a friend
I solemnly promise to always be your friend
Took an oath, I'ma stick it out till the end
I wholeheartedly vowed to always be by your side
Now that it's raining more than ever
It's currently an unusual, unpleasant and difficult time
Know that we'll still have each other
We have each other in good and bad times
You can stand under my umbrella
I'll always protect you and bring you comfort
You can run into my arms
I'm always here and ready to be there for you
It's okay don't be alarmed
Don't be scared, everything will be alright
Come here to me
Come to me; I'm ready to comfort you
There's no distance in between our love
Our love is so strong that no distance can separate us
So go on and let the rain pour
Don't worry about anything and let everything fall into place
I'll be all you need and more
I'll always be here for you and meet all your needs
It's raining
It's currently raining
Ooh baby it's raining
It's raining; but it'll be alright
Baby come here to me
Come to me; I'm ready to comfort you
It's pouring rain
It's heavily raining
