Lyrics
I wake up and think of her
The singer wakes up and immediately thinks of a specific person.
No matter what i do
Regardless of the singer's actions or efforts, the person remains in their thoughts persistently.
She's always on my mind
That person consistently occupies the singer's thoughts throughout the day or for a short while.
A time a day or two
Even after a short duration, the person remains prevalent in the singer's mind.
Seems to me the things you've loved the most
Items or experiences that are cherished the most often end up being lost.
You always lose
There's a pattern of losing what one values deeply.
But once you've got them
Once obtained, those cherished things become a constant source of sorrow.
You've always got the blues
Having those precious things leads to a perpetual state of feeling melancholic or sad.
In time, well you may find someone else
In time, the singer might find another person who can provide solace or comfort.
That can comfort you
However, this new person cannot recreate the intense feelings or emotions the previous person evoked.
But not someone to light the fire
The new person can't ignite passion or emotions the same way as the previous person did.
No, not the way she used to do
The old flame had a unique way of bringing excitement or warmth that can't be replicated.
You lose the things that made it
As time passes, the aspects that made the relationship special fade away.
What it was when it was new
The original allure or charm of the relationship diminishes with time.
And once you've got them
Even when initially gained, those special elements still lead to feelings of sadness.
You've always got the blues
The enduring presence of those elements contributes to a perpetual sense of melancholy.
That new love only can replace
New love can only replace a limited portion of one's feelings or emotions.
Just so much of you
There's a significant part of oneself that remains unfulfilled or lost.
That leaves a lot that gets lost between
There's a substantial emotional gap between the first and the second most cherished experiences or relationships.
Number one and number two
The contrast between the most cherished and the second most cherished experiences.
In time, well you may find someone else
Over time, a new person might offer comfort or solace.
That can comfort you
However, this new individual cannot replicate the intense emotions or feelings from the past.
But not someone to light the fire
The previous flame had a unique way of igniting passion or emotions that can't be matched.
No, not the way she used to do
The special way the previous person made the singer feel passionate or alive.
You lose the things that made it
As time progresses, the aspects that made the relationship special gradually disappear.
What it was when it was new
The original allure or charm of the relationship diminishes with time.
And once you've got them
Even when initially gained, those special elements still lead to feelings of sadness.
You've always got the blues
The enduring presence of those elements contributes to a perpetual sense of melancholy.
