Our Night Alone
Yearning Echoes: A Love Unspoken in WinterHaven's 'Our Night Alone'
Lyrics
It's a summer night and I'm dying just to be your new plaything
Expressing a desire to be a significant part of someone's life during a summer night.
I'd do anything to be your last thought as you fall asleep
Willingness to be the last thought on the person's mind before they fall asleep.
Go and dream of me
Encouraging the person to dream about the speaker.
You close your eyes to hide away because you know that
Person closes their eyes to avoid the speaker's scrutiny.
I see the way you glance around when you're with me
Noticing the person's nervous glances when together.
Finding escape from the places that you'll be
Person seeks escape from anticipated situations.
Pushing in time with the pulse of my heartbeat
Describing a connection between actions and the speaker's heartbeat.
I'm sick and tired of waiting
Frustration about waiting for something.
Alone in my bed my hands all curled from pulling my own strings
Feeling lonely and controlled, possibly in a relationship.
I've tried everything from flowers, heartfelt gifts, and diamond rings
Attempted gestures like flowers and gifts to win affection.
I hope you go and dream of me
Reiteration of the hope that the person dreams about the speaker.
You close your eyes to hide away because you know that
Person hides their eyes to avoid confrontation.
I see the way you glance around when you're with me
Observing the person's behavior when together.
Finding escape from the places that you'll be
Seeking escapism from anticipated future locations.
Pushing in time with the pulse of my heartbeat
Linking actions to the rhythm of the speaker's heartbeat.
I'm sick and tired of waiting
Expressing impatience and frustration.
Floating in my head are all the things I should've said to you
Regret for unspoken words and a desire for reciprocation.
So you'd want me too, I'd do anything that you would have me do
Willingness to do anything to be desired by the person.
If you take my words as true
Asking the person to believe in the speaker's words.
You close your eyes to hideaway because you know that
Repetition of the person closing their eyes to avoid confrontation.
I see the way you glance around when you're with me
Observing the person's behavior when together.
Finding escape from the places that you'll be
Desire to escape from anticipated future places.
Pushing in time with the pulse of my heartbeat
Connecting actions to the speaker's heartbeat.
I'm sick and tired of waiting
Continued frustration and impatience.
Will this ever be anything to you will it ever be anything at all
Questioning the significance of the speaker's feelings to the person.
Does it even matter if you try to stop momentum of my fall
Wondering if efforts matter in stopping a negative outcome.
Will this ever be anything to you it'll never be anything
Doubting the importance of the speaker's feelings to the person.
I see the way you glance around when you're with me
Reiteration of observing the person's behavior.
Finding escape from the places that you'll be
Seeking escapism from anticipated future places.
Pushing in time with the pulse of my heartbeat
Linking actions to the speaker's heartbeat.
I'm sick and tired of waiting
Expressing ongoing impatience and frustration.
I see the way you glance around when you're with me
Reiteration of observing the person's behavior.
Finding escape from the places that you'll be
Seeking escapism from anticipated future places.
Pushing in time with the pulse of my heartbeat
Linking actions to the speaker's heartbeat.
I'm sick and tired of waiting
Continued frustration and impatience.
