Wanted
Trevor Guthrie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you want to go down, I'm already here on the floor
If you want me around, I can make my way through the door

'Cause all of your sunlight and all of your pain
Is wanted, is wanted, is wanted

Heaven, won't you let me in to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah
Women, can I get these words to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah
You're wanted, you're wanted
You're wanted, you're wanted, you're wanted

If you want to stay high up here, I'm not missing a thing
It's just you and I naked in the pouring rain

'Cause all of your sunlight and all of your pain
Is wanted, is wanted, is wanted

Heaven, won't you let me in to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah
Women, can I get these words to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah
You're wanted, you're wanted
You're wanted, you're wanted

Anyway you wanna feel, anywhere your dove flies
Anywhere you wanna go, my love is worldwide
Anyway you wanna be, anywhere your heart lies
Anyway you wanna go, my love is worldwide

(Make your soul sing a) You're wanted, you're wanted
(Make your soul sing a) You're wanted, you're wanted
Make your soul sing a hallelujah
Make your soul sing a hallelujah

Heaven, won't you let me in to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah
Women, can I get these words to ya? Make your soul sing a hallelujah

Anyway you wanna feel, anywhere your dove flies
Anywhere you wanna go, my love is worldwide




Anyway you wanna be, anywhere your heart lies
Anyway you wanna go, my love is worldwide

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Trevor Guthrie's song "Wanted" express a desire for connection and a willingness to accept someone for who they are, both in their moments of joy and in their moments of pain. The song's chorus, "all of your sunlight and all of your pain is wanted," suggests that the singer wants to be a part of the full range of the listener's emotional experience. The opening lines of the song, "If you want to go down, I'm already here on the floor / If you want me around, I can make my way through the door," indicate that the singer is ready and willing to meet the listener wherever they are in their life, without judgement or hesitation.


The song's bridge, which repeats the message "you're wanted" over and over, is particularly powerful in its simplicity. The singer seems to be saying that all the listener needs to know is that they are wanted, loved, and accepted, no matter what. The repeated phrase "make your soul sing a hallelujah" further reinforces this message of celebration and acceptance. Throughout the song, the singer's message is one of unconditional love and a desire to connect with the listener on a deep, emotional level.
