Imagine being at your lowest point, feeling lost and broken. This song captures that raw vulnerability beautifully. The narrator finds herself stranded, both literally and emotionally, with only her child for company. She’s hesitant but desperate enough to reach out to someone she once hurt deeply. Through the lyrics, you feel her regret and longing for forgiveness as she learns about his new life—sober, working honestly, possibly even moved on with someone else. The repeated plea to be humbled by a higher power underscores her desire for redemption and grace. It’s a heartfelt cry for understanding and a second chance, wrapped in Norah Jones' soulful voice.
Humble Me
Lyrics
Went out on a limb
Gone too far
I broke down at the side of the road
Stranded at the outskirts and sun's creepin' up
Baby's in the backseat
Still fast asleep
Dreamin' of better days
I don't want to call you
But you're all I have to turn to
What do you say
When it's all gone away?
Baby I didn't mean to hurt you
The truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart
No matter how hard you resist it
It never rains when you want it to
You humble me Lord
Humble me Lord
I'm on my knees empty
You humble me Lord
You humble me Lord
So please, please, please forgive me
Baby Teresa, she's got your eyes
I see you all the time
When she asks about her daddy
I never know what to say
Heard you kicked the bottle
And you helped build a church
You carry an honest wage
Is it true you have somebody keeping you company?
What do you say
When it's all gone away?
Baby I didn't mean to hurt you
Truth spoke in whispers will tear you apart
No matter how hard you resist it
It never rains when you want it to
You humble me Lord
You humble me Lord
I'm on my knees empty
You humble me Lord
You humble me Lord
So please, please forgive me
You humble me
