3 Doors Down – Here Without You lyrics

3 Doors Down – Here Without You lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
A hundred days have made me older
Since the last time that I saw your pretty face
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face

[Chorus]
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight it's only You and Me

[Verse 2]
The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as We go

[Chorus]
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it's only You and Me

[Bridge]
Everything I know and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it wont take away my Love
And when the last one falls
When it's all said and done
It gets hard but it wont take away my Love

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus]
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
I'm here without you baby
But you're still with me in my dreams
And tonight girl it's only You and Me...
Yeah
Oh, yeah

[Outro]

The band’s second biggest song, behind “Kryptonite,” is an anthem aimed at a missing or lost lover, designed to straddle the distance between them and communicate just how desperately the central figure misses their soulmate.

Brad Arnold said: "Here Without You" was a song that I wrote for my now-ex-wife. I didn’t write it for her, I guess, she was just mainly the inspiration for the thought process. And it was really kind of about all of us, in a way. The song’s about being away from someone, or missing them. And it really doesn’t matter if you’re here without them for all day or all month. It’s about the loneliness and missing of somebody. But in a way, people take that as a little bit of a sad song, and I kind of meant it as a happy song, because it’s talking about being here without you, but she’s still with me in my dreams. And tonight, it’s only you and me, so the song was really about that dream. And being in a state of peace, because you’ve got that person there with you in your sleep. In that way I kind of meant for it to be a little bit of a happy song."
The track reached number 5 on the US Billboard charts, and sold over 2 million copies in the US. The track featured an emotional video made up of shots of the band playing the track live in the studio.

To me this song is applicable to anyone, like me, who has to leave their loved ones behind to do something whether it's a deployment, a band traveling, school, work. I have lived this type of life for just shy of ten years and my wife who I have to leave behind in order to support us, is always on my mind and keeps me going. No matter how far away or what I am doing, it won't destroy what we have. And over the miles she can make me smile when I'm lonely and I always hope she will visit me in my dreams each night until we are together again. :) Thank God for the internet to connect. It's at least something. When it works. :)

I believe that he is writing about someone he loved very much but who he took for granted and perhaps was not truthful to her. I believe that he is doesn't believe that he is to blame for the split. She moved away and he realizes that he never got over this girl. He thinks about her all the time and the only relief he has from that hurt is when he dreams about her.

This song can be used as a psychological/spiritual reinforcement/tool for finding and healing oneself if interpreted as one's true self>. "Here without you but still on my mind" being disconnected from the self she damaged for a period of time, "but tonight it's you and me" meaning you've found and made peace with yourself.

@blob4ever. I think you could be right, but I imagine this song to be more about their love lives as band members on the road. Their gf or wives are far away at home while their touring in distant places, and they are missing them very much. It's a message back to their loved ones far away. Or you can also interpret this song to be about lost of loved one that has passed away. Google the name of this song plus the word Wow(World of Warcraft). It's an awesome, but sad music video. Check it out!
