You Were Right Lyrics

You were right
I know I can't get enough of you
Leave it all to bloom
You were right
I know I can't get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

Under the water
I'm sinking farther down
Floating on nothing, I'm nothing
Arms are wide open
I'm calling out your name
Sitting here waiting, I'm waiting

You were right
I know I can't get enough of you

You were right
I know I can't get enough of you
Leave it all to bloom
You were right
I know I can't get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

I'm cold in the river
Lips move and there's no sound
Pulling me under, I'm under
Giving me nothing
Keep telling me I'll be fine
Keeping me guessing, I'm guessing

You were right

(Can't get enough, can't get enough...)

You were right
I know I can't get enough of you (x2)

You were right
I know I can't get enough of you
Leave it all to bloom
You were right
I know I can't get enough of you, no
The things that I would do

Cover art for You Were Right lyrics by RÜFÜS DU SOL

The lyrics seem to convey a dark and desperate interpretation. The repeated phrase "You were right" suggests a realisation or acknowledgement of someone's correctness or wisdom, possibly in a negative or damaging context. The lines "Under the water, I'm sinking further down" and "Pulling me under, I'm under" evoke a sense of drowning or being overwhelmed by a difficult situation.

The mention of being "cold in the river" and "lips moving, there's no sound" implies a feeling of isolation or being trapped, unable to communicate or express oneself effectively. The lines "You've given me nothing" and "Keeping me kissing, out guessing" suggest a sense of disappointment and manipulation, where someone may be leading the speaker on or withholding something important.

The repeated phrase "I know I can't get enough of you" could be seen as a self-awareness of being trapped in a destructive relationship or situation, where the speaker acknowledges their inability to break free despite knowing it is unhealthy. The overall tone of the lyrics is melancholic and hints at feelings of despair, longing, and powerlessness.
