Lyrics

i can't sleep when you're gone

I experience difficulty sleeping when you are not present.

it's never warm when you're away

The absence of your presence makes it feel emotionally cold.

plus there's a million different ways to lay

There are numerous ways to express love and intimacy.


and I can't stay up too long

I can't stay awake for extended periods.

but i can't stay up too late

There is a limit to how late I can stay awake.

even though you may be missing

Despite your absence, there's a sense of longing or yearning.

well your smell is just all over the place

Your scent is a lingering presence in various spaces.


babe you are love

An affirmation that the person is a source of love.


i can't sleep when you're gone

Reiteration of difficulty sleeping in your absence.

it's one am if you're in LA

Referencing a specific time (1 am) in Los Angeles, indicating a connection across distances.

it's fine if you don't want it this way

Acceptance if the other person doesn't desire the current situation.


we could have a couple kids

Imagining a future together with the possibility of having children.

i could quit my job by june

Expressing a willingness to make sacrifices for the relationship, such as leaving a job.

we could move out to the suburbs

Consideration of moving to a suburban environment for more space.

maybe we would have some more room

Speculation about having a larger living space in the suburbs.


babe you are love

Reiteration of the significant role of the person as a source of love.

babe you are love

Reaffirmation of the person's importance as a source of love.
