BECAUSE OF YOU
Kym Marsh Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With a pot of gold
No happy ever after
No hands to hold
Then you opened your eyes
For the very first time
Such a beautiful day
Were there in my arms
It took my breath away
You're my love
You're my life
You're the world
Upon my hands
Every word
Every smile
All I need to understand
Nothing more
Could I need
Now that every dreams come true
And it's all because of you
Sleep tight now little angels
May God bless you
Don't be afraid of dreaming
'Cause momma's watchin you
Sing a sweet lulaby
For the tears that you cried
Kiss your fears away
Every cloud in the sky
Now it passes me by
You bring a brighter day
You're my love
You're my life
You're the world
Upon my hands
Every word
Every smile
All I need to understand
Nothing more
Could I need
Now that every dreams come true
And it's all because of you
Yes it's all because of you
'Cause your my brightest star
When your face lights up
With laughter
I'll give you cuddles and kisses
And happy ever after
And the best thing is
Knowing you love me too
You're my love
You're my life
You're the world
Upon my hands
Every word
Every smile
All I need to understand
Nothing more
Could I need
Now that every dreams come true
And it's all because of you
Yeah it's all because of you
The lyrics to Kym Marsh's song "Because of You" describe the unconditional love that a mother has for her child. She talks about how before her child was born, she didn't have the "happy ever after" or "hands to hold" that she had always dreamed of. However, once her child was born and she held them in her arms, all of her dreams came true and it "took her breath away."
The lyrics also touch on the mother's role in comforting and protecting her child. She sings about singing her child a lullaby to ease their fears, and promising them "happy ever after" and cuddles and kisses. The love between the mother and child is portrayed as the most important thing in the world to the mother, and it's all because of her child.
Overall, the song is a beautiful tribute to the bond between a mother and child, and how the child has changed the mother's life for the better.

My rainbow never ended
I was never able to find true happiness
With a pot of gold
I had no wealth or material possessions to make up for it
No happy ever after
I didn't have the fairy tale ending I had hoped for
No hands to hold
I didn't have anyone to share my life with and support me
Then you opened your eyes
But then you were born and came into my life
For the very first time
And everything changed for the better

I show you physical affection to show you how much I love you
And happy ever after
I want us to have a lifetime of love and happiness together
And the best thing is
But the most amazing part is
Knowing you love me too
You also love me back just as much as I love you, making our bond even stronger
