Heart To Heart
James Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There are times when I don't know where I stand (woah, sometimes)
You make me feel like I'm a boy and not a man (woah, sometimes)
There are times when you don't give me a smile (woah, sometimes)
I lie awake at night and worry for a while (woah, woah)

It's okay, 'cause I know
You shine even on a rainy day
And I can find your halo
Guides me to wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because
You and I won't part 'til we die
You should know
We see eye to eye, heart to heart

There are times when I cry, 'cause you shed no tears (woah, sometimes)
Your mind's so far away, but your body's right here (woah, sometimes)
There are times when I just walked out your door (woah, sometimes)
And thought I'd never get to see you anymore (woah, woah)

It's okay, 'cause I know
You shine even on a rainy day
And I can find your halo
Guides me to wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because
You and I won't part 'til we die
You should know
We see eye to eye, heart to heart

Woah
Woah (woah, sometimes)
Woah
Woah

Wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because
You and I won't part till we die
You should know
We see eye to eye, heart to heart





I can find your halo
Guides me to wherever you fall

Overall Meaning

"Heart to Heart" by James Blunt is a touching ballad about the ups and downs of a romantic relationship. The song speaks of the vulnerability, doubts, and insecurities that come with loving someone, but also the unwavering commitment to standing by each other no matter what. The lyrics paint a picture of a fluctuating relationship, where sometimes the singer feels like a boy who needs protection and assurance, and sometimes he needs to be the strong one for his partner. It acknowledges that there will be times of pain and tears, but ultimately, the two souls involved understand each other and can connect on a truly intimate and compassionate level.


The chorus of the song states that the person being addressed in the song is like a shining halo, someone who can guide the singer through the toughest of times. The words "eye to eye, heart to heart" further emphasize that the connection between the two goes beyond just physical attraction or a casual relationship. It is a deep bond built on mutual respect, trust, and understanding. The last few lines of the song suggest that even if the relationship doesn't last forever, the two will always have each other's backs.

There are times when I cry, 'cause you shed no tears
Your mind's so far away, but your body's right here
There are times when I just walked out your door
And thought I'd never get to see you anymore.

It's OK, 'cause I know

And I can find your halo
Guides me to wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because

Oh Sometimes
Oh sometimes
Oh sometimes
Oh

Wherever you fall
If you need a hand to hold
I'll come running, because
You and I won't part till we die
You should know
We see eye to eye, heart to heart
