I Know It's Late, But Here It Is
Late-Night Melodies: Rediscovering Love in the City Lights
Lyrics
I bit my lip today
I experienced emotional pain or regret today.
I was singing out your name
I expressed or called out your name through singing.
Before it slipped away
Before the memory or feeling faded away.
It was finally making sense
Things started to make sense or become clear.
It's like you're still right here
Even though you're not physically present, it feels like you are.
As I'm speaking out the melody
I express my thoughts through a melody.
That holds me down
The melody grounds me and provides stability.
Plants my feet back on the ground
It gives me a sense of security and brings me back to reality.
I've seen it all today
I've had a full range of experiences today.
I've been driving through the city
I've been driving around the city.
Then I saw this place
I came across a place that reminded me of you.
That made me think of you
The place triggered thoughts of you in my mind.
Well not the place itself
Not the place itself, but the memories associated with it.
But the memories
Reflecting on the memories I had hoped to create with you.
I'd hope to make
Anticipating shared laughter and experiences.
With you someday
Hoping to create those memories with you someday.
The way our laughter
Imagining the joyous sound of our laughter filling a space.
Might fill those four walls
Envisioning the impact of our laughter within four walls.
I know that I might be
Acknowledging that I may be too late in realizing these aspirations.
Way too late
Expressing a sense of potential regret or missed opportunities.
I saw you standing there
Witnessing you in a moment, standing and shining in the darkness.
It was dark but your were shining
Despite the dark surroundings, your presence stood out.
I couldn't find the air
Feeling breathless or overwhelmed in your presence.
I nearly died while you were smiling
Experiencing intense emotions while seeing your smile.
How you looked at me
Describing the way you looked at me.
It was all I've ever wanted
Expressing that your gaze fulfilled my deepest desires.
And I want it, want it, want it more
Expressing a strong desire for what was experienced.
I want it, want it, want it more
Reiterating the intense desire for the experienced connection.
I know that I might be
Repeating the acknowledgment of potential lateness.
Way too late
Reiterating the sense of potential regret or missed chances.
I know that I might be
Expressing a realization of being potentially too late.
Way too late
Repeating the acknowledgment of potential lateness.
I saw you standing there
Recalling a moment of seeing you standing and shining.
It was dark but your were shining
Despite the darkness, your presence stood out.
I couldn't find the air
Feeling breathless or overwhelmed in your presence.
I nearly died while you were smiling
Experiencing intense emotions while seeing your smile.
How you looked at me
Describing the way you looked at me.
It was all I've ever wanted
Expressing that your gaze fulfilled my deepest desires.
And I want it, want it, want it more
Reiterating the intense desire for what was experienced.
I want it, want it, want it more with you
Reiterating the intense desire for the experienced connection.
