U R
The Madden Brothers Lyrics

Words scribbled down on paper
The song's lyrics were written down as raw thoughts on paper

But it's not that simple
The feelings expressed in the lyrics are complex and difficult to express

It's hard to say just how I feel
The songwriter struggles to fully articulate their emotions

A melody playing in my head
The songwriter has a tune stuck in their head

Of all the things I wished I'd said
The songwriter regrets not expressing certain feelings or thoughts

Wished I had said
The songwriter expresses regret for not communicating their feelings

Oh, all the nights are long
The songwriter is experiencing a prolonged period of emotional distress

I left you laying in that bed
The songwriter left someone they care about feeling hurt or alone

Doubts in your head
The person left behind is questioning the relationship and their own self-worth

Well, I need you to know
The songwriter feels compelled to communicate their feelings to someone

Then all alone in this airplane
The songwriter is reflecting on their thoughts and feelings during a period of solitude

Was not in vain, oh
The songwriter is finding meaning in their experience of loneliness

You are in every lyric
The person the songwriter cares about is a central theme in their songwriting

You are in every chord
The person the songwriter cares about is a central theme in their musical composition

You're the only reason
The person the songwriter cares about is the sole inspiration behind their music

The one I'm singing for
The songwriter has a specific person in mind when they perform or write music

You are my only anthem
The person the songwriter cares about is the only subject of their songs, as they are their biggest fan and supporter

You are the greatest score
The person the songwriter cares about is their highest achievement, their best work so far

You're my inspiration
The person the songwriter cares about motivates and inspires them to create music

I'd give anything
The songwriter is willing to sacrifice anything to be with the person they care about

To see the things I've missed (I've missed)
The songwriter regrets missing important moments in their loved one's life

Her first words, first steps, first love
The songwriter wished they were able to witness important milestones in the life of the person they care about

And her first kiss
The songwriter regrets missing a particularly significant moment in the life of the person they care about

And that melody, still playing in my head
The songwriter is still unable to shake the tune that has been stuck in their head

It hurts so bad sometimes
The songwriter is still feeling the emotional pain from their past experiences

But that's the way it is
The songwriter acknowledges that their experiences are a part of life and they accept the pain that comes with them

Oh, and I wanna let you know
The songwriter feels compelled to communicate their feelings directly to the person they care about

I am an endless spring
The songwriter feels as though they will always have an abundance of material to create music about

You gotta know I'll flow forever
The songwriter's creative output will never cease as long as their inspiration is present

And I will always sing
The songwriter will always communicate their feelings through songwriting

As long as we can stay together
The songwriter hopes to remain with the person they care about in order to maintain their source of inspiration

You are, you are
The person the songwriter cares about is significant and important

Oh, you are, you are
The person the songwriter cares about holds a special place in their heart

The one I'm singing for
The person the songwriter cares about is the sole inspiration behind their music
