Lyrics

I can hardly breathe

I am struggling to breathe, possibly due to emotional distress.

You don't love me no more

You no longer have feelings of love for me.

I can tell by the way you look in his eyes

I can sense your lack of love through the way you look at someone else.

And your lies to me are no surprise

Your lies to me are not surprising, indicating a breach of trust.

And wakin' up without you's gonna look like

Waking up without you will feel like a temporary and fleeting moment of joy.

A temporary sunrise

And facing a reality where you are absent is like a permanent state of darkness or despair.

And permanent midnight

Highlighting the theme of enduring pain and sadness, symbolized by "permanent midnight."

Tell me what can I do

Asking for guidance or solutions to bring back the lost love.

To bring you back to me

Expressing a desire for the return of the romantic connection.

If I could find the words to say

If I could express my feelings adequately, would it make a difference?

Would it even matter anyway

Raising doubts about the effectiveness of communication in restoring the relationship.

'Cause wakin' up without you's gonna look like

Waking up without you is compared again to a temporary and fleeting moment of joy.

A temporary sunrise

Emphasizing the enduring nature of the emotional darkness or despair.

And permanent midnight

Reiterating the theme of facing a long-lasting emotional hardship.

I wish I could love you like a blind man

Expressing a wish to love without being influenced by external appearances or judgments.

Wish you could see it that way baby

Desiring understanding from the partner despite the inability to physically see the love.

'Cause my daylight and darkness is all the same

Stating that whether it's light or darkness, it's all the same without the loved one.

It's all the same

Reinforcing the idea that the absence of the loved one makes everything indistinguishable.

Here I am

Presenting oneself in a vulnerable position, possibly indicating humility or submission.

On a bended knee

Continuing the theme of vulnerability, this time on one's knees, symbolizing supplication.

Beggin' you baby

Begging for the partner not to leave, displaying desperation and emotional plea.

Please please don't leave

Repetition of the plea for the partner to stay, intensifying the emotional appeal.

Here I am

Reiteration of the vulnerable position and the earnest request for the partner not to leave.

On a bended knee

Repeating the image of being on bended knee, emphasizing the depth of the plea.

Beggin' you baby

Continuing the desperate plea for the partner not to leave, underscoring the emotional pain.

Please please don't leave

A final, fervent request for the partner to stay, with a sense of urgency and emotional intensity.
