Just Like You
miley cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah, yeah

So what you see
Is only half the story
There's another side of me
I'm a girl you know but I'm someone else too
If you only knew
It's a crazy life but I'm alright

I've got everything I've always wanted
I'm livin' the dream
So yeah everything I've always wanted
Is it always what it seems?
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all, I'm just like you

Yeah, yeah

Don't wanna be treated differently
I wanna keep it all inside
Half the time
I got my name in lights
The other half I'm by your side

It's a crazy life
But I'm just fine

I got everything I've always wanted
Living the dream
So yeah
Everything I've always wanted

Is it always what it seems?
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you

Cant you see I'm just an ordinary girl
Livin' in an extraordinary world
Tryin' to live
Tryin' to learn
Tryin' to just be
Who I am
(Who I am)

I got everything I've always wanted
Livin' the dream
So yeah
Everything I've always wanted
Is it always what it seems?
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true
But underneath it all
I'm just like you

Everything I've always wanted
Livin' the dream
So yeah
Everything I've always wanted (Always wanted)
Is it always what it seems
I'm a lucky girl
Whose dreams came true




But underneath it all
I'm just like you

Overall Meaning

The song "Just Like You" by Miley Cyrus is an introspective piece that explores her life in the public eye, as well as who she is as a person. In the chorus, she sings about how she has everything she's always wanted and is living the dream, but questions if everything is always what it seems. She acknowledges that she's lucky to have her dreams come true, but underneath it all, she's just like everyone else. Behind the glitz and glamour, she's human and experiences the same emotions as everyone else.


In the verses, Miley reveals that there's another side to her that people don't always see, one that she keeps to herself. She admits that her life is crazy but that she's okay, and she doesn't want to be treated differently because of her fame. Miley also highlights the dichotomy of her life, where she can be in the spotlight one moment and by someone's side the next.


Overall, "Just Like You" is a message of relatability and finding common ground with others. Miley recognizes that even though she's a celebrity, she's still just an ordinary girl living in an extraordinary world, trying to learn and be who she is.
