I'll be there for you
T.O.P Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine
Baby baby
I know what you want from you
Can you see me?
And I can mean so much to you
You're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
It'll take more than just a lifetime to understand
Where we are
So patience is nothing
'Cause I'll do anything for you
I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine
Baby tell me
Why must there be pain with you
Your precious emotions
When will they be free from you
See you're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
And everything else I need confuses me so much
So
Baby don't hate me
'Cause I've seen better things in you
I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine
See you're like the moon, you're like the stars,
You're like the sun
And I can bet that you matter but I'm having too much fun
So
Maybe baby, love will save me
And I can keep your hate from you
I'll be waiting for you
Even if it takes you all of your life
I'll be waiting for you
'Til you know within yourself that you are so divine
[Chorus x2]

[Verse 1: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett]
I think of you when the wind blows
Every night, I've been countin' the days
I see your face almost everywhere
'Cause I just wanna be there when you wake
Sure, maybe Salt Lake is not close
Denver always seems so far away
But I'm still breathin' you in the air (But I hope you know that we're still close)
[Chorus: Olivia Rodrigo, Joshua Bassett & Both]
Because
The best part is knowin' there's somethin' in my dreams that always makes me smile, it's you (Even when you and I are worlds apart, I hold you in my heart)
The best part is knowin' there's someone in my life that makes it all worthwhile (Even when I'm a thousand miles away, I wish that I could stay with you)
It's you
[Verse 2: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett]
When I don't know what to do (I shouldn't fear)
Know I'm never givin' up, never givin' up on you, baby ('Cause I'm never givin' up, never givin' up on us, baby)
I wish you were here (There's no need to be blue)
[Chorus: Olivia Rodrigo, Joshua Bassett & Both]
Because
The best part is knowin' there's somethin' in my dreams that always makes me smile, it's you (Even when you and I are worlds apart, I hold you in my heart)
The best part is knowin' there's someone in my life that makes it all worthwhile (Even when I'm a thousand miles away, I wish that I could stay with you)
It's you
