It's You
Embracing Life's Symphony: 'It's You' by I Hate Kate Unveiled
Lyrics
Go
Encouragement to move forward
Let it go
Let go of the past and move on for the sake of someone special
Let it go
-Put it all behind
-For you
-Show
Expressing the need to reveal one's true self
Let it show
Show fearlessness and vulnerability for the person you care about
Let it show
-That you're not afraid of this
-For you
-And there's only one person I know
Emphasizing that the person addressed is unique and precious
That is worth all the time in the world
-It's you
-Life
Life is short, and it is dedicated to the person being sung about
This short life
-This sweet life
-Is all I've got
-I've got for you
-And there's only one person I know
Reiteration of the person's worth in terms of time
That is worth all the time in the world
-It's you
-It's you
Continued emphasis on the unique importance of the person
It's you that makes me feel it
-You that makes me feel so alive
-So alive
-It's you
-It's you
-Born
Highlighting the hope that the person is the one they were born for
We were born
-We were born in this world of hope
-I hope it's you
-And there's only one person I know
Reiteration of the person's worth in terms of time and significance
That is worth all the time in the world
-It's you
-It's you
Repeated emphasis on the person's role in making the singer feel alive
It's you that makes me feel it
-You that makes me feel so alive
-So alive
-It's you
-It's you
-It's you that makes me feel it
-You that makes me feel so alive
-So alive
-Don't call off all your feelings
Caution against suppressing emotions or memories
And sew off all your clothes
-To forget me
-To forget me
-All dried up in this weather
Expressing a sense of being trapped or constrained, seeking freedom
Been tied up since forever
-So let me
-Just let me
-It's you
Reiteration of the person's impact on the singer's sense of vitality
It's you
-It's you that makes me feel it
-You that makes me feel so alive
-So alive
-It's you
Continued emphasis on the person's role in making the singer feel alive
It's you
-It's you that makes me feel it
-You that makes me feel so alive
-So alive
-It's you
Final affirmation of the person's profound impact on the singer
It's you
-It's you
-It's you
