Dean Lewis, known for his emotional depth and raw lyrics, has just dropped his highly anticipated single “With You.” The song is a poignant reflection on love, heartache, and the lingering emotions that come after a deep connection fades away.
“With You” is a beautiful yet melancholic track, featuring vulnerable lyrics that resonate with anyone who’s ever experienced the uncertainty and pain of love lost. From the very first line, “Talk me down, tell me everything’s alright,” Lewis sets the tone for a journey through emotional turmoil and self-doubt.
The song’s lyrics showcase the struggle of trying to make sense of conflicting emotions. “Cause I’m running round in circles, trying so hard to convince myself that you’re asleep alone in your bed” speaks to the internal conflict of holding on to hope even when reality may be telling a different story.
A recurring theme throughout the song is the feeling of being trapped in uncertainty, trying to make sense of promises once made in the dark, only to be left behind when the emotional weight becomes too heavy. Lewis captures the emotional gravity of these moments, singing, “Take it back, all the words you said laying in my arms, if you didn’t mean them, cause my heart don’t work like that.”
The song further explores the idea of waiting for someone who may never return, with lines like, “And you told me to be patient, and I was patient for you, patient for you,” echoing the pain of waiting for a love that may never come to fruition.
The chorus, “I was ready to fall in love with somebody, in love with somebody like you,” is the heart of the song, highlighting the depth of emotion and how it can leave you tethered to someone even when it’s clear that moving on is the only option. Despite the heartache, Lewis confesses, “I’m still in love with you, with you, without you,” leaving listeners with a bittersweet reflection on love’s complicated nature.
“With You” stands as a testament to Dean Lewis’ unique ability to connect with listeners through heartfelt, relatable storytelling and emotionally charged melodies. The song is a journey of love and loss, beautifully captured in a hauntingly unforgettable track.
You can listen to “With You” on all major streaming platforms, and if you’ve ever found yourself in love with someone who just couldn’t stay, this song will surely hit home.
