Middle of the Night
Midnight Reflections: Love Lost in the Silence
Lyrics
I woke up in the middle of the night
Waking up during the nighttime.
Waiting for you and the sunrise
Anticipating your presence and the arrival of morning.
Are you even there?
Expressing uncertainty about your existence or presence.
Am I alone?
Questioning if I am in solitude.
Last year's eve
Referring to a specific New Year's Eve in the past.
Standing as the breeze
Being in a moment where the wind removes debris.
Swept away the leaves from the floor
Describing a scene where the breeze clears the floor of leaves.
Then they called
Receiving a call or message.
I miss you
Expressing a feeling of longing or nostalgia for you.
So walk on slowly by
Advising to proceed slowly past me.
Walk on slowly by
Repeating the advice to walk past gradually.
Walk on slowly by
Emphasizing the need to continue walking slowly by.
Here I am
Declaring one's current state.
Broken up and bruised
Describing personal feelings of being shattered and battered.
Caught in your plans that I face
Caught up in plans or situations imposed by you.
I can't pretend I'm not the same
Unable to pretend or hide the fact that I am unchanged.
Your soul, it lies within my pain
Connecting your soul with my pain.
And time's a spell, it rings the knell
Describing time as a magical influence that signals an end.
And draws your final curtain
Using imagery of drawing curtains to depict a final closure.
I woke up in the middle of the night
Reiterating waking up during the night.
Waiting for you in the sunrise
Expecting your presence as the sun rises.
