Endless Nights, Endearing Desires: Unraveling the Emotions in Megan Owen's 'her'
Lyrics
My arms are reaching out but she doesn't turn around
Expressing a desire to connect, but she is not responsive or attentive.
So here I lay, waiting
Waiting patiently in anticipation.
She said "don't go to bed" so I stay awake for three whole nights
Following her advice not to sleep, staying awake for three nights to hear her talk.
Just to listen to her talk about the things she likes
Showing dedication by actively listening to her interests.
I wanna know the places she goes when she can't think
Expressing curiosity about her thoughts during challenging times.
I wanna be the one on her mind as she falls asleep
Aspiring to be a significant presence in her thoughts before sleep.
Cause she's on mine all the time, I don't get no relief
Indicating constant preoccupation with thoughts of her.
Every time we say goodbye I'm waiting for the next time we meet
Anticipating the next meeting eagerly after every farewell.
She's oblivious to the way time stops when she opens her mouth
Noting how time seems to pause when she speaks, highlighting her impact.
But I could spend hours hearing her voice
Expressing a deep appreciation for the sound of her voice.
And wasted time isn't such a loss when you meet someone who makes you
Valuing time spent with someone who makes life feel fulfilling.
Feel like you're enough
Feeling complete and valued in the presence of this person.
I feel like I'm enough
Reiterating a sense of self-worth and completeness.
Sit with me for a moment
Inviting her to share a moment together.
I forgot to breathe
Acknowledging being captivated to the point of forgetting to breathe.
Watching from the window
Observing her from a distance, focusing solely on her.
You're all that I see
Stating that she is the primary focus, the center of attention.
I wanna know the places she goes when she can't think
Repeating the desire to understand her thoughts during challenging moments.
I wanna be the one on her mind as she falls asleep
Reiterating the wish to be the last thought before she falls asleep.
Cause she's on mine all the time, I don't get no relief
Emphasizing the constant preoccupation with thoughts of her.
Every time we say goodbye I'm waiting for the next time we meet
Expressing eagerness for the next meeting, highlighting the anticipation.
