Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I felt times were really low
You told me why I felt so cold
When truthfully I didn’t know
But now I know you got me
And you’ll never leave my side
I know that you want me
And you’ll lift me up so highAnd I know
Sometimes in life things might not go right
And if so
Things end up bad I’ll walk to the light
Because i know you’ll be there
And I know you’ll always care
You never leave me alone
You always call me your own
The feeling will never get old
No no yea yeah
Your loves ocean is on my coast
I know my life made it seem
Like I don’t care
I know it feels like this feeling is so rare
I know I know and I know
That sometimes this healing is slow
But there’s something that you should know, you should know, you should know,
You’re asking why you’re feeling low
So confused & you don’t know
Let me tell that your not alone
Not alone not alone
But now I know you got me
And you’ll never leave my side
I know that you want me
And you’ll lift me up so high
And I knowSometimes in life things might not go right
And if so
Things end up bad I’ll walk to the light
Because i know you’ll be there
And I know you’ll always care
You never leave me alone
You always call me your own
You said heaven shall pass me
You said to believe in you
But if I’m really honest
Need you to pull me through
Cause even with the strength you gave me
I used it all on the wrong things
Lord I need you right now
Lord I need you right now yea
And I know you’ll never leave my side no no
But I need you to pull me to the finish line
But now I know you got me
And you’ll never leave my side
I know that you want me
And you’ll lift me up so high
And I know
Sometimes in life things might not go right
And if so
Things end up bad I’ll walk to the light
Because i know you’ll be there
And I know you’ll always care
You never leave me alone
You always call me your own

A plea for help from a higher power
And I know you’ll never leave my side no no
A reaffirmation of faith that support will be constant
But I need you to pull me to the finish line
A request for help to reach a goal
