Lyrics
Tell me have you ever wanted
Talking about intense desire for someone
Someone so much it hurts?
Feeling a deep emotional pain because of this desire
Your lips keep trying to speak
Wanting to express oneself verbally but struggling
But you just can't find the words
Difficulty finding the right words to convey feelings
Well I had this dream once
Recalling a dream once held
I held it in my hands
Experienced this dream vividly
She was the purest beauty
Describing someone exceptionally beautiful
But not the common kind
Uncommon beauty, not typical or ordinary
She had a way about her
Unique quality that brings vitality
That made you feel alive
Her presence made life feel vibrant
And for a moment
A moment of captivation and pause in time
You made the world stand still
Feeling of complete control or ownership over the night
Yeah we owned the night
Emphasizing the sense of dominance over the night
You had me dim the lights
Adjusting the ambiance for intimacy
You danced just like a child
Dancing with innocence and joy
The wine spilled on your dress
Spillage of wine on clothing resulting in a smile
And all you did was smile
Imperfect situations still being perceived as perfect
Yeah, it was perfect
Treasuring a perfect memory in one's mind
I hold it in my mind
Reflection on the shared ownership of the night
Yeah, we owned the night
Reiterating the sense of owning the night
When the summer rolls around
Referencing a particular season
And the sun starts sinking down
Describing the time of day
I still remember you
Recollection of the person during this time
Oh, I remember you
Memory of the person still vivid
And I wonder where you are
Curiosity about the person's current whereabouts
Are you looking at those
Wondering if the person is observing the same stars
Same stars again?
Questioning if they recall a past shared experience
Do you remember when?
Reflecting on a past shared memory
We woke under a blanket
Describing an intimate moment under covers
All tangled up in skin
Physical closeness and entanglement
Not knowing in that moment
Unaware that it was the last shared moment
We'd never speak again
A perfect moment despite its finality
But it was perfect
A memory never to be forgotten
I never will forget
Emphasizing the ownership of the night
When we owned the night
Reiteration of the sense of owning the night
Yeah, we owned the night
Reaffirming the dominance over the night
Oh oh woah oh
(Repetition for emphasis, no specific additional meaning)
Oh oh woah oh
-Oh oh woah oh
-Oh oh woah oh
