Maroon 5: She Will Be Loved Meaning
Song Released: 2004
She Will Be Loved Lyrics
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her She always belonged to someone else
I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want...
-
"Beauty queen of only eighteen
She had some trouble with herself
He was always there to help her
She always belonged to someone else"
-since high school shes always been pretty and always had something going on. probably an abusive relationship involved with drugs or alcohol. He always helped her no matter what, but she was always with somebody else.
"I drove for miles and miles
And wound up at your door
I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more"
- he's been threw hell and back with her, whenever she cried for him he'd always be there for her. He's vulnerable to her.
"It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want"
Although when he goes to see her its not usually for the most positive reason, its always reassuring to him that he can compromise her to be happy. He's saying to her that if she ever wanted him he'll always be ready to take her "she can come anytime she wants"
"I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Ask her if she wants to stay awhile
And she will be loved'
- He doesnt mind waiting for her no matter what the situation be. The girl was broken by an abusive relationship and he saved her by keeping her safe. she can be truly loved now.
"I know where you hide
Alone in your car
Know all of the things that make you who you are
I know that goodbye means nothing at all
Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls"
She'll fall back on him asking everything of him, fall back into the abusive relationship and than go hide and sometimes she'll say shes not going to come back and hes saying he knows where she goes to cope, when he goes to save her she begs and begs to take her back as a friend even though shes drunk or said something she didn't mean and he always says yes to being her friend because he loves her more than a friend.
"Tap on my window knock on my door
I want to make you feel beautiful"
- Wherever he is, hes reassuring her that wherever she is shes always welcome to his home and whenever she'll take him he'll always make her feel beautiful and loved.
"I don't mind spending everyday
Out on your corner in the pouring rain"
- again, he'll do anything for her.
"please don't try so hard to say good bye"
- she keeps pushing people away and he doesn't want that for her so he keeps trying to save her over and over again. its like a cycle. -> girls hurt. -> boy loves her and saves her. -> she doesn't see the signs. doesn't listen. -> she falls back into the abusive mans tricks. -> starts all over. -
This song is about a guy who loves this girl and she's got emotional issues (depressed, insecure etc.) "Had some trouble with herself" and even though he always loved her and helped her, he knew they would never be together. "She always belonged to someone else" No matter what, he just can't leave her because he's so much in love with her. He would do anything for her and be there whenever someone hurt her or broke her heart. "My heart is full and my doors always open, come any time you want". Even though she already made it clear they were just friends, he's still gonna be there for her and will make sure she is loved. It's not about a prostitute. :)
As for the video: The guy falls in love with the rich mother of his girlfriend. The mother isn't getting any love from her husband. But in the end you realize that he is actually talking about the daughter who found out about her mom and her boyfriend but continues to love him. Not sure how it ties in with the song but that's it. -
I think it's about a hooker
-
It's about a guy, willing to do anything for the girl he loves. This girl is the best in everything, beautiful, but she has problems with self-esteem. But despite everything the guy has done, the girl always falls in love with someone else, guys that don't really care about her but just likes her because she's pretty. It's most likely that the girl and the guy are best friends... and yeah, you know how complicated it gets when you're in love with your best friend. But despite the girl's oblivion to the guy's care and all, the guy still cares about her.

sorry for my bad english, i'm debutant...i think that this song is about loving someone who doesn't necesserly loves you.. it's about power of love despite it's from one side...love is sad and powerful at the same time..i'm not sure that my idea have any sens..ok, i'm going now, thanks for reading
-
Basically what everyone else said. Its about a guy who is always gonna be there for a girl who is constantly hurt by her boyfriend. He loves her but she doesn't feel the same way. He loves her too much to give up on her.
-
i think this song is about a guy who always loved a girl he knew for awhile and knows everything about her but that girl knows he loves her but still goes out with other men. and then when those dumb guys hurt her she tells him her stories and hes always there listening and she feels bad and guilty because he should be the one she loves so she tries to say goodbye like in the end when he says please dont try so hard to say goodbye.. idk thats what i think..-nessawessa8

The way I see the song is that adam is dating the daughter. just to be close to her mom. He is really in love with her, but she is married....so he stays with the daughter because she reminds him of her mother. i read some of the comments above i just didnt get them. if you watch the video you can tell adam and the girl is dating.. and right at the end.. when adam and the mother are hugging..the little flash back happenes and the daughter sees them kissing.. she just didnt want to leave adam cuz she loved him so much.. she would just dea; with it and adam is telling her and she will be loved. but the look in the daughter's eyes at the end is her saying goodbye to adam
-
In sorry but actually this is about a girl with cancer.. I knew the girl and she went and met them.. He felt bad for her and wrote a song.. She later passed away.. Her name was Alyssa.. I did not personally know her, but I was Frieda with her sisters friend. This is why they said.. "she will be loved" thanks -Em
-
In my opinion, this about a guy who is in love with his best friend who is a girl. She is constantly getting her heart broken by guys and her guy friend who knows everything about her wants to be with her and treat her right I LOVE THIS SONG <3
-
Considering the parts that are in first tense and second tense, I always believed that the song was, yes, about a girl who was beautiful but never felt good enough and, yes, she had a friend that was always there for her and wanted her, but I think the song is about a guy she uses for sex to make herself feel better and he let's himself get used because he secretly has feelings for her.... But I might be wrong.... Maybe the friend and the other guy are one in the same, I don't know.

i think she's a prostitute to, at first i thought that she was just someone who was abused by her man but now with like
"stand on your corner"
"I've had you so many times but somehow
I want more"
"ask her if she wants to stay awhile"
i tihnk he fell in love with a prostitute/or that the one he loved from afar became one -
I thought he was just stalking her, LOL
-
My daughter, who was about 17 or 18 when this song came out, told me it was about a prostitute.
-
I was reading all the interpretatiobs about this song and i agree with the person that says that the video and song have 2 different interpretations. If u listen to the song alone pr read the lyric of it you will come to the conclusion that the guy was in love with her friend. All the interpretations most of you said. But in the video he is going out with this girl and he ends up fallin for the girls mom
