With Me
Keith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know what you see when you look at me
As we walk down the aisle
Little pink tutu, bows and tennis shoes
In the wide eyes of your child
Those are all the memories you will cherish and you'll carry
No matter how much time has come and gone

Daddy dance with me
I want you to see the woman I've become.
Daddy don't let go
I want you to know I'll always need your love.
Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl for life.

Don't know what to do when I look at you
Words can't say enough
What you've done for me
You gave me what I need
You were tender, you were tough
'Cause the world you built around me is the strength that will surround me
And protect me now that I am on my own

Daddy dance with me
I want you to see the woman I've become.
Daddy don't let go
I want you to know I'll always need your love.
Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl

You gave me faith, you gave me life
You trusted me to live it right
And now you give your blessing on his love and mine.

Daddy dance with me
I want you to know I'll always need your love.




Today I became his wife
But I'll be your baby girl for life.

Overall Meaning

The first verse talks about the memories that the father will cherish as he walks his daughter down the aisle, dressed in her tutu, bows, and tennis shoes. The daughter acknowledges how much her father has done for her and how he has shaped her into the woman she has become. Despite getting married and becoming someone's wife, she will always remain her father's baby girl.


In the second verse, the daughter is overwhelmed with emotions and cannot express in words how much her father means to her. She acknowledges how her father was both tender and tough, providing her with the strength and protection she needed to be on her own. Moreover, she appreciates how her father trusted and had faith in her to live her life the right way.

It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all

All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near you drown out the crowd
Old Mister Webster could never define
What's being said between your heart and mine
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
A touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
Now you say it best when you say nothing at all

Musician here... learning this version to cover playing solo... vocally challenging... but I'll get it.

@zks242

Just heard it today for the first time in a long time. I dont listen to Country music as much as i used to, but everytime i do, i realize how great music truly used to be. You actually feel something , makes ya think of family or loved ones…

Now i just feel today’s music is just so… Empty? Emotionless? Its strange, but this was and always be quality music.
