Lyrics
I ain't getting any sleep
I am experiencing insomnia or restlessness.
Just waiting for the dawn
I am anticipating the morning or a new beginning.
The moon's the company I keep
The moon is my only companion since our love ended.
Since our love's been gone
Our love has ended, and I've been alone since then.
Had a pocketful of pride
I used to have pride, but it's now gone.
Now it's all been traded
All my pride has been exchanged or lost.
For a thorn in my side
I now bear a burden or pain since our love has diminished.
Since our love has faded
Our love has faded, causing a significant change in my life.
And that life-giving rain
The nurturing and life-sustaining aspect of our relationship has turned cold and harsh.
Is now cold and violent
The once warm and comforting rain has become cold and harsh.
Nothing's been the same
Nothing has remained the same since our love became silent.
Since our love fell silent
Our love has become silent, leading to a profound change.
And the promises we made
The commitments and assurances we made are now revealed as falsehoods.
Are just lies we've told
The promises are exposed as lies that we've told each other.
You break yours I'll keep mine
We both have broken promises, and I choose to retain mine due to our love turning cold.
Because our love's gone cold
Our love has become emotionally distant or indifferent.
Our love's gone cold
Reiteration that our love has turned cold.
Close my eyes and count to one hundred
I engage in a symbolic act of waiting and introspection.
Wait for the reasons to get up from under it
Waiting for reasons to overcome the challenges in our relationship.
Close my eyes and count to one hundred
Repeating the symbolic act of waiting and seeking reasons.
I wait for the reasons
Expressing the anticipation and longing for understanding.
I wait for the reasons
Continued anticipation and waiting for clarity or resolution.
Our love's gone cold
Reaffirmation that our love has become emotionally distant or indifferent.
