Staring at the Ceiling
Ceiling Dreams: Love's Endless Orbit
Lyrics
I've been staring at the ceiling all night
I've been contemplatively looking at the ceiling throughout the night.
Chasing after all the words I can't find
Pursuing words that elude me.
As you race through my mind
Thinking about you as you occupy my thoughts.
And time drags on and on and on
Time seems to pass slowly and endlessly.
I could tell you you're my favorite person
Expressing affection by saying you are my favorite person.
And every moment that we share feels perfect
Highlighting the perfection felt in moments shared.
That just scratches the surface
Acknowledging that this expression doesn't fully convey the depth.
My search goes on and on and on
The search for words and expressions continues endlessly.
But one thing I know is true
A statement of a known truth.
No matter where I go or what I do
No matter the location or actions, a constant truth prevails.
I'd rather be staring at the ceiling with you
Expressing a preference for being with you, even if it means staring at the ceiling.
Swear I'm never leaving this room
Commitment to not leaving the current space.
As long as you've got room for two
Willingness to share the space with you.
I'll keep staring at the ceiling
Continuing to gaze at the ceiling as an expression of connection.
Lying next to you
Lying beside you and staring at the ceiling.
All I need lies between your bed sheets
The essential things lie within the intimacy of your bed sheets.
As our fingers fit together like a puzzle piece
Describing the connection between fingers as a perfect fit.
I could stay here for weeks
Expressing a desire to stay in this intimate space for an extended period.
While time drifts on and on and on
Time continues to pass.
The grass is greenest when you're by my side
Highlighting the vibrancy and beauty of life when you're present.
And when the smoke clears we're both on cloud nine
After challenges (symbolized by smoke), experiencing euphoria together.
Watching stars realign
Observing the alignment of stars, signifying positive moments.
As life floats on and on and on
Life continues to flow positively.
You mean so much more to me
Expressing the immense value you hold compared to tired expressions.
Than my old, weary brain full of tired cliches
Acknowledging the limitations of language to capture the depth of feelings.
Could ever explain
The inadequacy of words to explain the connection when it's just the two of you.
When it's just you and me
Emphasizing the unique bond when it's only you and the other person.
No distance in between
No physical or emotional distance can diminish the significance of the connection.
All the rest of the world it just seems to fade away
The world outside of this connection seems to lose importance.
