Counting
Counting on Love's Arithmetic: A Melodic Journey of Yearning and Reflection
Lyrics
Lonely, but only for a while
Feeling lonely temporarily, not for an extended period
You could... phone me if the day slows down and talk until the rain holds up
Expressing willingness to communicate if time allows, wanting to talk until the rain stops
I don't wanna keep you up
Not wanting to inconvenience or disturb the other person
Only half an hour from Maybee
Referencing a location, suggesting proximity
And I'm thinking... we could take a drive and talk about the things we love
Suggesting a drive to discuss mutual interests but not rushing
I don't wanna speed this up
Preferring not to accelerate the situation
Fall asleep thinking the same old things
Having recurring thoughts before falling asleep
On your street, begging me not to leave
Imagining reluctance from someone to leave
Pretty sure I messed it up and I don't wanna think too much
Believing to have made mistakes but avoiding overthinking
But everything tells me I do
Feeling compelled to think despite the wish not to
Enumerate all of it, I'm counting on you
Requesting assistance in listing everything, relying on someone
Lately I can barely make it to the evening
Struggling to make it through the day recently
I woke up from a nightmare on a screened-in porch
Waking up from a distressing dream in a specific location
Don't know what I'm sleeping for
Uncertain about the purpose of sleep
Daily I find the equilibrium is fading
Feeling the balance in life diminishing on a daily basis
And gravity is doing what it came here for
Alluding to the inevitability of natural forces affecting life
Found me on the basement floor
Being found in a vulnerable state in a lower area
I fell asleep, dreaming the same old dreams
Dreaming repetitive, familiar scenarios before sleeping
On my street, begging you not to leave
Imagining someone pleading not to be abandoned
Pretty sure I messed it up and I don't wanna care too much
Feeling responsible for mistakes but trying not to care excessively
But everyone tells me I do
Perceiving external opinions emphasizing caring despite personal intent
Enumerate all of it, I'm counting on you
Seeking help to list everything, relying on someone's support
Enumerate all of it, I'm counting on you
Reiterating the reliance on someone to enumerate things
Enumerate all of it, I'm counting on you
Repeating the need for assistance in counting or listing
