Long for You
Mar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Even when I never felt loved
And every time I thought that I was wrong
I'm not alone
Even though I feel so lost
I need you to let me be yours again
I have thought that I could live without you
And far from your eyes
For so long
I have lived my life adrift in the dark
And I don't know why
I've been alone too long
Warm me up
Cause everything around is so cold
I need you to let me be yours again
For so long
I have begged you to heal all my wounds
And my scars
So long
I've been looking for your peace within me
To rest in your arms
I've been alone in the dark
For so long
I have tried to understand who I am
And now that I know
Oh Lord
I feel your peace within my soul and my mind
I'll rest in your arms
I'll rest in your arms
Oh Lord
I'll rest in your arms
I'll rest in your arms
The lyrics of "Long for You" by Mar carry a deep emotional intensity that speaks of longing and belonging to a parental figure or a divine entity. The song begins with the singer admitting that despite feeling unloved, he still considers himself the offspring of the person he is addressing. It seems like the father figure has been absent, or the singer has been estranged from him for an extended period. He then confesses that he feels lost, even though he knows he is not alone. The second stanza reinforces this feeling of wandering and drifting, with the singer acknowledging that he has been living a life adrift in the dark.
The chorus of the song expresses a desperate desire to return to the father figure's embrace. The singer recognizes that he has been living too long without him and needs someone to warm him up in the coldness that surrounds him. The third stanza reveals that the singer has been begging the father figure to heal his wounds and scars and provide him with peace. He has been searching for this peace within himself but did not find it until he understands who he is.
Overall, "Long for You" is a song about longing, loss, and ultimately finding peace. The song's theme speaks of a person's search for meaning and sense of belonging, either to a family member, loved one, or a higher divine power. It emphasizes the deep emotional connection that humans carry in their hearts with someone they consider a fatherly or guiding figure.

I was your son
Despite feeling unloved, I have never strayed from the fact that I am your child
Even when I never felt loved
Despite my feeling of being unimportant, I never lost my connection with you
And every time I thought that I was wrong
Every moment of self-doubt, I knew you still stood by me
I'm not alone
While alone, I still have faith that you are with me
Even though I feel so lost
Despite feeling lost and helpless, you keep me going
I need you to let me be yours again
I yearn to regain the sense of comfort being in your arms gave me
For too long
My estrangement from you has gone far too long
I have thought that I could live without you
I had believed I could live without you, but now I see that wasn't the case
And far from your eyes
Away from your comforting gaze
For so long
It has been a long time since I last saw you
I have lived my life adrift in the dark
I've wandered aimlessly without your guidance
And I don't know why
I have no explanation for this long absence
I've been alone too long
The loneliness has taken its toll on me
Warm me up
Comfort me with warmth and love
Cause everything around is so cold
Everything seems empty and devoid of love
For so long
It's been ages
I have begged you to heal all my wounds
I have cried out for your help to ease my suffering
And my scars
Physical and emotional scars from the past
So long
It has been a while
I've been looking for your peace within me
I've been searching frantically for the serenity you bring
To rest in your arms
To finally feel your embrace
I've been alone in the dark
I have suffered miserably without your presence
For so long
It's been far too long
I have tried to understand who I am
I tried to find my purpose and meaning in life
And now that I know
But now I realize
Oh Lord
My Lord and savior
I feel your peace within my soul and my mind
I finally feel at peace with my whole being
I'll rest in your arms
With you, I find true rest and comfort
Oh Lord
I call out to you
I'll rest in your arms
I have found my solace in you

Much love. Visually enriching. Aurally outstanding.
Is an acoustic variation a possibility (similar to the London Minutes)?
P.S. Washington, D.C. Would welcome you warmly, should there be a US tour...
