Comfort You Lyrics

Cover art for Comfort You lyrics by Eskimo Joe

I think this song is talking about God and how He is always there to comfort us when we need Him, which is all the time!... and one day He will return to do just that!

I think this song is about the lack of any "Greater Being" and how the singer is telling their friend that they'll be there for them. Even if no-one else would be.

Trying to put "God" as the meaning of a song with 9 words is like me interpreting the colour of someones curtians to be the outwards expression of my friends inner depression, because they're too afraid to speak up for fear of mocking.

It just doesn't make sense.
