Tiësto Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Give me one more chance, give me one more dance
I'm feeling blue without you
Tell me who am I to hold you down
Just feeling blue without you
Give me one more chance, give me one more dance
I'm feeling blue without you
I dream that you won't forget me
That's all I really ask of ya
I'd love to talk if you'd let me
I'll take you back to the start with me
I keep on dreaming, I don't know why
I can't seem to let it go
But I keep on tripping on what we had
It's hard not to let you know
I'm feeling blue without you
Give me one more chance, give me one more dance
I'm feeling blue without you
Tell me who am I to hold you down
I'm feeling blue without you
Don't know what I should do
Feeling so blue without you
We built our love on foundations
We built a house on the hill, yeah
Our little rock of salvation
Oh, my love's there still
'Cause I keep on dreaming, I don't know why
I can't seem to let it go
But I keep on tripping on what we had
It's hard not to let you know
I'm feeling blue without you
Give me one more chance, give me one more dance
I'm feeling blue without you
Tell me who am I to hold you down
I'm feeling blue, yeah
Oh, give me one more chance, give me one more dance
I'm blue without you
Tell me who am I to hold you down
Just feeling blue without you
The lyrics of Tiësto's "The Blues" present a poignant expression of heartache and desire. The chorus repeats the phrase "I'm feeling blue without you" as a confession of the depth of the singer's emotions. He asks for one more chance and one more dance, suggesting that he believes that he can reignite the love that he and his partner shared in the past. Despite this hope, he admits that he is uncertain about his place in his lover's life, asking "tell me who am I to hold you down?" The singer is willing to start over and take his partner back to the beginning, hoping that they can rebuild their love from the foundation upon which they had built their relationship.
The verses of the song add more context to the singer's feelings. He dreams that his partner will not forget him, and he desires to talk to her. He remembers the moments that they shared together, and he admits that he cannot let go of them despite the pain they now cause him. He recognizes that their love may have been a rock of salvation, but he still feels lost without his partner. The song captures the essence of heartbreak and the desperate desire to reconcile a lost love.
