The Valerie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where my heart misbehaves
My soul cries out for you
This test against time, against all reason or rhyme
The only thing that makes sense is you
Take me home, please take me home
I belong with you
You're my everything, my only one is You
Deserted by our lives
Our debts and our kind
My only hope is you
For things may never change
But someday we'll break those graves
And live again our youth
Take me home, please take me home
I belong with you
Take me home, please take me home
You're my everything, my only one is You
All my feelings
All my thinking
Revolve around you
May be breathing
Yet I'm choking
Please take me home to you
Someone told me
It's not the place Val
It's what the person means to you
Now I realize all I want now
Is my home I find in you
Take me home now
Take me home now
Take me home to you
Take me home now
Take me home now
My home I find in you
The lyrics to The Valerie's song "Valerie" express a deep longing for a connection with someone who brings meaning and purpose to the singer's life. The song begins by acknowledging a pain that the singer has never experienced before, where their heart is unruly and their soul is crying out for this person. Despite the challenges and the lack of logic, this individual is the only thing that makes sense to them. The repeated plea to be taken home signifies a desire for a sense of belonging and completeness that can only be found in the presence of this person. The lyrics further convey a feeling of being abandoned and overwhelmed by the burdens of life, but the hope lies in this person, as they hold the key to breaking free from the constraints and rediscovering the joy and energy of youth. The verses emphasize the all-encompassing nature of the feelings and thoughts revolving around this person, as well as the suffocating feeling of needing to be close to them in order to truly breathe and find release. The song culminates in the realization that it's not about a physical place, but rather the depth of the connection and the sense of "home" that is found in this person.

Never felt this kind of pain
I have never experienced pain like this before
Where my heart misbehaves
My heart is not acting in the way it should
My soul cries out for you
I long for you with all my soul
This test against time, against all reason or rhyme
We are being put to the ultimate test, defying logic and order
The only thing that makes sense is you
You are the only thing that gives me clarity and purpose
Take me home, please take me home
Bring me back to where I truly belong
I belong with you
My place is by your side
You're my everything, my only one is You
You are my entire world, my one and only
Deserted by our lives
Our lives have abandoned us
Our debts and our kind
We are burdened by our obligations and the nature of our existence
My only hope is you
You are my sole source of hope
For things may never change
It is possible that things will never improve
But someday we'll break those graves
However, one day we will defy our limitations
And live again our youth
And reclaim our lost youth
All my feelings
Every emotion I have
All my thinking
All my thoughts
Revolve around you
Center around you
May be breathing
I may be alive
Yet I'm choking
But I feel suffocated
Please take me home to you
Please bring me back to you
Someone told me
I was told by someone
It's not the place Val
The location doesn't matter, Val
It's what the person means to you
It is what the person represents to you
Now I realize all I want now
Now I understand that all I desire
Is my home I find in you
Is the comfort and love I find in you
Take me home now
Bring me back home now
My home I find in you
I find my home in you

My girlfriend passed away 7 months tomorrow. This was one her favorite songs. I have red hair. She used to run her fingers through my hair when she sang, "I miss your ginger hair and the way you like to dress." She was an amazing woman
