Song for You
Lunatica/John Payne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You hold my hand when I tremble with fear
You bring me light when I burst out in tears
And now I want to thank you, dear, for all the things you've done
I can't deny (that) you showed me the right way

[Chorus]
For the light, for the love
For the truth in your eyes
I am grateful to have such a friend by my side
For the tears, for the joy
For not asking me why
We can hold our hands up and reach for the sky

You kept your faith when my words were untrue
You made me laugh when I was feeling blue
Always giving, never asking for more than a smile upon my face
Together we will conquer the whole world

[Chorus]

(You) don't have to worry
We'll stay together all of our days
You can trust in my words, you can rely on me
And when dark clouds obscure the sky
I'll be at your side
Until the weight on your shoulders fades away





[Chorus]

This song is so beautiful. Specially when you have lost a friend! So beautifully made! 🤘

Randy Levy

So good. I love the positivity and melody that is Lunatica's strength. But I'm sad that Lunatica has seemed to have fizzled out. Hopefully they can finally get a new album finally finished. They deserve better.

Jeisson Sánchez

Do you know if they broke up?
