Everything I Need
Rupert Gregson-Williams Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I couldn't live without you
But everyday I wake up still alive
Always thinking 'bout you
'Til I realized you never cross my mind

And I won't get back all the days
But my heart can rearrange
I can never hate you
You help me find myself and I

Who will keep me together
If I can't hold on myself
I found someone who loves me better
Guess I never needed your help

'Cause it's too late tonight
For my tears to have the last line
I'm finally seein' it clearer
'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight

'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight
'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight

I guess I always wanted
Somebody to want me all the time
But the reality I'm facin'
Is the only love I really need is mine

And I won't get back all the days
But my heart can rearrange
I can never hate you
You help me find myself and I

Who will keep me together
If I can't hold on myself
I found someone who loves me better
Guess I never needed your help

'Cause it's too late tonight
For my tears to have the last line
I'm finally seein' it clearer
'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight

Whoa-oh-oh-whoa
'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight
Whoa-oh-oh-whoa
'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight

The only one I need tonight





'Cause I'm the only one I need tonight

Overall Meaning

In Rupert Gregson-Williams's song Everything I Need, the lyrics tell the story of someone who has gone through a painful breakup but has come to realize that they no longer need their ex-partner to move forward. The singer acknowledges the fact that they once couldn't live without their partner, but has now come to accept that they are stronger on their own. The line "But everyday I wake up still alive" highlights a sense of gratitude for being able to wake up and face the day, even though they are no longer with their former partner.


Throughout the song, the singer realizes that they don't need someone else to keep them together. They found someone who loves them better, and most importantly, they have found love within themselves. The lyric "The only love I really need is mine" emphasizes the idea that self-love is essential, and one must be able to depend on themselves.


The song shows the journey of self-discovery, self-love, and acceptance after a broken relationship. It's a reminder that "it's never too late to find yourself" and that sometimes in the end, the only person you need is yourself.

lyrics :
Born on the wrong side of the ocean
With all the tides against you
You never thought you'd be much good for anyone
But that's so far from the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
I know there's pain in your heart
And you're covered in scars
Wish you could see what I do

[Chorus]
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need

[Verse 2]
You can say I'm wrong
You can turn your back against me
But I am here to stay
(I am here to stay)
Like the sea
She keeps kissing the shoreline
No matter how many times he pushes her away

[Chorus]
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me

[Bridge]
And everything happens for a reason
It's all a blessing in disguise
I used to question who I was
Well now I see
The answer is in your eyes

[Chorus]
'Cause baby, everything you are
Is everything I need
You're everything to me
Baby, every single part
Is who you're meant to be
'Cause you were meant for me
And you're everything I need
