(Reba)
I will not make the same mistakes that you did
I will not let myself
Cause my heart so much misery
I will not break the way you did,
You fell so hard
I've learned the hard way
To never let it get that far
(Both)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
(Reba)
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Kelly)
I lose my way
And it's not too long before you point it out
I can not cry
Because I know that's weakness in your eyes
I'm forced to fake
A smile, a laugh everyday of my life
My heart can't possibly break
When it wasn't even whole to start with
(Both)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
(Reba)
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Reba)
I watched you die
I heard you cry every night in your sleep
I was so young
You should have known better than to lean on me
You never thought of anyone else
You just saw your pain
And now I cry in the middle of the night
For the same damn thing
(Reba)
Because of you
I never stray too far from the sidewalk
Because of you
I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt
Because of you
I find it hard to trust not only me,but everyone around me
(Both)
Because of you
I am afraid
(Reba)
Because of you
(Kelly)
ah ah ah ah
(Reba)
Because of you
(Kelly)
ah ah ah ah

What is the meaning behind Because Of You lyrics?
When we try to interpret the meaning, 'Because Of You' by Reba McEntire is a reflective piece to the past regarding the impacts of a hurt and insecure relationship. The words of the song lead one to think that the persona has learned to play it safe, has a fear of opening up, and goes through a struggle with trust. The persona's reaction eventually comes out as self-preservation and emotional unavailability. Because of you (ft. kelly clarkson) lyrics mainly point out the feelings of heartbreak, angst, reflection, despair and solitude. Besides, the song talks about the emotional and traumatic experiences, the fear and insecurity people live with, and the process of mourning. The lyrics address emotional pain, trust issues, and the effects of a troubled relationship, which may not be appropriate for kids under 13. The mentions of fear, loss, and emotional struggles imply a certain degree of maturity, thus parental guidance is recommended. ✔️

I love this song because I remember the crying at night and the broken dishes and a body being slamed against a wall. I almost went down that road but so far I havent. Thank you GOD.
