Dead of Night
Embracing Memories: Finding Solace in the Dead of Night
Lyrics
I turn over and I'm wide awake
The speaker wakes up and finds it difficult to sleep.
Today is a new day
Recognizing the start of a new day.
Oh, I hope it's a good day
Expressing a wish or hope for a positive day ahead.
I miss your love
Feeling the absence of someone's love.
Time flies, a quarter to midnight now
Noticing the passing of time, almost midnight.
I try to forget you
Attempting to move on or erase memories of a past love.
When I close my eyes
Trying to sleep or escape by closing the eyes.
And then I remember
Recollection of memories resurface despite trying to forget.
In the dead of night
Repetition emphasizing the recollection during the night.
In the dead of night
-It's then I remember
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-That time in the dead of night
Reflecting specifically on a memory during the night.
I think of the good years
Thinking about positive moments or good times.
Oh I think of a New Year
Reflecting on the hopeful nature of a new year.
And I feel alright
Feeling okay or content while reminiscing.
Time flies boarding a midnight train
Noticing time passing by, possibly referencing a journey.
I'm caught in the moment
Feeling engrossed or trapped in a specific moment.
When close my eyes
Another attempt to shut out memories by closing the eyes.
And then I remember
Recurrence of memories despite attempts to forget.
In the dead of night
Repeated resurgence of memories during the night.
In the dead of night
-It's then I remember
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-It's then I remember
Another instance of remembering during the night.
In the dead of night
Continued recurrence of memories in the dead of night.
In the dead of night
-And then I remember
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-It's then I remember
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
-In the dead of night
Final emphasis on memories resurfacing at night.
