Lyrics
The sparkle in your eyes
The brightness or enthusiasm in your gaze
Look like all the stars
Resemble the vastness and beauty of all the stars
Do we see the same moon when you look up?
Questioning whether we perceive the same moon in the night sky
I can rob you of your time
Expressing the ability to consume someone's time
But still can't break in your complicated mind
Unable to penetrate or understand the complexities of the person's mind
Oh my, oh my
An expression of surprise or realization
Don't want you to fall in
Desire for the person not to fall into emotional involvement
Don't want you to fall in love
Reiteration of not wanting the person to fall in love
(Don't you) don't you carry on (carry on)
Encouraging the person not to persist or continue
(Even) even though we're worlds apart (worlds apart)
Acknowledging the significant physical and emotional distance between them
Darlin', I can play your favorite song
Offering the ability to bring joy through playing the person's favorite song
(Hollow) hollow out your room (your room)
Emphasizing emptiness or hollowness in the person's space
(The fire) stand by the fire
Standing beside the fire, symbolizing shared experiences and warmth
Where we slow dance through our darkest nights
Engaging in intimate moments during difficult times
Don't want you to fall in
Reiteration of not wanting the person to fall into love
Don't want you to fall in love
Reemphasizing the desire for emotional distance
With someone else
Explicitly expressing not wanting the person to fall in love with someone else
With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
-I'm painting the skies red
Symbolically painting the sky red, possibly representing intense emotions or passion
So don't close your eyes, babe
Advising the person not to close their eyes to the reality or feelings
'Cause even inside, I can feel it pouring
Despite external appearances, acknowledging internal emotions
I drown in my own bed
Feeling overwhelmed emotionally, possibly in a state of despair
Drown in the words said
Struggling with the impact of spoken words
How selfish am I?
Expressing self-awareness and potential guilt
Don't want you to fall in love
Reiterating the reluctance for the person to fall in love
With someone else
Continued emphasis on not wanting the person to fall in love with someone else
With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
-With someone else
