Mr. Big - To Be With You - Rock


Mr. Big - To Be With You - Meaning of the song


The song "To Be With You" is based on a true story. Eric Martin, main singer of Mr. Big, wrote the song when he was still a teenager - he says he was 16 or 17 years old at the time. Patricia Reynolds was the girl, and he felt sorry for her.


Martin said:


"We were really, very good friends." "I was completely smitten by this woman. She was stunning. Smart. Brains, attractiveness, breaking down walls, and making me crawl on my stomach like a reptile!


I adored this woman, but all she wanted to do was be my buddy. She'd have a slew of boyfriends, and it's possible that she mistook promiscuity for love. However, I aspired to be a knight in shining armor. I was a knight in shining armor, that's what I was. But, in general, I did not get my feet wet. I wrote it about how I would have done anything to be more than simply a confidante and a friend."


To be with you - Lyrics


Hold on little girl Show me what he's done to you Stand up little girl A broken heart can't be that bad When it's through, it's through Fate will twist the both of you So come on baby come on over Let me be the one to show you I'm the one who wants to be with you Deep inside I hope you feel it too Waited on a line of greens and blues Just to be the next to be with you Build up your confidence So you can be on top for once wake up who cares about Little boys that talk too much I seen it all go down Your game of love was all rained out So come on baby, come on over Let me be the one to hold you I'm the one who wants to be with you Deep inside I hope you feel it too Waited on a line of greens and blues Just to be the next to be with you Why be alone when we can be together baby You can make my life worthwhile I can make you start to smile When it's through, it's through Fate will twist the both of you So come on baby come on over Let me be the one to show you I'm the one who wants to be with you Deep inside I hope you feel it too Waited on a line of greens and blues Just to be the next to be with you I'm the one who wants to be with you Deep inside I hope you feel it too Waited on a line of greens and blues Just to be the next to be with you Just to be the next to be with you
