James Blunt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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

There are times when I don't know where I stand
There are moments when I lack clarity in our relationship
You make me feel like I'm a boy and not a man
Your words and actions sometimes make me feel juvenile as opposed to mature
There are times when you don't give me a smile
At times, you withhold your usual happiness and it concerns me
I lie awake at night and worry for a while
At night, I am overcome with concern for our relationship
It's OK, 'cause I know
Despite these concerns, I can still feel reassured
You shine even on a rainy day
You are a source of light even during depressing times
And I can find your halo
I can always locate the positive traits in you
Guides me to wherever you fall
These traits help me navigate our relationship through good and bad times
If you need a hand to hold
Whenever you require my support and help,
I'll come running, because
I'll be present to lend you my assistance
You and I won't part till we die
Our connection is life-long and unbreakable
You should know
You must realize
We see eye to eye, heart to heart
We have similar views, values and a mutual love for each other
There are times when I cry, 'cause you shed no tears
Your lack of emotion sometimes makes me feel disheartened
Your mind's so far away, but your body's right here
At times, you seem present with your body but mentally you are absent
There are times when I just walked out your door
There are instances when I left your side
And thought I'd never get to see you anymore.
Feared that I had lost my connection with you forever
Oh Sometimes
Sometimes
Wherever you fall
No matter where life takes you
If you need a hand to hold
If you need my assistance and support
You and I won't part till we die
We will remain connected throughout our lifetimes
You should know
Please note
We see eye to eye, heart to heart
Our mutual values and love for each other are a constant in our relationship
