I'd Give You The Moon
Jake Coco Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You were always changing clothes
Torn sundress and panty hose
Crumpled up upon my floor.
And you'd abandoned all your dreams
Gave them up or so it seemed
For the chance to be my girl.

And the world won't ever change, if you only stay the same.

I'd give you the moon if I could.
I'd give you the stars if I could.
I'd give you my heart if you would take me as I am.

You were always switching roles.
Now you love me, now you don't
Like a lover in disguise.

And I was always chasing dreams, without an end or so it seemed, but I guess that's how it goes.
And the world won't ever change, if you only stay the same.

I'd give you the moon if I could.
I'd give you the stars if I could.
I'd give you my heart if you would take me as I am.

And if only stars coud shine as bright as you and I
Maybe then I'd grow some wings and I could learn to fly.

I'd give you the moon if I could.

I'd give you the stars if I could.
I'd give you my heart if you would take me as I am.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jake Coco's song "I'd Give You The Moon" tells a story of a relationship dynamic that is constantly changing, between two individuals who are imperfect yet undeniably in love with each other. The song paints a picture of a woman who is torn between her dreams and her love for her partner. She appears to have sacrificed her dreams for her partner in the hope of being with him. The lyrics describe how the world won't ever change if we refuse to embrace change, as the woman did, by giving up her dreams.


The chorus of the song echoes the great lengths the singer would go to please and cherish his lover. He would give her the world if he could, the moon, the stars, his heart, but only if she accepted him just as he is. The second verse touches a little more on the dynamics of the relationship. The woman's love for the singer is sometimes superficial, and sometimes she withdraws, leaving the singer feeling like he's chasing a never-ending dream.


Furthermore, the last part of the song suggests that the love the singer feels for his partner shines so brightly that it outshines even the stars in the sky. The singer confirms his feelings for his partner again by stating how he would give her the moon and the stars if he could. Overall, the lyrics explore the complexities of love and being in a relationship while still trying to fulfill individual desires.

I spend hours every evening "wandering around" YouTube just for the fun of it, and to see what is out there.  I'm really impressed by the talent that can be found in, literally, every corner of the world.  And then, every so often, hidden in the back-ground of thousands of performers we are blessed with who I never would have heard about; scotsings, justinrobinett, tomscotland, Michael Grimm, ThePianoGuys, and now, Jake Coco.  Jake, if you read this stuff, I am impressed.  Obviously, you've been around for a while, but "the wait" was worth it, you are awesome, I really like your style.

I give props to Jake Coco! The lyrics are so meaningful! Worth paying attention to, unlike all those other songs out there that just put you in a daze, with their repeating words and sound effects. This song comes from some place, it tells a story a lot of people can relate to. Truly, an amazing song!
