Only You
Yaz Lyrics

The lyrics of Yaz's song Only You convey a sense of longing, heartbreak, and the overwhelming desire to reconnect with someone special. It portrays the aching feeling of separation and the unyielding need to be with someone who fills the void in one's heart. The first line "Looking from a window above, it's like a story of love" suggests that the singer is observing their situation externally, like an outsider looking in, and reflecting on the love story that they once had. It implies that they are in a state of emotional detachment, but still crave their loved one's presence.

The lyrics also express the singer's yearning for the lover's attention and to be close to them. "Came back only yesterday, I'm moving further away, Want you near me" implies that the singer is struggling with their new reality without their love interest, but despite this, they are moving on. The chorus "All I needed was the love you gave, All I needed for another day, And all I ever knew, Only you" reinforces the idea that their love interest was the only person who gave them what they needed, and they are struggling to find another source.

The lyrics also convey a sense of confusion regarding the singer's emotions. "Sometimes when I think of her name when it's only a game" suggests that the singer is confused between their love for their previous partner and their current state of mind. Furthermore, the line "This is going to take a long time and I wonder what's mine, Can't take no more" conveys a sense of defeat and confusion at not knowing what the future holds. Finally, the last line "Wonder if you'll understand it's just the touch of your hand Behind a closed door" portrays the longing for the physical touch of their love that would save them from their emotional turmoil.
