I Need Your Love
Zedd ft. Ellie Goulding Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I need your time
When everything's wrong
You make it right
I feel so high
I come alive
I need to be free with you tonight
I need your love
I need your love
I take a deep breath every time I pass your door
I know you're there, but I can't see you anymore
And that's the reason you're in the dark
I've been a stranger ever since we fell apart
And I feel so helpless here
Watch, my eyes are filled with fear
Tell me, do you feel the same?
Hold me in your arms again
I need your love
I need your time
When everything's wrong
You make it right
I feel so high
I come alive
I need to be free with you tonight
I need your love
I need your love
Now I'm dreaming, will ever find you now?
I walk in circles, but I'll never figure out
What I mean to you, do I belong?
I try to fight this but I know I'm not that strong
And I feel so helpless here
Watch, my eyes are filled with fear
Tell me, do you feel the same?
Hold me in your arms again
I need your love
I need your time
When everything's wrong
You make it right
I feel so high
I come alive
I need to be free with you tonight
I need your love
I need your love
All the years
All the times
You have never been to blame
And now my eyes are open
And now my heart is closing
And all the tears
All the lies
All the waste
I've been trying to make a change
And now my eyes are open
I need your love
I need your time
When everything's wrong
You make it right
I feel so high
I come alive
I need to be free
The lyrics in Zedd ft. Ellie Goulding's song "I Need Your Love" express the need for emotional and physical closeness. The singer of the song is pining after an elusive lover, who seems to be out of reach, but whom the singer needs to feel whole. The opening verses set the tone for the longing and desire for connection that drives the song. The singer reinforces their need by repeating "I need your love" throughout the song, and emphasizes that the love they're seeking is not just emotional, but physical as well: "I need to be free with you tonight."
As the song progresses, the lyrics describe the singer's sense of desperation and fear of being alone. They feel lost and helpless without their lover, who seems to have disappeared from their life. They express their fear in lines like "Watch my eyes are filled with fear," and "I feel so out to sea." The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and dependence on the other person, who is necessary to make things feel right and whole.
The final verses of the song express a sense of regret and mourning for the loss of the relationship. The singer acknowledges their own inability to change things: "And all the tears, all the lies, all the waste, I've been trying to make it change." The song ends on a melancholic note, with the singer acknowledging that their heart is closing, and that they need the love of the person they've lost in order to feel complete again.

This song was a huge hit when I was 21. I’m 29 now. Enjoy your 20’s.
Let me give you some advice.
1. Don’t worry about finding the right person. When I quit looking and caring. We met.
2. Do NOT get into debt over stupid stuff. (Medical, Education, etc.) is the exception.
I’m talking about credit card debt. If you can’t afford it. You don’t need it. Save up for it.
3. Save your money
4. Don’t listen to people who will bring you down. I did that and I am in the same place for the past several years.
5. Don’t waste your early 20’s on drinking. It’s not worth it because you finally can.
6. Have fun and enjoy life. (YOLO) haven’t heard that in years and I cringed at that. It’s true though . Everyday is a new experience, so enjoy life one day at a time.
Most of this has been repeated several times to people, but it wouldn’t be repeated if it wasn’t true. I hope you have a wonderful decade!

This song brings me back to easier times.
I remember I was 12 when I first heard this song. I was at summer camp, and I was waiting to be picked up by my mom.. there were songs playing in the background, and I was sick and tired of hearing them. They were overplayed on the radio, things like Best Day Of My Life. I was done hearing all these happy songs, because I had no way to consider myself happy.
Then, it played. This song played. Now don't get me wrong, I don't normally resonate with music, but this stood out to me, and it made me happy (from the lyrics, or at least what I could gather from them with my 12 year old brain) to know that people with so much talent are struggling. It made me feel like I wasn't alone (I was a pretty narcissistic kid, I thought I was too good for everyone else lol).
I don't know if any of you have ever had the feeling of something making you so truly happy, only to have it just taken away from you, but that's what happened to me. Of course, the song had to end, like every other song does. Over the years, I lost the song more and more. I couldn't find it, and I missed it. I wanted that feeling of nostalgia we all long for; the feeling that makes you happy.
It's taken 6 years, but I found it again. I really do miss those times, but like everything that's good, of course there's a downside to it as well. I was a kid who couldn't understand social tendencies. I was a kid who never joined in on anything. It was tough, but I miss it.
Note that while I said they were easier times, they weren't better times. I found my way out of whatever was going on at that point, and now I'm doing well for myself, I'd say. I just want anyone who sees this to know; if you're struggling with anything, there's help, and it really does get better. It may take you a lot less time than I did. It may take you a month for you to find someone you really love that can help you to treat this, but it might also take you as long as I did to find any solution.
All that matters is that people are here for you, and, well, I'm here, even if I have no idea who you are. I want you all to know that I don't care what type of person you are, or what's in your past. I care that you get better, and I support anything you may need to use to help you get there, whether it be medicine or your own willpower.
There is help.
Much love, Brendan <3
