Need You Now
Yearning Echoes: Midnight Confessions and Longing Whispers
Lyrics
Picture perfect memories
Reflecting on flawless memories
Scattered all around the floor
Memories scattered on the floor
Reaching for the phone 'cause, I can't fight it anymore
Feeling compelled to call someone because the emotional struggle is overwhelming
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
Contemplating if the person is ever in their thoughts
For me it happens all the time
Expressing that thoughts of the person are frequent
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
It's late, feeling isolated, and urgently needing the person
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
Breaking a promise not to call due to losing self-control
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now
Expressing dependency and the inability to cope without the person
Another shot of whiskey, can't stop looking at the door
Seeking solace in alcohol, unable to divert attention from anticipating the person's arrival
Wishing you'd come sweepin' in the way you did before
Longing for the person to return in the same way as before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
Reflecting on whether they cross the person's mind
For me it happens all the time
Emphasizing the recurrence of thoughts about the person
It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk, and I need you now
It's late, feeling intoxicated, and desperately needing the person
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now
Breaking a promise again due to losing control over emotions
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now
Reiterating the emotional dependence and the struggle to function without the person
Whoa oh whoa
Expression of emotion, possibly a cry for help or desperation
Guess I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all
Choosing emotional pain over numbness
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
It's late, feeling isolated again, and urgently needing the person
And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk and I need you now
Breaking the promise once more while being inebriated and needing the person
And I don't know how I can do without, I just need you now
Reiterating the inability to cope without the person's presence
I just need you now
Expressing the immediate need for the person
Oh baby I need you now ooh ooh
Repeating the urgent plea for the person's presence
