Irvine Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Are you there, are you watching me
As I lie here on this floor?
They say you feel what I do
They say you're here every moment

[Verse 2]
Will you stay? Stay 'til the darkness leaves
Stay here with me
I know you're busy, I know I'm just one
But you might be the only one who sees me
The only one to save me

[Chorus 1]
Why is it so hard?
Why can't you just take me?
I don't have much to go
Before I fade completely

[Verse 3]
Can you feel how cold I am?
Do you cry as I do?
Are you lonely up there all by yourself?
Like I have felt all my life
The only one to save mine
[Chorus 2]
How are you so strong?
What's it like to feel so free?
Your heart is really somethin'
Your love, a complete mystery to me

[Verse 4]
Are you there watching me
As I lie here on this floor?
Do you cry, do you cry with me?
Cry with me tonight

[Outro]
Are you there?
Are you watching me?

What did Kelly Clarkson say about "Irvine"?
Genius Answer

Kelly Clarkson talked about the song’s meaning in an article that appears on ComediansAndSpeakers

The song is a prayer from the lowest point in my life. There comes a time when you feel like, if He’s up there, God, or whatever you want to call Him, is the only one that can help me out. After that night, I know there’s someone or something out there looking out for me.
