Lyrics
Hey, yeah, oh
Greeting or expression of excitement
In the morning I get out of bed
Describing the start of the day, leaving bed
Another night I couldn't get you out of my head
Reflecting on a night dominated by thoughts of someone
Your face is all I see
Emphasizing a strong focus on the person's face
I just can't wait till you're next to me
Anticipation and eagerness for the person's presence
On the street where I first met you
Recalling the location where the speaker first met the person
Never thought I'd admire this view
Expressing surprise or admiration for the view
There's a spring sneaking into my step
Suggesting a joyful and energetic mood
I'm blushing and I haven't even seen you yet
Physical and emotional reactions to the presence of the person
And you, you did nothing but sit there and smile
Noting the person's passive yet charming behavior
And I, I couldn't help but stare
Describing the speaker's captivation with the person
The grin that you bring to my lips is like that of a child
Comparing the person's effect to the innocence of a child
You are my only one
Declaring the person as the only romantic interest
And I know it might sound dumb
Acknowledging the potential simplicity of the sentiment
But you are all I think I'll ever need
Affirming the person as a complete and sole need
This one could be meant to be
Suggesting a strong connection or destiny with the person
You've got that beautiful mind
Praising the person's intelligence
To match your beautiful face
Highlighting both physical and intellectual attraction
You light the flame in my eye and leave me without a trace
Metaphorically describing the person's impact on the speaker
And you, you did nothing but sit there and smile
Reiterating the person's charming and passive demeanor
And I, I couldn't help but stare
Recounting the speaker's continued fascination with the person
For a while
Emphasizing a prolonged period of admiration
At your hair
Specific attention to the person's hair
That smile that shone
Describing the person's smile with a simile
Like the summer moon at night
Comparing the brightness of the smile to the summer moon
Oh
Expressing emotion or emphasis
You are my only one
Reiterating the person as the only romantic interest
Oh, since you came into my world
Highlighting the positive impact of the person's entrance
I've known there's not one other girl
Asserting the person's unique significance
Who'll show me she can even try to be my only one
Emphasizing the exclusivity of the romantic connection
Oh, two lovely lonely ones were we
Reflecting on a past state of being "lovely lonely ones"
But now I know we'll never be that way again
Realization that the past state is irrevocable
Please don't leave me behind
Pleading not to be abandoned or left behind
Please don't leave me behind
Repetition of the plea for emotional connection
You are my only one
Reaffirming the person as the only romantic interest
Oh, since you came into my world
Recalling the positive impact of the person's entrance
I've known there's not one other girl
Reasserting the person's unique significance
Who'll show me that she can even try to be my only one
Encouraging the person to demonstrate commitment
Oh, two lovely lonely ones were we
Recalling the past state of being "lovely lonely ones"
But now I know we'll never be that way again
Acceptance of the irreversible change
