Dreaming Alone
Dreaming Alone: Unveiling the Silent Conversations of Goodbyes and Dreams
Lyrics
Wake up
Awakening from sleep
Remembering just what she said
Recalling something she said
Memories of things that never even happened
Reflecting on non-existent memories
Run through your head
Mental images racing through the mind
I keep the shades pulled tight
Keeping the environment closed off
To let the light in
Allowing light to enter cautiously
My eyes have all been closed
Eyes closed, seeing only possibilities
Seeing only what if
Perceiving things as 'what if'
But when you said goodbye
Parting ways interpreted as a nightly farewell
Is what you meant goodnight
Goodbye signifies goodnight
'Til tomorrow
Anticipating the next meeting tomorrow
If it's me in your dreams
Desiring to be part of her dreams
I'd sleep the day away
Willing to spend the day asleep for that connection
Cause when you say goodbye
Repeating the impact of saying goodbye
What I hear is goodnight
Hearing a goodnight instead of farewell
So keep it in the night
Embracing the night as a time for connection
The fight's in the love and aftermath
Conflict exists in love and its aftermath
And me melting into you
Merging into the other person emotionally
Melting into the place you dreamt last
Becoming one with the dreams
Don't leave
Pleading not to be abandoned
The fear eats me away
Fear of being consumed by separation
The fear you're dreaming alone
Expressing the fear of dreaming alone
But when you said goodbye
Reiteration of the impact of saying goodbye
Is what you meant goodnight
Understanding goodbye as goodnight
'Til tomorrow
Expecting a reunion tomorrow
If it's me in your dreams
Desiring to be part of her dreams (repeated)
I'd sleep the day away
Willing to spend the day asleep for that connection (repeated)
Cause when you say goodbye
Repeating the impact of saying goodbye
What I hear is goodnight
Hearing a goodnight instead of farewell
So don't leave me goodnight
Requesting not to leave with a goodnight
But when you said goodbye
Reiteration of the impact of saying goodbye
Is what you mean goodnight
Understanding goodbye as goodnight
'Til tomorrow
Expecting a reunion tomorrow
Is it me in your dreams?
Possibility of being in her dreams (repeated)
I'll sleep the day away
Willing to spend the day asleep for that connection (repeated)
But when you say goodbye
Repeating the impact of saying goodbye
What I hear is goodnight
Hearing a goodnight instead of farewell
But when you,
Emphasizing the persistence of thoughts
You don't let it leave your mind
Highlighting the difficulty in letting go
