Months
Longing Across Months
Lyrics
Mmm I wake up and wonder
The singer wakes up and reflects on their thoughts.
If things would be different if you were near
Contemplating how things might change if a certain person were closer.
So I try to distract myself from daydreaming but then you'll disappear
Attempting to avoid daydreaming about the person who keeps disappearing.
So I kiss you in my head
Mentally expressing affection by imagining kissing the person.
Then I'll go right to bed
Transitioning from thoughts to bedtime, finding solace in being with the person in dreams.
Cuz at least I'll be with you while I sleep
Expressing a desire to be with the person even in the realm of dreams during sleep.
And until then I promise that I'll always be honest
Pledging honesty and expressing the current strong desire for intimacy.
And right now all I want is you on top of me
Yearning for physical closeness with the person.
So come home baby
A plea for the person to come home.
Please come home
Repetition of the plea for the person to return.
I'm sick and tired of the months between the days
Frustration about the time spent apart, longing for the person to stay.
You should be at home girl won't you stay
Direct request for the person to stay at home.
I'm tryna break the cycle step out of phase
Expressing a desire to break a repetitive cycle and move forward.
But I'm walking home again tonight
Walking home alone, possibly feeling the absence of the person.
Mmm do you ever think we could be for real maybe this time
Questioning the possibility of a genuine relationship this time.
Cuz I well I remember when you'd place your slippers right next to mine
Recalling a past shared intimacy, symbolized by placing slippers together.
Do you remember
Prompting a shared memory and questioning if the person remembers it.
It's simple but it's perfect
Describing the remembered moment as simple but perfect.
And I still think we can work this work this
Expressing optimism about the potential success of the relationship.
Out if you fly home to sleep with me
Believing that the relationship can be salvaged if the person returns.
Sweet dreams baby
Wishing the person sweet dreams and a promise for a special night.
And for one night I promise
A commitment to make the night memorable and enjoyable.
I'll make it hot sweet like August
Describing the promise to make the night sweet and hot, akin to August.
And I know you're dreaming of me tonight
Awareness of the person dreaming about the singer.
I'm sick and tired of the months between the days
Reiteration of frustration with the time spent apart.
You should be at home girl won't you stay
Repeating the request for the person to stay at home.
I'm tryna break the cycle step out of phase
Continued desire to break the cycle and move forward.
But I'm walking home again tonight
Walking home alone again, reflecting the ongoing loneliness.
I'm sick and tired of the months between the days
Reiteration of frustration with the time spent apart.
You should be at home girl won't you stay
Repeating the request for the person to stay at home.
I'm tryna break the cycle step out of phase
Continued desire to break the cycle and move forward.
But I'm walking home again tonight
Ending the song with the repetition of walking home alone, emphasizing the solitude.
