Lyrics
Why can’t I love you
Expressing frustration or difficulty in loving someone.
In the way that I want to
Desire to express love in a specific way but facing obstacles.
Maybe it’s something
Uncertainty about the reason behind the challenges in love.
Or maybe it’s nothing
Considering the possibility that the challenges might have no specific cause.
Why can’t I hold you?
Questioning the inability to physically embrace the person.
Some nights I get cold too
Feeling emotionally distant or cold on certain nights.
Before I was falling
Reflecting on a past state of falling in love.
But now I feel nothing
Current emotional numbness or lack of feelings.
1, 2, 3
Counting down, possibly indicating a need for a pause or break.
I need a second to breathe
Expressing the necessity for a moment of respite or relaxation.
3, 2, 1
Counting down again, emphasizing the need for a break.
Don’t say you’re giving up
Encouraging the partner not to give up on the relationship.
Run through the motions
Engaging in routine actions without genuine emotion.
In the spur of the moment
Acting impulsively in the heat of the moment.
But I’m hoping you’re hoping
Expressing hope that the partner shares similar hopes.
'Cause I’m still on your side
Stating loyalty and support despite disagreements.
I don’t care who was right
Indifference to who was right in a disagreement, prioritizing the relationship.
1, 2, 3
Counting down again, reinforcing the need for a pause or break.
I need a second to breathe
Reiterating the need for a moment to gather thoughts or emotions.
3, 2, 1
Counting down once more, emphasizing urgency in taking a break.
Don’t say you’re giving up on
Encouraging the partner not to give up on the relationship.
On us
Emphasizing the importance of the relationship.
On us
Repetition for emphasis on the unity of the couple.
On us
Repetition, underscoring the importance of the relationship.
