Next to You
Embracing Growth: Next to You's Journey of Promise and Uncertainty
Lyrics
Yesterday I made a promise to
Yesterday, I made a promise to someone.
Someone who's been there for me
Expressing gratitude for someone who has supported and been there for the speaker.
Well I don't know if what I said was true
Uncertainty about the truthfulness of what was said in the promise.
But those problems won't still wear on me
Despite the uncertainty, the speaker acknowledges that certain problems continue to affect them.
I gotta find a place to be 'cause
Expressing the need to find a suitable place or state of being.
Everybody wants be to be what they want me to be
Feeling pressured to conform to others' expectations and desires for the speaker's identity.
Well Oh I'm gonna try, oh I gotta try
Expressing determination to try and meet these expectations.
So baby pull me closer
Asking the listener to pull the speaker closer.
Next to you
Expressing a desire to be physically close to the listener.
'Cause I'm just glad to know ya'
Grateful for the listener's presence and acknowledging the positive impact it has.
Like I aint used to
Highlighting the speaker's changed perspective or emotions towards the listener.
And maybe if we hurry
Suggesting a sense of urgency, possibly in the context of the relationship's development.
We can catch a flight
Proposing the idea of taking a spontaneous trip together.
Talk about our futures
Planning to discuss and envision their future during the night.
Throughout the night
Expressing the desire for an extended conversation about future plans.
But I think we both know
Acknowledging that certain aspects of life are beyond their control.
That all these things are out of our control
Recognizing the limitations and uncertainties in their situation.
So baby if you're worried
Encouraging open communication if the listener is worried about the relationship.
Tell me so
Expressing the speaker's belief that the relationship is valuable and worth addressing concerns.
'Cause I think that its worth it
Suggesting that the challenges they face are worth overcoming for the growth of the relationship.
For us to grow
Emphasizing the importance of personal and relational growth.
