In the Morning
Yearning in Daylight: Embracing Love's Absence
Lyrics
I miss you most in the morning
I feel the strongest sense of longing for you early in the day.
Just before the break of day
Especially right before the dawn.
Half awake I turn to take you in my arms
When I am partially awake, I yearn to hold you close.
Suddenly I'm reminded you've gone away
However, the reality hits me that you are no longer with me.
I miss you most in the evening
The yearning for you is also intense in the evening.
Just before I lay down to sleep
Especially just before I go to sleep.
In the moments we're apart
During the times we are apart,
I start to ask this aching heart
My heart aches, and I question whether you could be mine forever.
If you ever might be all mine to keep
Reflecting on the possibility of having you for keeps.
In the morning light everything would be alright
The morning light represents a hopeful scenario where everything is okay if you were with me.
If you were here with me
If you were present, things would be better.
Every time that you're around be it alone or in a crowd
Whenever you are around, whether alone or in a crowd,
You're the only one I see
You are the only one I notice.
In the evening time in the middle of the night
This feeling persists in the evening, in the middle of the night, and even at noontime.
Even at noontime too
At any time of the day, I just want to be close to you.
Anyhow and anyway on any ordinary day
Regardless of the circumstances on any ordinary day,
I just wanna be next to you
I desire to be next to you.
I miss you most when I'm dreaming
The yearning is also present when I'm dreaming of the life we could have together.
Of the life we might one day see
Imagining the future with you.
When It comes to me and you
Believing that we can make it through.
I know that I can make it through
Confident that we can overcome challenges as long as you return to me.
So long as you can come back to me
Reiterating the importance of your return to maintaining hope.
In the morning light everything would be alright
Similar to the earlier mention, the morning holds the promise of everything being alright if you were here.
If you were here with me
Reaffirming that the presence of the person would bring contentment.
Every time that you're around be it alone or in a crowd
Emphasizing that you are the sole focus whenever you are around.
You're the only one I see
Repeating the sentiment that the person is the only one noticed.
In the evening time in the middle of the night
Expressing the same yearning in the evening, in the middle of the night, and even at noontime.
Even at noontime too
The desire to be close remains constant throughout the day.
Anyhow and anyway on any ordinary day
Regardless of circumstances on any ordinary day, the longing to be near persists.
I just wanna be next to you
Reiterating the strong desire to be close to the person.
I just can't wait to see you again
Expressing eagerness and anticipation to see the person again.
I just can't wait to see you again
Repeating the anticipation of seeing the person again.
I just can't wait to see you again
Further emphasizing the eagerness to reunite.
I miss you most in the morning
A repetition of the strongest yearning being in the morning.
Just before the break of day
Reiterating the intense longing just before the break of day.
Half awake I turn to take you in my arms
Recalling the half-awake moments where I wish to hold you, only to be reminded of your absence.
Suddenly I'm reminded you've gone away
Once again, the abrupt realization that you are no longer with me.
