Mark Wills Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You were sacred to me
Like a cathedral rising
High into the blue
Bet you didn't know
All the courage I have came from you
It was you
You were my tower of strength
Through the hurricane
Like a child
I found peace in your
Arms time and again
Time and again
You were my life through the storm
You were my shelter that kept me warm
You were my heart, my soul
My kingdom come, the breath I breathe
The sky, the sun, the moon, and stars all wrapped into one
In other words
You're my universe
Bet you didn't know you inspired my dreams
You help me believe in myself
Yes, you did
Bet you didn't know you were the only one
Who stood by me where there was no one else
When there was no one else
You were my life through the storm
You were my shelter that kept me warm
You were my heart, my soul
My kingdom come, the breath I breathe
The sky, the sun, the moon, and stars all wrapped into one
In other words
You're my universe
You were my life through the storm
You were my shelter that kept me warm
You were my heart, my soul
My kingdom come, the breath I breathe
The sky, the sun, the moon, and stars all wrapped into one
In other words
You're my universe
The song "Universe" by Mark Wills is a touching tribute to a person who was beloved and inspiring to the singer. The lyrics express gratitude for this person, who was apparently unaware of the impact they had on the singer's life. The song begins with the lines, "Bet you didn't know/You were sacred to me/Like a cathedral rising/High into the blue." This simile compares the person's importance to that of a majestic cathedral, rising up into the sky. The singer goes on to say that this person gave him courage and was his "tower of strength" even in the midst of a hurricane.
The chorus repeats the sentiment that this person was everything to the singer, embodying the sky, the sun, the moon, and the stars. The lines "Bet you didn't know you inspired my dreams/You help me believe in myself/Yes, you did/Bet you didn't know you were the only one/Who stood by me where there was no one else" emphasize that this person provided unwavering support and encouragement to the singer, even when he felt completely alone. The final line of the chorus, "In other words/You're my universe," sums up the entire song, expressing that this person was the center of the singer's world, providing all the light and warmth he needed.
In general, "Universe" is a testament to the enduring power of human connection and the profound impact that one person can have on another's life. It is a song that speaks to the heart and soul of anyone who has ever been touched by the love and support of another person.
