Make It With You

The speaker is making a hopeful, somewhat vulnerable offer to begin a relationship. At first, he admits that reaching for love may be unrealistic, but he decides to try anyway. His feelings grow into a clear belief that the two of them might build a life together, although he knows they are still getting to know each other.

“Reaching out for the other side” suggests striving toward something distant or difficult, here possibly a deep connection. “Climbing on rainbows” sounds like chasing an unlikely dream, so the speaker recognizes that his hopes may be overly optimistic. The repeated phrase “make it with you” can mean succeeding together or building a shared life, while “time will tell” acknowledges that trust and compatibility need to be tested.

The lyrics balance confidence with uncertainty. The speaker believes they share important values and says they could “see it through,” yet he also admits that love can be right or wrong and that they do not know each other well. “Dreams are for those who sleep” may contrast passive dreaming with actively choosing a relationship, but it could also simply express the speaker’s conviction that life should be lived rather than only imagined. The song presents hope as a choice, not a guarantee.
