There You Are
Kid Brothers Of St. Frank Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You are there, in autumn gold or summer green,
You are there, to lend enchantment to the scene.
I hear music, and all because you are there.
In a mist, behind a window in the dawn,

We have kissed, but when I reached for you, you'd gone...
You come and you go, like April snow,
Until I wonder, darling, are you real, or an illusion I embrace
Half a dream, the other half that laughing face





Although, in my heart, I know that you are there
You are there, You are there!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kid Brothers Of St. Frank's song "There You Are" speak of the presence of a loved one in the singer's life. The first two lines of the song talk about how this person is always present in nature, whether it be when leaves turn golden in the fall, or when everything is lush and green during summer. The singer then goes on to describe how their presence enhances the world around them and how they inspire music within the singer.


The next couple of lines are a little more melancholic, as the singer talks about a moment when they woke up in the early morning and saw this person through a mist behind a window. They kiss but when the singer reaches out for them, they are gone. This portrays the idea that this person may only be temporary in the singer's life, coming and going like April snow. But despite this uncertainty, the singer still believes in their presence in their heart.


The final lines of "There You Are" reaffirm this idea of the person's existence, and the singer repeats that "You are there" twice for emphasis. It seems as though the singer is trying to remind themselves that even if this person is sometimes hard to grasp or comprehend, they do exist in some shape or form.


Overall, the lyrics of "There You Are" are quite beautiful in their simplicity, evoking feelings of both happiness and longing. This song speaks to the idea that sometimes, a person can have a profound impact on our lives even if they are only there for a short time.


Line by Line Meaning

You are there, in autumn gold or summer green,
You make any scene beautiful


You are there, to lend enchantment to the scene.
You add magic to any moment


I hear music, and all because you are there.
You bring joy to my life


In a mist, behind a window in the dawn,
You are sometimes hard to see clearly


We have kissed, but when I reached for you, you'd gone...
You often disappear before I am ready


You come and you go, like April snow,
You are fleeting and unpredictable


Until I wonder, darling, are you real, or an illusion I embrace
Sometimes I question whether or not you are truly there


Half a dream, the other half that laughing face
You are a beautiful, yet complicated, enigma


Although, in my heart, I know that you are there
Deep down, I believe in your existence


You are there, You are there!
You are a constant presence, no matter how fleeting and unpredictable

He is! In Window Rock on September 16th... of course, he'll be speaking at the event but he'll definitely be there :-)

Marcia Droeger

I know! I questioned myself, e.g. voice, mannerisms, etc.

Chris Lyons

There are still a number of folks (old friends, acquaintances, and folks who never even heard of Rich) that get together to do this, though not all under the name of Legacy (which is now only in Wichita). A group is headed out to a reservation in SW Colorado next week for exactly this...
