Lyrics
Lying doubled up on the couch
Lying in a doubled-up position on the couch
Each trying not to fall off
Both individuals trying not to fall off the couch
Making each other laugh
Making each other laugh, sharing moments of joy
You're so funny when you're falling asleep
Observing humor in the other person while they're falling asleep
Thinking you make sense when you don't
Believing that the other person is making sense even when they're not
Then we're sitting up front in the van
Sitting together in the front seats of a van
No one else sees us hold hands
Sharing a moment of intimacy by holding hands, unnoticed by others
No one else understands
Feeling that the depth of understanding between them is unique
Cuz nobody gets me the way you do
Expressing a deep level of connection, feeling understood by the other person
No one else gets me like you
Highlighting the exclusivity of the connection and understanding
Empty hours float on by
Passing of time that feels empty or devoid of meaning
Feel so happy when it's you and I
Feeling joy and contentment specifically when together
Does anyone else know you like me?
Questioning if anyone else understands the person as intimately as they do
And I'm holding my head up high
Trying to maintain composure and not show sadness or vulnerability
Trying my best not to cry
Struggling to avoid crying
Flicking the hurt off my shoulders
Shaking off emotional pain or burden
Some days there's nothing you can do
Some days feeling helpless despite efforts
Some days all I want is you
Expressing a strong desire for the other person on certain days
And I think of us high in the dunes
Imagining a romantic or memorable moment together
soaked in the warmth of the sand
Recalling warmth and closeness experienced together
Time slipping through our hands
Feeling time slipping away, unable to hold onto moments
So many things I could say
Having many things to express but choosing not to
Nothing else I need to say
Feeling that there's nothing else that needs to be said
Empty hours roll on by
Passage of empty or unfulfilling time continuing
Feel so happy when it’s you and I
Experiencing happiness specifically when together
Does anyone else know you like me
Questioning if anyone else knows the person as deeply as they do
Nobody knows me like you
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the understanding between them
