Beside Me
Jennifer Milan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never thought I'd found them
And even if I'd do
What do I talk to?
Well I know you don't lie
Looking straight in my eyes
Cos you've been there before
You see there's someone else
Who'se really not so ordinary
All the things I've tried to be
You make me feel that not so very far
Without you
I'm still me
I go on
But I'm stronger than I ever thought I'd be
When you're beside me
What did I do before?
I don't remember
I don't look back no more
And I don't want to
You turned the night on
You call me back home
I know that it's OK
When you look inside of me
You see there's someone else
Who'se really not so ordinary
All the things I've tried to be
You make me feel that not so very far
Without you
I'm still me
I go on
But I'm stronger than I ever thought I'd be
When you're beside me
I'm not alone
Even when I fall
I'm not alone
Cos I'm standing beside someone else
Who's really not so ordinary
All the things I've tried to be
You make me feel that not so very far
Without you
I'm still me
I go on
But I'm stronger than I ever thought I'd be
When you're beside me
The lyrics to Jennifer Milan's song "Beside Me" explore the theme of finding oneself and feeling complete through the presence of someone else. The song opens with the singer expressing her search for the right words and her uncertainty about who to speak to. But she finds solace in someone else's presence - someone she knows would never lie to her and has seen her at her worst. The person's understanding of her makes the singer feel not so ordinary and confident in her own skin.
The chorus emphasizes just how integral this person is to the singer's life. She questions what she did before without them, and marvels at how they've made her stronger. Even when she falls, she's not alone because she stands beside someone who makes her feel complete.
The song is a beautiful expression of love and gratitude towards someone who has made a significant impact on the singer's life. It speaks to the human need for connection and how finding someone who truly understands us can be life-changing.
