Who you are

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you,
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you,
I need you the most

I gave you the key when the door wasn't open
Just admit it
See, I gave you faith, turned your doubt into hoping, can’t deny it
Now I'm all alone and my joys turned to moping
Tell me here, where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now? (where are you now?)
Where are you now that I need ya?
Couldn't find you anywhere
When you broke down I didn't leave ya
I was by your side
So where are you now that I need ya?

Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?

I gave you attention when nobody else was payin', hm
I gave you the shirt off my back whatchu sayin'
To keep you warm
I showed you the game everybody else was playin', that's for sure
And I was on my knees when nobody else was prayin', oh Lord

Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, (Where are you now that I need ya?)
I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you,
I need you the most

Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?
Where are you now that I need ya?

I need you the most




I need you the most
I need you the most

Overall Meaning

In "Where R U Now," the singer's tone moves from desperation to betrayal. The lyrics repeatedly emphasize the need for someone, they require the presence of an absent person. The singer gave away their heart to this person, held their hand during difficult times, and focused their attention on them when nobody else was. They trusted this person and made sacrifices for them, but now they are lost and alone without them. The lyrics convey a sense of anxiety and desire for the person to return, questioning where they are at a moment when they are so desperately needed.


However, as the song progresses, the tone changes. The allusion to prayer and the mention of being on one's knees implies a religious imagery, which could suggest that the singer believed the relationship to be sacred in some way. The betrayal and unanswered calls for help betray the trust between the pair, leaving the singer in a state of need and pondering where the lost loved one is. The chorus repeats its urgent inquiry, Where are you now that I need ya? amidst reverberating synths and heavy bass, a desperate plea for the answer that might never come.
