Lyrics
You were standing in a dark club down in New Orleans
You were in a dimly lit club in New Orleans.
You were walking by a cafe on a Paris street
You were strolling along a Parisian street near a cafe.
Be with me
Expressing a desire for companionship.
Protect me from the darkness of the sun
Seeking protection from the harshness of life.
Be with me
Reiterating the need for someone to be present.
Right now I just need to be with someone
Emphasizing the current urgency for companionship.
Saw you lying on the soft bed I had made for you
Observing someone lying on a prepared bed.
Words unspoken are the only words I know are true
Highlighting the authenticity of unspoken words.
Be with me
Repetition of the desire for companionship.
You are the flower in a desert sea
Comparing the person to a rare and beautiful entity in a desolate environment.
Be with me
Expressing a desire for a lasting connection.
Until the time to settle in with me, in with me
Yearning for a settled and enduring relationship.
Be with me
Reiteration of the plea to be with someone.
Saw you laughing under the heavy London winter sky
Observing joy under a somber London sky.
Saw you disappear into the coldness of the morning light
Noting the disappearance into the cold morning light.
Be with me
Repetition of the desire for protection and companionship.
Protect me from the darkness of the sun
Reiterating the need for protection from life's challenges.
Be with me
Expressing the immediate need for companionship.
Right now I just need to be with someone
Emphasizing the urgency to be with someone.
Oh with someone
Highlighting the general need for companionship.
Be with me
Repetition of the plea to be with someone.
Be with me
