Everywhere
Niall Horan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I catch your eyes and don't blink an eyelid
Feels like the world locked us on an island
An island without waves
I try and try to forget you
But your mother thinks that I'm the best for you
Try and try to erase you
Feels like every time I turn a corner
You're standing right there
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere
I swear it's hard to think
It's hard to breathe when you're in the air
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
When I think I'm all alone
And my heart's under control
Why is loving you not fair?
You're everywhere
The ground beneath my feet's a bit colder
I see your face in people I don't know
Feels like the world is twisting in slow-mo
And I'm stuck in one place
I try and try to forget you
But, your mother thinks that I'm the best for you
I, try and try to erase you
But, you won't disappear
Feels like every time I turn a corner
You're standing right there
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere
I swear it's hard to think
It's hard to breathe when you're in the air
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
When I think I'm all alone
And my heart's under control
Why is loving you not fair?
You're everywhere
Everywhere
Everywhere I go
But, you're still not here
No you're still not here
Feels like every time I turn the corner
You're standing right there
I swear it's hard to think
It's hard to breathe when you're in the air
Feels like every time I turn the corner
You're standing right there
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere
I swear it's hard to think
It's hard to breathe when you're in the air
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
When I think I'm all alone
And my heart's under control
Why is loving you not fair?
You're everywhere, you're everywhere
The song "Everywhere" by Niall Horan is about a person who is unable to escape the memories and feelings associated with an ex-lover. The song opens with the singer feeling apprehensive and speechless upon seeing their ex for the first time after the breakup. The setting is like an isolated island with no wave of communication. It feels hard to move on from the memories of being together, even when the singer tries to forget and erase their ex from their life. The image is powerful and vivid in describing the difficulty in shaking-off the unwanted haunting presence of the ex-partner from one's mind.
The second verse describes the situation when the singer sees the ex in the face of strangers, making it even more challenging to escape the memories. The inability to forget, while the ex does not have the same issues let the singer feeling trapped, stagnant and weighed down by the heartbreak. The chorus conveys the overarching theme: no matter where the singer goes, the ex is always present, and the memories persist despite trying to move on.
The "Everywhere" song has spoken to those dealing with heartache and struggling to forget a past relationship. Niall Horan employs his distinctive voice to highlight the tricky personal struggles associated with unrequited love. The singer's incredible vocal range, emotion, and feeling that the lyrics evoke make the song even more impactful.
Line by Line Meaning
You walk into the room I go quiet
When you enter the room, I am unable to speak
I catch your eyes and don't blink an eyelid
I make eye contact with you and am completely captivated
Feels like the world locked us on an island
It seems as though we are isolated from the rest of the world
An island without waves
However, the isolation is not volatile, our connection is steady
I try and try to forget you
I make multiple attempts to remove you from my mind
But your mother thinks that I'm the best for you
Even though I struggle to move on, your family sees me as a suitable partner for you
Try and try to erase you
I continue to try and rid my mind of you
But, you won't disappear
However, I cannot seem to shake you from my thoughts and feelings
Feels like every time I turn a corner
Whenever I make a new move
You're standing right there
You are always present in my thoughts
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere
Like a feeling hovering behind me
I swear it's hard to think
It takes great effort to focus on anything else
It's hard to breathe when you're in the air
Your presence is suffocating me
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
Even if I try to escape you, I cannot escape my thoughts and feelings
When I think I'm all alone
Sometimes I believe that I am over you
And my heart's under control
I think that I have control over my feelings
Why is loving you not fair?
Why is it so hard for me to love you?
You're everywhere
You are always present in my thoughts and feelings
The ground beneath my feet's a bit colder
Everything feels colder and harder when you are not around
I see your face in people I don't know
I am reminded of you even in strangers
Feels like the world is twisting in slow-mo
It feels as though the world is turning slower for me
And I'm stuck in one place
I feel like I am not progressing or moving forward
Everywhere
No matter where I go or what I do
Everywhere I go
You are always with me
But, you're still not here
Physical distance does not help me move on from you

You walk into the room, I go quiet
I catch your eyes and don't blink an eyelid
Feels like the world locked us on an island
An island without waves
I try and try to forget you
But your mother thinks I'm the best for you
Try and try to erase you
But you won't disappear
Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere
I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
When I think I'm all alone
And my heart's under control
Why is lovin' you not fair?
You're everywhere
The ground beneath my feet's a bit colder
I see your face in people I don't know
Feels like the world is twistin' in slo-mo

But your mother thinks I'm the best for you
I try and try to erase you
But you won't disappear
Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there

Everywhere I go
But you're still not here
And you're still not here
Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there
I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air
Feels like every time I turn a corner, you're standin' right there
Over my shoulder, you're everywhere (Yeah)
I swear it's hard to think, it's hard to breathe when you're in the air
I try to run, but you're everywhere I go
When I think I'm all alone (All alone)
And my heart's under control (Oh no)
Why is lovin' you not fair?
You're everywhere
You're everywhere
