You Are Everything
Jake Thomas Turnbull Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or are we wasting our time, please tell me
Are we better off as friends, or could this be love
Could you be the one, I've been searching for
Cos we settled down, hold my hand, and dance with me while we still can
and I've seen your eyes piercing blue, look what's became of me and you
We were two young kids, drunk in love, higher than the birds flying above,
'cos you are everything, the light and the darkness, you are everything, nothing can harm us, you are everything, this is everything, I love everything you've ever touched
I saw you exchange numbers with an unknown guy, and it pulled on my heart, 'cos even though you're not mine, in my eyes you are,
and in my eyes you shine just like a star and I know we could go far
'cos you are everything, the light and the darkness, you are everything, nothing can harm us, you are everything, this is everything, I love everything that you've ever touched
In "You Are Everything," Jake Thomas Turnbull ponders whether the relationship he shares with his lover is going anywhere. He questions whether they are wasting their time and if they would be better off as friends. Despite his doubts, Turnbull is unable to let go of his lover because he has fallen in love with her. He remembers the good times they shared and how he felt when they first fell in love. He highlights the fact that she is everything to him, the light and the darkness, and nothing can harm them.
The song is sad yet hopeful, as Turnbull acknowledges the complexity of his emotions. He sees his lover exchange numbers with another man, but he recognizes that even though they are not together, she will always be the one for him. He believes that there is potential for them to have a future together, and he is willing to work for it. The lyrics showcase the feelings of confusion and desperation that come with being in love, and how difficult it can be to move on when you have invested so much of yourself into a relationship.

Jake Thomas Turnbull song Do Anything is a sweet romantic song about putting everything into a relationship, which when you think of it is probably the most riskiest thing we do in our lives.
