Flashlight
Jessie J(제시 제이) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When tomorrow comes
I'll be on my own
Feeling frightened of
The things that I don't know
When tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
And though the road is long
I look up to the sky
And in the dark I found,
I lost hope that I won't fly
And I sing along, I sing along
And I sing along

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight (flashlight)
You're my flashlight (flashlight)
You're my flashlight

I see the shadows long beneath the mountain top
I'm not afraid when the rain won't stop
'Cause you light the way
You light the way, you light the way

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
Kick start my heart when you shine it in my eyes
I can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
(Light light light you're my flashlight, light, light)
Light light you're my flashlight
Light light light light light, oh
(Light light light you're my flashlight, light, light)
You're my flash, oh

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
Can't stop my heart when you shinin' in my eyes
I can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
(You're my flashlight)
You're getting me, getting me through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight
'Cause you're my flashlight
You're my flashlight

You're my flashlight
Light light
You're my flashlight
Light light ye-yeah





You're my flashlight

Line by Line Meaning

When tomorrow comes
As the future approaches


I'll be on my own
I'll be independent, without aid from anyone


Feeling frightened of
Feeling scared of


The things that I don't know
Unknown circumstances which instill fear within me


And though the road is long
Despite the lengthy journey ahead


I look up to the sky
I gaze upon the sky


And in the dark I found
In the absence of light, I discovered


I lost hope that I won't fly
I felt disheartened, believing that I cannot achieve success


And I sing along, I sing along
I join in song, singing with the music


I got all I need when I got you and I
I feel complete when I have you by my side


I look around me, and see a sweet life
I observe my surroundings and appreciate the good things in life


I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
Although things seem bleak, you're my beacon of hope and light

I observe dark areas contrasted by lighter ones


I'm not afraid when the rain won't stop
When life gets tough, I maintain courage and persistence through the challenges


Cause you light the way
You help guide me through these challenges


You light the way, you light the way
You continuously guide me through the rough patches


Light light light you're my flashlight, light, light
You provide light in my darkest moments

FLASHLIGHT LYRICS
When tomorrow comes I'll be on my own
Feeling frightened of the things that I don't know
When tomorrow comes, tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes

I know the road is long, now look up to the sky
And in the dark I found last hope that I won't fly
Then I sing along, I sing along
Then I sing along

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night

I can't stop my heart when you're shining in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
'Cause you're my flashlight
My flashlight
You're my flashlight

I see the shadows low beneath the mountain top
I'm not afraid when the rain won't stop
'Cause you light the way, you light the way
You light the way

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night

I can't stop my heart when you're shining in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night
(Light, light, light, you're my flashlight)

I got all I need when I got you and I
I look around me, and see a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night

I can't stop my heart when you're shining in my eyes
Can't lie, it's a sweet life
I'm stuck in the dark but you're my flashlight
You're getting me, getting me through the night

'Cause you're my flashlight
'Cause you're my flashlight
You're my flashlight
You're my flashlight, light, light
You're my flashlight, light, light
You're my flashlight
