Lyrics
Hey now, talk to me softly
Desire for gentle communication
I can’t stop coughing
Expressing inability to cease coughing (possibly metaphorical)
Is God even watching?
Questioning the presence or awareness of God
I’d like to think that I am sleeping
Feeling detached from reality, akin to dreaming
But I’m daydreaming
Engaged in idle or wishful thinking during wakefulness
Been doing it for days now
Continuously engaged in daydreaming over an extended period
And so, we paint in the kitchen
Creating art (possibly metaphorically) while in a familiar space
Find something and listen
Searching for meaning or guidance through attentive listening
Forget what I’m missing
Attempting to forget or ignore what is lacking or absent
I’d like to wake up in your bed
Desiring intimacy or closeness with someone
Daydreaming has lead
Daydreaming leading to a prolonged feeling of sadness or melancholy
Me to feel blue for days now
Experiencing a persistent state of sadness due to daydreaming
In a few weeks, I think that I’ll be fine
Anticipating improvement in the near future
That just wasn’t what I needed to hear at the time
Unsatisfactory reassurance received at an inopportune time
Hey now, talk to me softly
Request for gentle communication repeated
I need some coffee
Expressing a need for coffee, potentially for stimulation or comfort
I love how you love me, but
Acknowledging love received but with an unresolved concern
I’d like to think that I am sleeping
Continued feeling of detachment from reality, akin to dreaming
But I’m daydreaming
Engaged in persistent idle or wishful thinking during wakefulness
Been stuck in this for days now
Stuck or trapped in a prolonged state of daydreaming
