Lyrics
Last night I slept the wrong way on my bed
Last night, I slept uncomfortably.
A street light burned my eyes and hurt my head
A bright street light bothered me and caused discomfort.
Then when the sun finally came up I went outside
After dawn, I went outside.
I wanted to tell you what I thought of the whole night
I wanted to express my thoughts about the night.
And I'm about to know you for the rest of my life
I feel like I'm on the brink of knowing you for the entirety of my life.
And you can tell me anything as long as it's not goodbye
You can confide in me, but I hope it's not a farewell.
And I don't want to leave you in my hometown past life
I don't want memories of my past life in this town to make me want to leave you.
But when I call you answer, everything's gonna be alright
When I reach out, I hope for reassurance that everything will be fine.
In my car, we rush to make the train but we get there fine
We hurriedly try to catch a train but eventually manage to arrive.
And then we start to settle down in the wrong line
However, we end up in the wrong queue or path.
And next year is gonna be real busy but I'll make time
Despite a busy upcoming year, I promise to make time for you.
To call you and ask you how your day was and tell you about mine
I want to share and listen to stories about our days.
And I'm about to know you for the rest of my life
My intention is to get to know you deeply for the entirety of our lives.
And you can tell me anything as long as it's not goodbye (don't tell me goodbye)
Feel free to share, but I don't want our conversation to end in goodbye.
And I don't want to leave you in my hometown past life
My past in this town shouldn't make me want to leave you behind.
But when I call you answer, everything's gonna be alright
Your response when I reach out brings comfort, assuring that things will be fine.
I remember I once told you we had so much time left
I once mentioned we had ample time, but circumstances might change that.
But if we drive around this summer I'll have to hold my breath
If we spend time together this summer, I'll feel anxious.
I guess nothing in this world can ever be guaranteed
In this uncertain world, nothing is guaranteed.
I just wanna lock my future up and swallow the key
I want to secure my future and avoid uncertainties.
And I don't really cry anymore
I don't cry much anymore.
I spilled all my tears when I was seventeen
I shed most of my tears when I was seventeen.
Before it stopped feeling real
Emotions became less vivid, possibly during a period of isolation.
In quarantine
Referencing a time during quarantine.
And I don't really cry anymore
My tears are rare now, except for a recent moment we shared.
Except for that day we cried together last week
We cried together recently.
You text me in invisible ink
You messaged me, but the content feels concealed or hidden.
So I can't see
Your message feels like it's in invisible ink, metaphorically hidden.
So I can't see
I can't perceive or understand the content of your message.
Wearing yellow
Wearing yellow represents a feeling of safety.
When you feel me I hope you feel safe
I hope when you're with me, you feel secure.
Shades of purple
Shades of purple may denote a longing for a past connection or feeling.
It's been a while since I've seen your face
It's been a while since I've seen your face.
