Lyrics
It's about damn time that I left the past behind
Expressing the decision to move on from the past.
I was hoping it'd last but I'm still stuck in your laugh and crying
Reflecting on a hope for a lasting connection but still affected by memories of laughter and tears.
I can't sleep alone without you there
Highlighting difficulty sleeping alone without the presence of a significant other.
And I can't think about the times we shared
Unable to stop thinking about shared experiences.
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Repetition for emotional emphasis.
Met you the first time, I said you still look bad on your worst nights
Recalling the first encounter and playfully commenting on appearance.
I thought it's funny but you said it's my worst line
Sharing a humorous exchange that is now remembered as a significant moment.
And now I'm caught up thinking 'bout you for the last time
Feeling emotionally entangled with thoughts of the person for the final time.
And all my friends say I'm wasting time
Receiving advice from friends about time management.
But I don't think that I'll be alright
Expressing doubt about recovering from the emotional impact of the relationship.
Cause I can't sleep alone without you there
Reiterating the difficulty of sleeping alone without the presence of the significant other.
And I can't think about the times we shared
Continued struggle with thoughts of shared moments.
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Repetition for emotional emphasis.
Staring at the wall for hours
Describing a period of intense contemplation, possibly related to the relationship.
Maybe I'll get in the shower
Considering mundane activities as a distraction.
It'll never be as good as ours were
Comparing current experiences to the past and finding them lacking.
So what's the point
Expressing a sense of futility or purposelessness.
Looking at the stars for hours
Engaging in star-gazing, possibly seeking inspiration or guidance.
Hoping it'll give me power
Hoping for a positive impact from celestial observation.
To help me not feel so sour
Wishing for a remedy to alleviate emotional distress.
I'm at a loss for joy
Expressing a feeling of being without joy.
Alone without you there
Reiterating the challenge of being alone without the significant other.
And I can't think about the times we shared
Continued difficulty in diverting thoughts from shared moments.
Cause I can't sleep alone without you there
Reiterating the challenge of sleeping alone without the significant other.
And I can't think about the times we shared
Continued struggle with thoughts of shared moments.
Cause I can't sleep alone without you there
Emphasizing the ongoing difficulty of sleeping alone without the significant other.
And I can't think about the times we shared
Reiterating the challenge of thinking about shared moments.
