Lyrics
Woke up early in the morning
Waking up early in the morning, starting a new day.
Just like any other day
Emphasizing the routine nature of the day.
When you told me nothing good will get away
Receiving a message that something valuable will not last.
Now I always had the feeling
Always sensing a larger purpose or plan in life.
That there was a bigger plan
Feeling that the bigger plan is slipping away.
But you're slipping through my fingers like sand
Expressing the loss or inability to hold onto something important.
You drift away from me
Noticing the person drifting away emotionally.
And there's nothing I, there's nothing I can do
Helplessness in preventing the emotional distance.
You take away from me
Experiencing loss as the person takes away emotions or connection.
You take everything I ever thought I knew
Losing everything that was once understood or familiar.
Maybe in Love there are no angels
Questioning the existence of perfect, angelic love.
Maybe there are no magic spells
Doubting the effectiveness of magical solutions in love.
Just as I'm afraid of heaven I know you're afraid of hell
Acknowledging fears of both heaven and hell in the relationship.
I don't know who I'd be without you
Uncertainty about personal identity without the other person.
I don't know how I'd stay alive
Fear of not being able to cope or survive without the person.
But I know no-one ever loved you more than I
Affirming unparalleled love for the drifting person.
You drift away from me
Reiteration of emotional distance and helplessness.
And there's nothing I, there's nothing I can do
Reaffirming the inability to change the emotional drift.
You take away from me
Emphasizing the loss of understanding or familiarity.
You take everything I ever thought I knew
Highlighting the complete loss of what was once known.
