Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't know what to do without you
All I know is I love you girl
And you need me just like I need you
And I want you baby
No matter what you do
I will hold on to you
Follow your heart and you will see
You will see
Without you
I can't walk I can't talk
What can I do
Without you
I can't eat I can't sleep
What can I do
Without you
Nowhere to go nowhere to turn
What can I do
Without you

Hand in hand as we watch the moon

The lyrics to Lucy Pearl's "Without You" describe the desperation and longing that come with missing someone dearly. The singer is confessing to their love and acknowledging that they can't function without their significant other. Despite not knowing what to do, the singer is eager to hold on to their love and encourages their partner to do the same. The chorus emphasizes the immense impact that the partner has on the singer's daily life, as they can't walk, talk, eat, or sleep without them. The bridge of the song introduces a dream-like scenario of being together and emphasizes that the love is meant to be.
The lyrics are empowering in that they encourage vulnerability and honesty about emotions, especially in a society that often upholds toxic masculinity and discourages men from expressing themselves. The idea that one person can have such a profound impact on someone else's life is also relatable and can resonate with anyone who has experienced a strong, passionate love.
Overall, the lyrics to "Without You" are an emotional rollercoaster that perfectly capture the feelings of love, loss, and longing. The singer is raw and honest about their feelings, and the chorus emphasizes just how much the partner means to them.
