Off My Feet
Swept Away in Dreams: Cindy Zhang's Melodic Tale of Love
Lyrics
Could this be the sign that you are giving me
Expressing curiosity about a possible signal or sign from someone.
Is this a green light
Questioning whether the situation indicates approval or permission.
Or have I lost my sight
Uncertainty about the situation, questioning one's perception.
They say wear your seat belts
Reference to conventional safety advice, possibly metaphorical.
Keep an eye out for yourself
Encouragement to be vigilant and prioritize self-care.
But I just wanna take a detour
Expressing a desire to deviate from the usual path or routine.
Don't know where we're going anymore
Feeling lost or uncertain about the direction of the relationship.
And I can't wait to fall asleep
Anticipation and eagerness for a specific moment (falling asleep).
Cause you're the only one I see in my dreams
Signifying the person is a significant presence in dreams.
And I'm so glad that you found me
Expressing gratitude for being discovered or noticed by someone.
Cause you're the only man sweeping off my feet
Acknowledging the impact of the person, particularly in a romantic sense.
You got me off my feet
Reiterating the effect of the person by literally getting the speaker "off their feet."
I don't wanna waste my time with these other guys
Expressing a desire not to waste time on relationships with others.
You know I'm patiently waiting
Indicating patience in waiting for a change or commitment from the person.
For you to change my mind
Openness to having one's perspective changed by the person.
So would you let me know the next time you're around
Requesting communication and a heads-up about the person's presence.
I'll drop whatever I'm doing
Expressing willingness to prioritize the person over other activities.
You know I'm always down
Stating readiness to be available for the person whenever needed.
I got a picture of you painted behind my closed eyes
Describing a vivid mental image or memory of the person.
And I don't know why
Expressing confusion or curiosity about the intensity of feelings.
Guess it's 'cause you were so hard to find
Highlighting the difficulty of finding someone special.
I've got a lot of things to do
Acknowledging other responsibilities but prioritizing time for the person.
But I'll always make the time for you
Commitment to making time for the person despite challenges.
No matter how hard I try
Expressing difficulty in stopping thoughts about the person.
Can't seem to get you off my mind
Persistent presence of the person in the speaker's thoughts.
And I can't wait to fall asleep
Reiteration of anticipation and eagerness for a specific moment (falling asleep).
Cause you're the only one I see in my dreams
Reiterating the significant presence of the person in dreams.
And I'm so glad that you found me
Expressing gratitude for being discovered or noticed by someone (repeated).
Cause you're the only man sweeping off my feet
Acknowledging the impact of the person, particularly in a romantic sense (repeated).
You got me off my feet
Reiterating the effect of the person by literally getting the speaker "off their feet" (repeated).
I got a song about you written on my phone
Indicating the creation of art (song) inspired by the person.
Oh boy you should know
Sharing the intensity of emotions and the impact on self-control.
I'm losing all my self control
Expressing a state of losing control due to feelings for the person.
I finally found somebody that's worth singing about
Celebrating finding someone valuable enough to write about.
I think I've figured it out
Claiming to have figured out that the person is the only one needed.
I don't need anybody else
Declaring independence from the need for anyone else.
