NEED YOU
dj ink and dylan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I was younger I used to need fancy things
Like fast cars, branded clothes and diamond rings
But now I know none of this means anything
Cause all I need, is you
The harder I tried, the more I saw darkness
I made some bad choices and I got into a mess
Then you came out of nowhere and showed me happiness
Now all I need, is you

You'll always be my angel in disguise
Your smile makes the stars shine in the sky
You make me see colour when the world is grey
So all I need, is you
Everyday I spend with you is my new favourite day
I wouldn't want to spend my life any other way
And, if I only had one last thing that I could say
It's all I need, is you
You'll always be my angel in disguise
Your smile makes the stars shine in the sky
You make me see colour when the world is grey

So all I need, is you
So all I need, is you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DJ Ink and Dylan's song "Need You" express a shift in perspective of what the singer used to think they needed in life versus what they realize they truly need now. The singer used to feel that fancy and expensive things like fast cars, branded clothes, and diamond rings were essential to their happiness. However, as they grew older, they came to understand that these things hold no true value and that all they actually need is their partner. The singer talks about making bad choices that led them into a dark place, but their partner came into their life and brought them happiness. Now, the singer couldn't imagine their life without their significant other and finishes the song by stating that if they had one last thing to say, it would be that all they need is them.

The lyrics in this song serve as a beautiful reminder of what's truly important in life. It's easy to get caught up in material possessions and want more and more, but at the end of the day, the things that bring us true happiness are often the people we surround ourselves with. The singer's journey from wanting "fancy things" to realizing that their partner is all they need is relatable and shows the power of love and human connection.

Line by Line Meaning

When I was younger I used to need fancy things
In my youth, I used to lust after lavish and expensive objects

Like fast cars, branded clothes and diamond rings
My fancy desires included things such as speedy automobiles, designer clothing and glamorous diamonds

But now I know none of this means anything
However, my perspective has changed, and I understand that materialistic possessions hold no true value

Cause all I need, is you
All I truly require for happiness is your company and love

The harder I tried, the more I saw darkness
Despite my efforts to find joy through superficial means, I only encountered gloom and negativity

I made some bad choices and I got into a mess
My misguided actions landed me in trouble and confusion

Then you came out of nowhere and showed me happiness
But you unexpectedly entered my life and introduced me to true joy and contentment

Now all I need, is you
Since meeting you, I no longer crave anything else - I am completely satisfied with your presence in my life

You'll always be my angel in disguise
To me, you will forever be a heavenly being in human form

Your smile makes the stars shine in the sky
The radiance of your smile can illuminate even the darkest night, just like the starry sky

You make me see colour when the world is grey
When I'm feeling down and the world seems bleak, your influence brings colour and vibrancy to my life

Everyday I spend with you is my new favourite day
I cherish each moment spent beside you, and find that every new day with you becomes my most treasured memory

I wouldn't want to spend my life any other way
Being with you has made my life complete - I wouldn't trade it for anything else

And, if I only had one last thing that I could say
If I could only express one final sentiment

It's all I need, is you
It would be that I am content and fulfilled, simply because of your presence in my life

So all I need, is you
Therefore, I unequivocally state that I require nothing and no one else, as I have you - the one thing that brings true happiness and meaning to my life
