Lyrics
Another night has passed us by since you gave me your last kiss
Expressing the passage of time since the last kiss and the emotional impact it had.
It broke my heart to hear you say my love you wouldn’t miss
Conveying heartbreak caused by hearing the declaration that the love won't be missed.
You thought that it was best we part and that I wasn’t worth your time
Acknowledging a decision to part ways, questioning personal worth, and deeming the relationship not worth the time.
If you don’t want me in your dreams then you stay out of mine
Asserting the desire for mutual exclusion from each other's dreams as a form of separation.
Some nights I get lucky when my thoughts aren’t fixed on you
Describing occasional relief from obsessive thoughts about the person.
But other times I wake up tired and I don’t know what to do
Expressing confusion and fatigue when thoughts are dominated by the person.
It’s like a curse you put me but I bet you’re sleeping fine
Perceiving the relationship as a curse impacting sleep while suspecting the other's peaceful rest.
If you don’t want me in your dreams then you stay out of mine
Reiterating the wish for the other person to stay out of dreams for better emotional well-being.
If you don’t want me in your dreams baby that’s just fine
Accepting the idea that the person doesn't want to appear in dreams, expressing understanding.
I don’t know how I let you down I guess I was blind
Admitting confusion about how the person was let down, possibly due to one's own blindness to the situation.
I’ll try my best not to think of you so we can both make it through the night
Committing to avoiding thoughts of the person to facilitate a better night for both.
But if you don’t want me in your dreams then you stay out of mine
Reiterating the desire for the other person to stay out of dreams for emotional peace.
I woke up mad this morning once again I’ve been robbed
Expressing anger upon waking, feeling robbed of peace due to a dream involving the person.
I dreamt of you while sleeping showed up late on the job
Detailing a dream where the person appears, causing lateness for work.
You looked so sweet looking back at me but you never were that kind
Contrasting the sweet appearance in the dream with the acknowledgment that the person was never truly kind.
If you don’t want me in your dreams then you stay out of mine
Reiterating the desire for the person to stay out of dreams to avoid emotional disturbance.
If you don’t want me in your dreams baby that’s just fine
Reaffirming acceptance of the person's desire not to be in dreams, expressing understanding.
I don’t know how I let you down I guess I was blind
Reflecting on personal shortcomings and the impact on the relationship.
I’ll try my best not to think of you so we can both make it through the night
Committing to avoiding thoughts of the person for mutual well-being throughout the night.
But if you don’t want me in your dreams then you stay out of mine
Reiterating the desire for the person to stay out of dreams for emotional peace.
