It's Me
Out Of Eden Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I stand at the door of your heart just knockin'
Won't you let me in I can take away the sin that lies within
I know what your wanting to say
But can only think, can only pray that someone hears

You hide all your secrets in that private place
If you only knew that you mind is open to my eye
I know the truth, I know what you need to fill the void in you
If you only knew that it is me

[Chorus]
It's me, that you are searchin' for
It's me, that you are thinkin' of
It's me, that can't live without
It's me, It's me

Here I am, but still you try everything
To give you only what I can
Always hoping that someone'll understand, oh please
It all awaits you if you just taste and see
I am what you need

[Chorus]

What did I do to make you turn so very far away
What's to lose when you have it all to gain
I know you, and what you are and what you want to be
If you only knew it's all in me

[Chorus]

It is me, that you're searchin' for
Nobody else can no one can give you more




It is me, that you're thinkin' of
I can show you love, real love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Out of Eden's song "It's Me" speak to the yearning of the human heart for redemption and love. The song opens with a plea for admittance into the heart of the listener: "Here I stand at the door of your heart just knockin', won't you let me in?" The singer is offering a solution to the sin that lies within the listener, but the listener must be willing to hear and accept the offered help.


The song then goes on to emphasize the point that there is nothing hidden from the singer's view. The listener must realize that the secrets they hide away in a private place are open to the singer's eye. The truth is known by the singer and the void that the listener is trying to fill can only be met by accepting the help that is offered.


The final verse is a call to action, pleading with the listener to take a chance and taste the offered solution. The singer knows what the listener needs to be fulfilled, the only thing that needs to happen is for the listener to understand that it is the singer who can provide what is necessary. The repeated chorus reinforces the idea that it is the singer who the listener is searching for, thinking of, and in desperate need of. Though there may be other things that the listener tries to fill the void with, they cannot compare to the love and redemption that is offered by the singer.
