Called out Your Name
Yearning Dreams and Lost Love: "Called out Your Name" Meaning Explored
Lyrics
Called out your name while I was sleeping
Expressing an attempt to connect with someone by calling their name in a dream or subconscious state.
And I couldn't explain, I could not erase it
Feeling unable to provide a satisfactory explanation for calling out the person's name and being unable to forget it.
I toss and turn, I get no relief
Experiencing inner turmoil and restlessness without finding any relief.
While somebody else lays there with me
Being distressed by the presence of someone else in a shared space or relationship.
Holding onto another man, well, I couldn't help myself
Acknowledging a struggle to resist emotional attachment or connection with another person.
Holding on for tomorrow night, where in dreams, I've got you
Anticipating a future moment in dreams where the desired person is present.
Oh, I've got you
Repeatedly affirming the feeling of having the person in dreams or thoughts.
I've got you
-I've got you
-Called out your name, did you hear me say it?
Repeating the act of calling out the person's name and questioning if they heard it.
We had so much time, but you chose to waste it
Reflecting on the wasted time in the past relationship.
Called out your name inside of a dream
Recalling a dream where the person's name was called, emphasizing a subconscious connection.
Now my love is all gone, I'm setting you free
Expressing the loss of love and the decision to let go of the person.
Holding onto another man, well, I couldn't help myself
Continuing to grapple with emotional attachment to another person despite efforts to resist.
Holding on for tomorrow night, where in dreams, I've got
Looking forward to a future moment in dreams where the desired person is present (continuation of line 7).
There is no use
Acknowledging the futility of attempting to forget the person.
In trying to forget you
Emphasizing the difficulty of moving on from the person and letting go.
I call out your name
Repeating the act of calling out the person's name as a persistent expression of longing or connection.
Call out your name
-Call out your name
-Call out your name
-Oh, I've got you

Oh, I've got you
