Born To Be Yours
Kygo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know I've given up
A hundred times before
But I know a miracle
Is not something to ignore

You take me for a fool
You take me for a fool
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours

I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours

Are you the only one
Lost in the millions?
Or are you my grain of sand
That's blowing in the wind?

I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours

I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours

I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
Oh woah

Oh woah (hey)
Born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born
I was born to be yours




I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours (oh)

Overall Meaning

The first two lines of the lyrics, “I know I've given up/A hundred times before”, suggest that the singer has faced several disappointments and failures in life, leading to a sense of hopelessness and giving up. However, the following lines “But I know a miracle/Is not something to ignore” indicate that something extraordinary, possibly referring to the love between the singer and the addressed person, has given them a renewed sense of hope despite their past setbacks.


The second verse, “Are you the only one/Lost in the millions?/Or are you my grain of sand/That's blowing in the wind?” hints at the insecurities and uncertainty that the singer faces in their relationship with the addressed person. They wonder if they are the only one who feels this way, or if their love is no more than a small and insignificant part of something much larger.


The chorus, “I never knew anybody 'til I knew you/And I know when it rains, oh, it pours/And I know I was born to be yours” underscores the transformative power of love, as it has made the singer see the world in an entirely different way since meeting the addressed person. It also implies that the singer’s entire existence is dedicated to their loved one.


In conclusion, "Born to Be Yours" is a song about finding hope and purpose through love, despite past failures and present insecurities.

Lessons from the video:

1) put yourself out there in the world even if you may feel like a monster to them.
2) be yourself, goofy as you come
3) mingle with people, chase after your target
4) get ready to be hit in the face with a block of wood
5) after you have been beaten down and chained don't sulk to much
6) look up and see the people around when you are at lowest point (the people next to you during such times are who really matter)
7) after you found the people next to you at your lowest become a beast!
8) save yourself FIRST, then try to save others.



@velmnate

I've been listening to extremely talented music producers like Alan Walker , Kygo , Marshmello , Skrillex , Diplo , Avicii , Dj Snake and many more since I was 12 years old and always dreamed about making music like them, I started chasing my dream just 2 months ago and recently started my music career with my first track "Nevermind" ...
I hope one day I'll reach at the level where they are ...

I know I've given up
A hundred times before
But I know a miracle
Is not something to ignore
You take me for a fool
You take me for a fool
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
Are you the only one
Lost in the millions?
Or are you my grain of sand
That's blowing in the wind?
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
I never knew anybody 'til I knew you
And I know when it rains, oh, it pours
And I know I was born to be yours
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
Oh woah
Oh woah (hey)
Born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born
I was born to be yours
I was born, born, born, born
I was born to be yours (oh)

Not sure how many of you have got the inner meaning of this amazing song.

We all are ugly living creatures who have a beautiful soul and a heart. But often we get lost in the idea of living a picture perfect life. The moment you thought this would be my soulmate you get trapped in a dark place where nobody can reach for your help. We are the only ones who are capable of get out of it. Sometimes we get lucky enough to find our life partner as crazy as we are. And some miss it without noticing. Live your life how you want. Love someone who you care for. Create opportunities, don’t wait for them.

Thanks for keep reading this. Peace ✌️
