Jamie Dee Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They're waking up the world
How many wandering eyes are calling
A better place for love
People can learn to stay alive
Just like me and you
People can learn how to survive
Everybody needs love (4x)
How many promises are trying
To keep the big fire burning
How many helping hands are hiding
To turn the world around
How many tears are falling
They're waking up the world
How many wondering eyes are calling
A better place for love
These Jamie Dee lyrics explore the human experience in relation to survival, love and community. The opening lines speak to the universal experience of tears and the recognition that, collectively, we can move the world through our shared emotional experiences. The lyrics suggest that wandering eyes are searching for something more, and that the better place we are all seeking is love.
The second verse speaks to the importance of solidarity in the face of adversity. Promises are made to keep the fire of hope and passion burning, and hands reach out to help turn a world in crisis around. The final lines of the song remind us of the importance of love and the way it can bring us together and help us overcome obstacles.
Overall, the song speaks to the idea that, despite the struggles we face, people are resilient and can come together to create positive change in a world that can feel overwhelming and chaotic.
