There for Me
José Cura / Sarah Brightman / The London Symphony Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There for me, every time I've been away
Will you be there for me, thinking of me ev'ry day
Are you my destiny, words I never dared to say
Will you be there for me?

Just think of you and me, we could never toe the line
It's such a mystery just to hear you say you're mine
And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me

Se non sei con me, mi sembra grigia la città
Camminando solo i piccoli vedo giocar
Volti e voci del passato che non ricordavo più
Mi chiedono

You are still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirà che non molto può capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me

And while you're close to me, so close to me
Just hold me

Dimmi quanto tempo ancora resterai con me
Dimmi quante cose mi nascondi dentro te
Molti sogni abbiamo che al-fin potremmo vivere
Io spero che

You are still there for me?
Forse qualche giorno poi
Il mondo capirà che non molto può capitar
E tu ci sei per me senti cosa dicono
But you're just there for me

There for me




There for me
There for me

Overall Meaning

The song "There for Me" by José Cura and Sarah Brightman is a love ballad that expresses the singer's emotional vulnerabilities and their longing for another person to be there for them in every moment. The lyrics also touch upon the fear of expressing one's emotions, uncertainty about the future, and a desire to hold onto the present moment. The chorus repeats the phrase "Will you be there for me?" which encapsulates the underlying theme of the song.


The English lyrics are interspersed with Italian verses, which add an additional layer of emotional complexity to the song. The Italian verses speak to the feelings of isolation that the singer experiences when they are away from their loved one. The lyrics describe the drabness of the city without the other person and the nostalgia that surfaces when the singer reminisces about their past. The chorus in the Italian verse uses a similar structure as the English version, but it is slightly different: "You're still there for me?" which emphasizes the singer's desire for confirmation that their loved one will continue to be there for them.


Overall, "There for Me" is a powerful ode to love and the desire for emotional connection. The lyrics highlight the importance of vulnerability and honesty in relationships, and the beauty of having someone who is always there, even in the most challenging moments.

Since I’m a Catholic, this sounds like a total love song between Jesus and my soul. So incredibly beautiful. These two people are insanely talented ❤️

@utahdan231

These two people are great opera singers. Sarah sings classical cross over , Jose Cura is fantastic tenor and conductor of opera.

@cosmicmauve

These two sound so good together. I love Jose Cura's voice, it (and he) is so masculine and blends so well with her angelic yet powerful voice

@evitaduran9164
