Question It All
Lucy Rose Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you first walked in
When you took that step, you took my breath
Then you took the rest
As the days went by with this newfound man
Right by my side
Now here's goodbye

'Cause it hurts when it hurts
And it kills when it kills
And the pain won't fade
But with time you will heal

I can hear you calling me
I can hear you from across this open sea
And I can hear your voice as if it's calling me
Calling for somebody to help you be free
But it's not me

And the more I learn
And the more you talk, the more I've thought
Away, goodbye

'Cause it hurts when it hurts
And it kills when it kills
And the pain won't fade
But with time you will heal
And it hurts when it hurts
And it kills when it kills
And the pain won't fade
But with time you will heal

I can hear you calling me
I can hear you from across this open sea
And I can hear your voice as if it's calling me
Calling for somebody to help you be free
But it's not me
'Cause I can't change it all
And I can't make it right
But I could give you warmth in your coldest night
But I can't change it all
And I can't make it right
But I could give you warmth in your coldest night
I can hear you calling me
And I can hear you from across this open sea
And I can hear your voice as if it's calling me




Calling for somebody to help you be free
But it's not me

Line by Line Meaning

When you first walked in
When you entered my life for the first time


When you took that step, you took my breath
Your presence took my breath away


Then you took the rest
And then you took over my life


As the days went by with this newfound man
As we spent time together as a couple


Right by my side
Always by my side


Now here's goodbye
But now it's time to say goodbye


'Cause it hurts when it hurts
Breaking up is painful


And it kills when it kills
It feels like it's killing us inside


And the pain won't fade
The pain doesn't go away easily


But with time you will heal
But eventually, you will recover from the pain


I can hear you calling me
I can feel your need for help


I can hear you from across this open sea
Even though you are far away


And I can hear your voice as if it's calling me
I can sense the urgency in your voice


Calling for somebody to help you be free
Asking for someone to help you escape a difficult situation


But it's not me
But I am not the one who can help you


And the more I learn
As I keep gathering information


And the more you talk, the more I've thought
As you keep sharing your problems with me, I have been thinking more about them


Away, goodbye
And now, it's time for me to move on and say goodbye


But I could give you warmth in your coldest night
Even though I cannot solve your problems, I can comfort you


But I can't change it all
I cannot change everything that is wrong in your life


And I can't make it right
I cannot fix everything for you

this song moves me, makes me pause from whatever I'm doing and be absorbed by the chilled vibe and beautiful, beautiful lyrics and tone of voice. It is my Lockdown anthem to check me into reality. I have been promoting it to others like an excited kid at xmas. Thank you so, so much x
