Lyrics
Paradise settled in, on our skin
Expressing the sense of paradise or bliss that is felt, possibly in a relationship.
You're my world, but it doesn't mean a single thing to you
Despite considering the person the center of one's world, their importance may not be reciprocated.
'Cause I could travel miles away
Expressing a willingness to travel far distances for the relationship.
And you wouldn't write one little word to say
Feeling neglected or unacknowledged as the other person doesn't communicate or express feelings.
I wish I could hold you like I did that night
Longing to recreate a specific moment of holding the person closely.
In the kitchen, stood in your arms
Recalling a moment in the kitchen, emphasizing physical closeness and emotional connection.
If every night could be like that moment
Desiring that every night could embody the special moment mentioned earlier.
If only I didn't have to try so hard
Expressing a wish for a more effortless and natural connection without the need for excessive effort.
Realising it's all sinking in, we won't talk again
A realization that the relationship is fading, and there won't be further communication.
'Cause I could travel miles away
Reiterating the willingness to travel for the relationship, despite the lack of reciprocation.
And you wouldn't write one little word to say
Repeating the feeling of being ignored or neglected in terms of communication.
I wish I could hold you like I did that night
Expressing the desire to hold the person as in a specific past night.
In the kitchen, stood in your arms
Revisiting the memory of being physically close in the kitchen.
If every night could be like that moment
Expressing a longing for every night to be as emotionally significant as that particular moment.
If only I didn't have to try so hard
Wishing for a relationship that doesn't require intense effort to maintain.
'Cause I travelled miles away
Reiterating the willingness to travel far distances for the relationship.
And I wish I could do it all again
Expressing a desire to relive past experiences, despite potential challenges.
You didn't have to stay
Acknowledging that the person didn't have to stay in the relationship.
And I didn't mean to hold on to you
An unintentional act of holding onto the person emotionally or physically.
You didn't have to stay, didn't have to hold on to you
Reiterating the person's freedom to leave, highlighting a lack of compulsion to stay.
You didn't have to stay, didn't have to hold on
Emphasizing that the person had the freedom to leave without being held onto.
I wish I could hold you like I did that night
Expressing a desire to recreate the intimacy of a specific night in the kitchen.
In the kitchen, stood in your arms
Recalling the physical and emotional closeness experienced in the kitchen.
If every night could be like that moment
Wishing for every night to carry the same emotional weight as the mentioned moment.
If only I didn't have to try so hard
Expressing a desire for a relationship that doesn't require excessive effort.
