Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What the hell happened with you and me?
'Cause, oh, ain't no lovin' no more
You ain't as cool as you used to be
Closer to the mirror than you are to me
I said, oh, had to show you that door
Someday I hope we can fix it, 'cause I ain't too proud to trySay hi to your friends, and if they ever ask you why
We don't talk
Know you gotta grow up
Ain't you sick of being immature?
Talkin' loud 'cause you insecure
You always turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, c'mon
Why you always gotta show off?
You're so offended, I already know
But when you hear this on the radio
You're gonna turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
'Cause it's all about you-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
It's all about you-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now you said some stuff that you can't take back
How did you think that I would react?
'Cause you're, you must be out of your mind, no
How did we go straight from love to hate?
Now it's so deep that we can't be mates
I said, oh, we should give it some time
Someday I hope we can fix it, 'cause I ain't too proud to try
Say hi to your friends, and if they ever ask you why
We don't talk
Know you gotta grow up
Ain't you sick of being immature?
Talkin' loud 'cause you insecure
You always turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, c'mon
Why you always gotta show off?

Anytime you start it
You're growing up a little, darlin'

The lyrics of Olly Murs's "Up" describe a relationship that is going through some turmoil, but both parties are determined to make things work. The first half of the song is written from the perspective of the singer who drew a broken heart on their lover's window pane and is now waiting for a response. They understand that the hurt won't go away quickly but want to hope that their love isn't over. The second half is sung from the viewpoint of the partner as they draw a question mark on a piece of paper and express their desire to turn back time to when things were better. The chorus then kicks in, describing the importance of holding onto emotions even when things get tough and promising that the love will triumph in the end.
The song's lyrics are relatable and inspire hope in relationships that have seen better days. The song reminds listeners that even when in difficult times, it's essential to hold on to love, the one thing that makes everything worth it. The song captures the feeling of uncertainty and nervousness when in the midst of a rocky relationship, and it provides comfort by acknowledging that it's okay to feel that way.

TRADUÇAO: <3 <3 <3
Eu desenhei um coração partido
Bem no parapeito de sua janela
Esperei por sua resposta
Aqui na chuva forte
Só respire contra o vidro
Me dê algum tipo de sinal
Eu sei que a dor não vai passar, é
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar
Oh, você tem que se apegar
Se apegar ao que sente
Este sentimento é a melhor coisa
Realmente, a melhor coisa
Eu vou apostar em nós
Eu sei que nosso amor está seguindo
Na mesma direção
Para cima
Você é um ponto de interrogação
Será que sabe o que eu quero
Eu quero virar a bússola, é
Para onde costumava apontar
Então, vamos construir uma ponte
Do seu lado para o meu
Serei eu a atravessar
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Só me diga que não é o fim da linha
Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar
Oh, você tem que se apegar
Se apegar ao que sente
Este sentimento é a melhor coisa
Realmente, a melhor coisa
Eu vou apostar em nós
Eu sei que nosso amor está seguindo
Na mesma direção
Para cima
Garota, eu sei que podemos escalar
Para onde costumávamos ficar
Sinto aqui, em meu coração
E o coloco em suas mãos
Bom, eu espero e oro
Que você entenderá
Se entender, tudo o que precisa dizer é
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Estou esperando por você
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah
Eu nunca quis partir seu coração
Agora, não vou deixar este avião cair
Eu nunca quis te fazer chorar
Vou fazer tudo o que puder para fazer isso voar
