Yearning Nights: A Song of Absence and Restless Longing
Lyrics
Of all the times that I used to fear
Reflecting on past fears that have gradually diminished over time.
Aged like wine almost every year
Time has positively impacted experiences, improving them similar to how wine gets better with age.
Restless eyes look me up and down
Someone's restless gaze is examining the singer.
I hope shut them before you frown
Desire for the gaze to stop before it turns into disapproval.
I spent another night without Annie here
Expressing the absence of Annie, possibly a significant other.
I spent another night without Annie here
Reiteration of the absence of Annie, highlighting the impact.
So I peak around but you're not near
The singer searches but cannot find the person they seek.
I spent another night without Annie here
Emphasizing the emotional difficulty of Annie's absence.
Just go ahead and let it out
Encouraging someone to express their emotions freely.
Theres too much weight to stand astound
Feeling overwhelmed by a heavy burden.
But you walk away
A sense of disappointment as someone walks away.
Restless eyes look me up and down
Repeated description of someone's searching gaze.
I hope you shut them before you frown
Hope that the gaze stops judging before it turns into disapproval.
I spent another night without Annie here
Reiteration of the impact of Annie's absence.
I spent another night without Annie here
Highlighting again the emotional impact of Annie's absence.
So I peak around but you're not near
Searching for someone who is not in close proximity.
I spent another night without Annie here
Repeating the emotional struggle of Annie's absence.
I spend another night without Annie here
Emphasizing the ongoing absence of Annie.
(Without Annie here)
Reiteration of spending nights without Annie.
I spend another night without Annie here
Continued emphasis on the emotional toll of Annie's absence.
(Without Annie here)
Repeating the search for someone who isn't nearby.
So I peak around but you're not near
Continued longing for someone who isn't physically present.
(You're not near)
Reiterating the absence of the person being sought.
I spend another night without Annie here
Emphasizing the ongoing emotional struggle without Annie.
I spent another night without Annie here
Highlighting the repetitive nature of nights spent without Annie.
I spent another night without Annie here
Reiteration of the emotional impact of Annie's absence.
So I peak around but you're not near
Continued search for someone who isn't nearby.
I spent another night without Annie here
Repeating the emotional hardship of nights without Annie.
I spent another night without Annie here
Repetition highlighting the persistent absence of Annie.
I spent another night without Annie here
Continued struggle and emotional impact of Annie's absence.
So I peak around but you're not near
Repeating the unsuccessful search for someone who isn't nearby.
I spent another night without Annie here
Final emphasis on the emotional strain of nights spent without Annie.
