Lyrics
Feels like the sun never shines on this poor man's yard
Feels like life's difficulties constantly affect this person's existence.
And when the nighttime falls, you know it falls down hard
Challenges intensify notably during the night.
If I had a hold on you, I know that I could get through it
If there was a strong connection with someone, they believe they could overcome hardships.
Love's like a bump on the head when it comes down to it
Love is compared to a sudden impact or shock when confronted.
Yes, it is
Reiterates the previous line's sentiment about love's nature.
I once had the eyes of a child, but I've slowly gone blind
Once possessed innocence or a more optimistic outlook, but has lost it gradually.
And now I'm reaching around in the dark and don't know what I'm gonna find
Currently feeling lost and uncertain about the future.
If I had a hold on you, I know that I could get through it
Expresses confidence in overcoming challenges if there was a strong bond with someone.
Love's like a bump on the head when it comes down to it
Restates the analogy of love being like a sudden impact or jolt.
Well, it feels like a bump on the head
Emphasizes the sensation of experiencing a sudden shock or impact.
My ears are ringing with the words that you said
Hearing hurtful or impactful words that linger in one's mind.
Love's like a bump on the head when it comes down to it
Love is compared again to a sudden impact or shock when confronted.
And you're layin' such a beatin' on my brain
Experiencing mental distress or turmoil due to someone's actions or absence.
Lying here without you again
Feeling the absence or separation from someone significant.
Love's like a bump on the head and I can't stand the pain
Love's impact is likened to unbearable pain.
Somethin's gonna bring 'bout a change, but a change in your mind
Change is anticipated but might be delayed or unattainable due to someone's indecision.
Can take more time than you've got and then you get left behind
Significant changes in someone's thinking might take too long, leading to being left behind.
