A whole conundrum, it wasn’t supposed to be on the record. I almost scratched it off at the last minute but some people whose opinions' mattered a lot to me convinced me to keep it. But at the core, the song is about losing love. The most straightforward kind of love song here.
lyrics
[Verse 1]
Waking up was the same again
You were in my dreams
We were still in love
Waking up, same old pain again
Look around the room
See my life’s not the same anymore
[Verse 2]
Waking up, I remember that
You are not the girl
That you are in those dreams
Where your flaws and the past dissolve
Into something better than we were
[Chorus]
I loved you so
Damn much you know
All dreams must fade
All dreams must go
[Verse 3]
Waking up, and the world out there
Is already out and about
Every minute I have passed alone
You have also passed somewhere else
[Chorus x2]
I loved you so
Damn much you know
All dreams must fade
All dreams must go
