My Everything
Jennifer Brown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say that life is always changing
And love comes and goes
Wherever time may finally take us
Oh, heaven only knows

People can go apart
Lately you seem so far
Maybe the sun sets every day
But don't slip away

You are my everything
You are my dreams come true
Oh, baby, how I love you
You are my everything
Wherever life may take us through
I don't want to lose you

I wake up early in the morning
And I watch you sleep
I pray for all the lies between us (Yes, I do)
May time safely keep

Without the day that comes
With every setting sun
Don't let the dark take a stop
Don't let our dreams touch the ground

You are my everything
You are my dreams come true
Oh, baby, how I love you
You are my everything
Wherever life may take us through
I don't want to lose you

The road of life may twist and turn
There's so many bridges to cross
Don't let our love be lost

You are my everything (Yes, you are)
Oh, you're my dream come true
You are my everything
Wherever life may take us through
I don't want to lose you

Oooh, you are my everything
Oh, yes you are




You're my everything
I don't want to lose you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jennifer Brown's "My Everything" express a deep fear of losing a loved one and the desire to hold on to them despite the uncertainties of life. The song starts by acknowledging the constant change in life and the fleeting nature of love. It conveys a sense of vulnerability and uncertainty about where life may lead, but firmly affirms the strong emotional connection felt towards the person addressed in the song.


The first verse hints at a growing distance between the singer and their loved one, emphasizing the need to stay connected despite the challenges they may face. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and the fear of losing someone who means everything. The chorus is a powerful declaration of love and devotion, describing the loved one as the singer's "everything" and their "dreams come true." The repetition of this sentiment further emphasizes the intensity of the feelings expressed.


In the second verse, the lyrics shift to a more intimate and personal moment as the singer watches their loved one sleep, and prays for the strength to overcome the issues that separate them. The lyrics suggest a desire for time to heal the wounds and maintain the bond between them. The bridge of the song portrays life as a journey with obstacles, but emphasizes the importance of not letting their love fade away.
