~VERSE 1~
Your as good as you were,
But I guess that dont aply to you.
You told me so many things,
But none of them were true (You said)
Pretending not to see the truth,
I was living blind.
Now I see that you were just Messing with my mind. (You said)

~CHORUS~
You told me that even though we argue,
You told me, "i love you"
You said, "i adore you". (I adore you)
You told me that you'd never leave.
You said you'd always be,
Around here baby.

You told me that you don't want no drama.
I gave you my arm and you took me home to meet my mama. (You said)
You told me that you'd never leave,
That you'd always be,
Around here baby. (You said)

~VERSE 2~
I'm sittin' here confused.
You didn't do what you said you'd do,
I gave my heart to you. (You said)
You said I was the only one you gave yourself to,
I trusted that and I believed in you. (You said)
You said you'd love me unconditionaly,
But why did you lie? (You said)
I don't deserve to feel this hurt inside,
Ohh why? (Why), Why? (Why), Why!?

~CHORUS~
You told me that even though we argue,
You told me "i love you",
You said "i adore you".
You told me that you'd never leave, (You'd never leave)


That you'd always be,
Around here baby. (Around here bay-bay-baby)

You told me that you don't want no drama.
I gave you my arm and you took me home to meet your mama. (You said)
You told me that you'd never ever leave,
that you'd always be,
around here baby.

~BRIDGE~
Ohh Ohhh you said, (Say it right) you said.
I can't let go of you, you, you, you, you. (You said, You said)
I don't know why. (You said, You said)
God made me love you. (You said, You said)

~CHORUS~
You told me that even though we argue,
You told me, "i love you"
You said, "i adore you" (You said...!)
You told me that you'd never leave,
That you'd always be, (You'd always be)
Around here baby. (Around here baby, you said)

You told me that you dont want no dramas. (Said you dont want no drama)
I gave you my arm and you took me home to meet your mama. (I met your mama yeah yeah)
You told me that you'd never leave,(you said you'd never leave)
You said you'd always be, (Said you'd always be)
Around here baby.

You, you, you, you said.
You said.
You, You said.
You, You, You.
You said you'd love me baby,
You said you'd unconditionaly.
But why did you lie ohhh. (You said)





You said.

Overall Meaning

The song "You Said" by Rhea is a heart-wrenching tale of betrayal and broken promises. The opening lines hint at the singer's disappointment and frustration at the person they are addressing. The person is "as good as they were", but this isn't enough because none of the things they said were true. The singer had been blind to the truth and their vulnerability had been exploited. The chorus reinforces the fact that the singer had been promised love, adoration, and longevity, yet the reality is vastly different. There had been arguments, and the person had not only left but had also caused drama, leading to the singer's incredulity and confusion.


The second verse shows the extent of the singer's despair as they had devoted themselves to the person who had betrayed them. They had trusted and believed in the promises, but their heart had been broken. The person had lied to them, and the consequences were too painful to bear. The bridge shows the singer's internal struggle as they cannot let go of the person despite the hurt they caused. They do not know why they still love them and wonder if it is God's will. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the fact that the promises were broken, leaving only hurt and disappointment in its wake.

God loves you so much...in a way that NO man can, the Lord will make whole those areas that are hurting and lonely. It's so easy for people to say "I love you" but most of the time they don't even really KNOW what real love is. john 3:16
