Hello
Echoes of Longing: Amy Lawton's 'Hello' Reveals the Emptiness of Absence
Lyrics
It's cold tonight out in this town,
Expressing a cold and lonely atmosphere in the town.
The lights are shining everywhere.
Describing the widespread presence of lights in the town.
But nothing feels the same without you,
Conveying a sense of emptiness and difference in the absence of someone special.
And I can't help wishing you were here.
Expressing a desire for the person to be present.
Hello, hello, sorry if i woke you up
Apologizing for potentially disturbing the person with a greeting.
Hello, hello, just wondering where you are it's nice to know
Expressing curiosity about the person's whereabouts and finding comfort in knowing.
Hello, hello, and i hope you feel the same
Wishing that the person shares the same feelings.
Hello.
A simple greeting.
And i fight the urge to call you
Struggling with the temptation to reach out to the person while moving around.
As I go from place to place.
Describing the difficulty in stopping thoughts about the person.
But i still can't stop thinking of you,
Continuing to think about the person as the night progresses.
As the night turns into day.
Emphasizing the persistent thoughts as night turns into day.
Hello, hello, sorry if i woke you up
Repeating the greeting, apologizing again, and expressing the pleasant feeling of knowing the person's location.
Hello, hello, just wondering where you are it's nice to know
Reiterating the curiosity about the person's whereabouts and the comfort it brings.
Hello, hello, and i hope you feel the same
Reiterating the hope that the person reciprocates the feelings.
Hello.
Repeating a simple greeting.
My hands are on the phone, and they start to shake.
Describing physical reactions (shaking hands) while holding the phone, indicating anticipation.
I've been waiting so long, to hear your voice,
Expressing a long-awaited desire to hear the person's voice.
But I'm so glad to hear you say.
Expressing joy and relief upon hearing the person's voice.
Hello, hello, sorry if i woke you up
Repeating the greeting and apology for a potential disturbance.
Hello, hello, just wondering where you are it's nice to know
Reiterating curiosity about the person's location and the reassurance it brings.
Hello, hello, and i hope you feel the same
Reiterating the hope for mutual feelings.
Hello.
Repeating a simple greeting.
Hello, hello, sorry if i woke you up
Repeating the greeting and apology once more.
Hello, hello, just wondering where you are it's nice to know
Reiterating curiosity about the person's whereabouts and the positive feeling it elicits.
Hello, hello, and i hope you feel the same
Reiterating the hope for shared feelings.
