Not Alone
Red Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Slowly fading away
You're lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold
Looking for a distant light
Someone who could save a life
You're living in fear that no one will hear your cries
Can you save me now
I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

Your heart is full of broken dreams
Just a fading memory
And everything's gone but the pain carries on
Lost in the rain again
When will it ever end
The arms of relief seem so out of reach
But I, I am here

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

And I'll be your hope when you feel like its over
And I will pick you up when your whole world shatters
And when you're finally in my arms
Look up and see love has a face

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause you're not, you're not alone

And I will be your hope
And I will pick you up
And I will be your hope
And I will be your hope

Slow fading away




Your lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold

Dobranoc ...
Powoli zanikasz
Jesteś zgubiony i bardzo się boisz
Gdzie jest nadzieja w tak zimnym świecie?
Szukasz odległego światła
Kogoś, kto mógłby ocalić życie
Żyjesz w strachu, że nikt nie usłyszy twego wołania:
Czy możesz mnie teraz uratować?

Jestem z tobą
Przeniosę Cię przez to wszystko
Nie zostawię Cię, złapię Cię,
Kiedy zechcesz odpuścić
Ponieważ nie jesteś, nie jesteś sam

Twoje serce jest pełne niespełnionych marzeń
Tylko znikające wspomnienie
I wszystko odeszło, ale ból nadal się trzyma
Znów zgubiony w deszczu
Kiedy to w końcu się skończy?
Ramiona ulgi wydają się być poza zasięgiem
Ale Ja, ale Ja tu jestem

Jestem z tobą
Przeniosę Cię przez to wszystko
Nie zostawię Cię, złapię Cię,
Kiedy zechcesz odpuścić
Ponieważ nie jesteś, nie jesteś sam

I będę twoją nadzieją, 
Kiedy poczujesz, że to koniec
I podniosę cię 
Kiedy cały twój świat się rozpadnie
I kiedy wreszcie będziesz w moich ramionach
Spójrz w górę i zobacz, że miłość ma twarz

Jestem z tobą
Przeniosę Cię przez to wszystko
Nie zostawię Cię, złapię Cię,
Kiedy zechcesz odpuścić
Ponieważ nie jesteś, nie jesteś sam

I będę twoją nadzieją
(Nie jesteś sam)
I podniosę cię
I będę twoją nadzieją
I będę twoją nadzieją

Powoli umierasz
Jesteś zgubiony i bardzo się boisz
Gdzie jest nadzieja w tym zimnym świecie?

Slowly fading away
You're lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold
Looking for a distant light
Someone who could save a life
You're living in fear that no one will hear your cries
Can you save me now

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

Your heart is full of broken dreams
Just a fading memory
And everything's gone but the pain carries on
Lost in the rain again
When will it ever end
The arms of relief seem so out of reach
But I, I am here

I am with you
I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause your not, your not alone

And I'll be your hope when you feel like its over
And I will pick you up when your whole world shatters
And when you're finally in my arms
Look up and see love has a face
I am with you

I will carry you through it all
I won't leave you I will catch you
When you feel like letting go
Cause you're not, you're not alone

And I will be your hope
And I will pick you up
And I will be your hope
And I will be your hope
Slow fading away
Your lost and so afraid
Where is the hope in a world so cold
