I Got You
Kasey Butler Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

We're standing on the edge
And I'm wondering if we take a stand
Will we, fall from the sky
Or will we learn to fly
You just gotta believe
That you were wrong to think that I could look another way
You're the only one who ever meant a thing to me
I could never let you go
When you're far away I still feel you close

So now, close your eyes
If you're ready to fall again with me tonight
Take my hand, it's allright

[Chorus:]
And don't look down
Don't be afraid now
Even after everything we've been through
I'll never let you fall
And through it all, one thing stays true
Baby, I got you
So, just reach out
Don't give up now
All we gotta do is make it through somehow
Here is my hand for you to hold on to
I got you
I got you

Can't help but read between the lines
Something's going on
It's in your eyes, don't lie
Why would you just pretend
That nothing's different
I see it there in your eyes
We always promised that we'd treat each other honestly
If you were honest you would tell me what it is you need
All my time is yours
All my love is pure
Boy you know for sure that you got the best of me

So, close your eyes
If you're ready to fall again with me tonight
Take my hand, it's alright

[Chorus:]
And don't look down
Don't be afraid now
Even after everything we've been through
I'll never let you fall
And through it all, one thing stays true
Baby, I got you
So, just reach out
Don't give up now
All we gotta do is make it through somehow
Here is my hand for you to hold on to
I got you
I got you

You know you never have to go it alone
I'll always be by your side
And when all is finally said and done
I know we're going to be alright

[Chorus: x2]
Don't look down
Don't be afraid now
Even after everything we've been through
I'll never let you fall
And through it all, one thing stays true
Baby, I got you
So, just reach out
Don't give up now
All we gotta do is make it through somehow
Here is my hand for you to hold on to




I got you
I got you
