Pass It On
Johnzo West Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What you mean to me is more than
I could ever explain but it's okay
I love you more than words can say
But I will try to find them anyway
Cos I've been struggling for so long
But I've had you by my side
So I feel strong, Can't do no wrong
And all those times I fell on my face
Lost something I could not replace
The broken heart, false starts
When times got hard
You never let me down
You help me up till I had
both feet on the ground

What you've given me is more than
I could ever return but it's okay
Cos you know me, you understand
You see the truth unconsciously
And I got all my life to try to give it back
In my own way, so I'm okay

Cos all those times I fell on my face
Lost something I could not replace
The broken heart, false starts
When times got hard
You never let me down
You help me up till I had
both feet on the ground

Oh... And I know I can't compare to you
But I'll always keep on pushing through
Do the only thing that I know how to do
So I hope I make you proud
Even though sometimes I don't know how
Oh... yeah

Oh... yeah
Oh...

And all those times I fell on my face
Lost something I could not replace
The broken heart, false starts
When times got hard
You never let me down
You help me up till I had
both feet on the ground

End

What you mean to me is more than
I could ever explain but it's okay




I love you more than words can say
But I will try to find them anyway
