Living Room, NY
Restless Yearning: A Musical Odyssey in Living Room, NY
Lyrics
I want to feel you restless
I desire to sense your unease or agitation
I want to wake up from it
I wish to escape from that feeling
I want to see you stare at ceilings until you fall back to sleep
I want to witness you gazing at ceilings until you drift back into sleep
I want to feel you restless
Reiteration of the desire to feel your restlessness
I want to wake up from it
Reiteration of the desire to wake up from a restless state
I want to see you stare at ceilings until you fall back to sleep
Reiteration of wanting to observe you staring at ceilings before falling asleep
In the waiting room
Expressing being in a waiting room
In the waiting room
-In the waiting room
-It's a little stuffy in here
Commenting on the atmosphere, suggesting discomfort in the waiting room
I want to wring my hands in open elevators
Expressing a desire to feel nervous or anxious in certain situations
A shaky finger I am pushing the door open button
Describing a physical action of pressing an elevator door open button with a shaky finger
I want to feel the urge to press against my neighbors while I keep you in my mind
Expressing a desire to be close to someone mentally while physically interacting with others
I keep you in my mind all of the time here
Emphasizing the constant presence of someone in the mind
In the waiting room
Repeating the experience of being in a waiting room
In the waiting room
-In the waiting room
-One is moving one is standing
Describing the varied states of people in the waiting room
In the waiting room
Reiteration of being in the waiting room
In the waiting room
-In the waiting room
-Wonder where we'll land
Expressing uncertainty about the future and where it may lead
Will we fall straight into routine
Pondering whether life will become routine or if there will be temporary separation
Or we'll be strangers for a week, stir-crazy, lazy until I leave again
Imagining potential feelings of restlessness or idleness until departure
Then I jump out of my skin until you tell me where I am
Feeling a sense of disorientation until someone clarifies the location
Living Room, NY
Referring to a specific place, "Living Room, NY"
Living Room, NY
Expressing a strong desire to hear a particular phrase in the dark
I'll give an arm just to hear you in the dark saying, "Living Room, NY"
-So I'll fold the world to be there tonight
Expressing a willingness to reshape one's world to be present at a particular place
Because I want to fall asleep on your time
Desiring to synchronize sleep patterns with someone else
I want to fall asleep where you lie
Expressing a desire to sleep close to a loved one
I want to fall asleep with you shifting by my side
-I want to fall asleep where you lie
-I want to fall asleep with you, I
Repetition of the desire to fall asleep with the loved one
With you, I
-With you, I
-I miss you, I
Expressing a sense of longing and missing someone
