Lyrics
Daylight comes in the nick of time
Daylight arrives just in time.
Shines some light into the darkest corners of her mind
Brings illumination to the darkest corners of her mind.
All the world is, all the world is weighing down on you
The weight of the world is bearing down on the person.
Piece by piece, it all falls away
Things are falling apart, piece by piece.
All this beauty, all this magic 'til there's nothing there
Despite all the beauty and magic, it disappears until there's nothing left.
If only love was enough, I could reach you, I would reach you
If love alone were sufficient, the speaker could connect with the person.
I know I'm not tired of you, but maybe you got tired of me
The speaker acknowledges not being tired of the person, but wonders if the feeling is reciprocated.
It seems like every little thing I do makes you pull yourself away
Actions by the speaker seem to push the person away.
So I'm waiting for the sun, but you only see the gray
Waiting for positive change, but the person only perceives negativity.
Oh no, won't you please come on home
An urgent plea for the person to come back home.
Oh, I've been missing you, you got lost along the way
Expressing the feeling of missing the person who has lost their way.
Oh maybe you aren't lost; it's still in you some way
Suggesting that the person may still have some essence of themselves remaining.
If only love was enough, I could reach you, I would reach you
Reiteration that love alone should be enough to bridge the gap.
I know I'm not tired of you, but maybe you got tired of me
The speaker is not tired of the person, but wonders if the reverse is true.
It seems like every little thing I do makes you pull yourself away
Actions by the speaker continue to create distance.
So I'm waiting for the sun, but you only see the gray
Waiting for a positive change, but the person only sees negativity.
Oh no, won't you please come on home
A plea for the person to come back home.
Seems like every little thing I do makes you pull yourself away
Repetition of actions pushing the person away.
So I'm waiting for the sun, but you only see the gray
Continued hope for a positive change, but the person sees only gray.
Oh no, won't you please come on home
Reiteration of the plea for the person to come back home.
If only love was enough, I would reach you, I could reach you
Emphasizes that if love alone were sufficient, the speaker could reach and connect with the person.
