Lyrics
When I start breaking down
Expressing a moment of emotional breakdown or vulnerability.
I remember that you're watching
Awareness that someone is observing or monitoring the speaker.
You know I'd give all I own away
Willingness to sacrifice or give up possessions for the return of a significant person.
To have you back One more day
Desire to have the person back for just one more day, emphasizing the longing.
You're the one I go running back to
Acknowledging a pattern of returning to a specific person in challenging times.
Just like I always do
Repetition of the tendency to go back to the same person as a familiar response.
Don't know if I'll even learn how to stay away from you
Uncertainty about the ability to break the cycle of returning to the person.
I hope I never do
Expressing a desire to never learn how to stay away, suggesting a deep emotional connection.
Once again on my own
Reiteration of being alone and self-reliant on a particular path.
The only road I've ever known
Emphasizing the familiarity and comfort of the speaker's solitary journey.
I think of you when the city sleeps
Associating thoughts of the person with moments of solitude, especially during the night.
I can only have you in my dreams
Recognition that having the person is only possible in dreams, highlighting an unattainable reality.
You're the one I go running back to
Reiteration of the recurring pattern of returning to the same person despite challenges.
Just like I always do
Confirmation of the consistent behavior of going back to the person.
Even though it's in my mind, you're still in it too
Acknowledgment that the person occupies the speaker's thoughts even if not physically present.
That's the place I go running back to
Identifying a mental or emotional space as the go-to place for seeking comfort or solace.
I try but I keep running back to you
Struggling to resist the urge to return to the person despite efforts.
You know I always play the fool
Admitting to playing a role of foolishness in the dynamic with the person.
Even though it's in my mind, you're still in it too
Reiteration of the person's lingering presence in the speaker's thoughts or imagination.
That's the place I go running back to
Confirming the identified place as the consistent retreat or return destination.
