Meet Again
Dreams of Reunion: Joanne Bird's 'Meet Again' Unveils Bittersweet Longing
Lyrics
Oh I wish I was stuck in your head
Expressing a desire to be on someone's mind constantly
Like you are in mine
Acknowledging that the other person occupies the speaker's thoughts
Oh I wish I was there
Expressing a wish to be physically present with the other person
And in my dreams, when we fly
Referring to dreams where the speaker and the other person are flying together
We fly high, and it feels so right
Describing the positive and uplifting feeling experienced in the dreams
In my dreams, when we fly
Reiteration of the joyful experience in dreams when flying together
And I want you to know, it's okay
Assuring the other person that it's acceptable for the speaker to feel this way
That I feel this way
Acknowledging and accepting the emotions felt for the other person
It is keeping me sane
Stating that these emotions are a source of mental stability for the speaker
Cause our time, only short, was enough
Reflecting on the brevity of their time together but finding it sufficient
To fill my dreams
Expressing that the memories from their short time together fill the speaker's dreams
With memories and other stuff
Mentioning that these dreams are filled with memories and other thoughts
When I'm lying in my bed
Describing a moment of contemplation in bed about the other person
And thinking about you
Reflecting on thoughts about the other person while lying down
And the bit of fun we had
Recalling a past enjoyable experience with the other person
Oh you wanna know the truth
Stating a willingness to share the truth about feelings
I'm fine with just the thought
Expressing contentment with the thought of the other person
That possibly one day
Anticipating a potential future reunion with the other person
We'll meet again
Expressing hope and optimism about meeting again
Oh I've seen it myself, you are happy
Observing the other person's happiness with their current situation
With what you have
Referencing a statement made by the other person about contentment
Oh you said it yourself
Deciding not to be naive and choosing to smile and be grateful
So I won't be a fool, I will smile
Committing to maintaining a positive attitude and gratitude
And be grateful too
Reiterating the decision not to act foolishly and to be thankful
No I won't be a fool
Affirming the speaker's commitment to avoid being foolish in their emotions
When I'm lying in my bed
Repeating the scenario of lying in bed and thinking about the other person
And thinking about you
Revisiting thoughts about the other person and past enjoyable moments
And the bit of fun we had
Recalling a bit of fun shared with the other person
Oh you wanna know the truth
Reiterating a willingness to share the truth about feelings
I'm fine with just the thought
Expressing contentment with the thought of the other person
That possibly one day
Repeating the anticipation and hope for a future meeting
We'll meet again
Concluding with the optimistic outlook that they will meet again
