Just Because
Martin Dupont Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I spent my time reading the letters
I spent my time reading the letters
looking your face in all the photos
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
I drive my car thinking of you
I was alone speaking to you
And every word sung in my head
I feel my body full of you
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)
(I love you)
I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)

I've been a love song in my head
(In my head)

Overall Meaning

The song "Just Because" by Martin Dupont is about an individual who is driving their car, obsessing over a lost love. The first verse highlights the individual’s deep attachment to the lost lover. They speak to the lover even when they are alone, and every word that has been sung in their head reminds them of the lover. The singer then recalls the time spent reading letters and looking at photos of the lover. These memories have kept the person bound to the past love affair. Despite the end of the relationship, the individual sings, "I feel my body full of you." This line emphasizes the lasting impact that the past relationship has had on the singer.

Throughout the chorus, the repetition of "I’ve been a love song in my head" emphasizes how the person has internalized this relationship, elevating it to a prominent and important state in their mind. Despite the end of the relationship, the love still permeates their every thought. As the song draws to a close with the line, "I love you," it remains unclear whether the singer is saying this to the past love or themselves, encapsulating the ambiguity surrounding a broken heart.
