I can feel you waitin' for me
When the sun retreats to the hills and I
Below the blanket of a burnin' sky
Wrap myself within

Embraced by dead leaves as the rain leaves
Trails of black down my face, and I
Creep through the twilight to that hidden place
Beyond the lonely

I'll meet you, tonight in the whispers when no one's around
Nothing can stop us now
Tonight in the whispers where we won't be found
Nothing can stop us now

Well, I can feel you dreamin' of me
And the time when our steps are retraced and I
Creep through the twilight to that hidden place
Beyond the lonely

I'll meet you, tonight in the whispers when no one's around
Nothing can stop us now
Tonight in the whispers where we won't be found
Nothing can stop us now

Tonight in the whispers when no one's around
Nothing can stop us now
Tonight in the whispers where we won't be found
Nothing can stop us

Well, I can feel you dreamin' of me
Well, I can feel you dreamin'
Well, I can feel you dreamin' of me
Beneath a dream, beneath a dream

Well, I can feel you dreamin' of me
Well, I can feel you dreamin'
Well, I can feel you dreamin' of me
Lost in a dream, lost in a dream

Tonight, in the whispers when no one's around
Nothing can stop us now
Tonight in the whispers where we won't be found
Nothing can stop us now

Tonight, in the whispers when no one's around
Nothing can stop us now
Tonight in the whispers where we won't be found
Nothing can stop us

    "I can feel you waiting for me as the sun retreats to the hills and I, beneath the blanket of a burning sky, wrap myself within." -- He knows as he goes to bed at sunset, that as he falls asleep, he will dream about someone.

    I just wana put a different spin on it.... What if the song is literally about the person in his dreams? It would make a lot of sense, everything being perfect, and why they won't be found.

    "I creep through the twilight to that hidden place, beyond the lonely" -- As he falls asleep at twighlight, he drifts further into a dream.

Word Alive, The
This song is def a twin to "Unfair" (a song she has been quoted as saying is about falling in love with someone who is already in a relationship) so it is presumably about the same person. Given the references to buying an apartment and not being able to see her love interest "after tonight," it's most likely that she's moving away and she'll "wait a day to break the bad news" (i.e. notifying him that she's leaving once she's already gone). And, of course, the fact that she sees in him a fellow "idealist" and "dreamer" (terms commonly given to people with the INFP personality on the Myers–Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI)) portends that she'll always be left wondering if they would've been perfect together.

Fortnight
Taylor Swift
The song 'Fortnight' by Taylor Swift and Post Malone tells a story about strong feelings, complicated relationships, and secret wishes. It talks about love, betrayal, and wanting someone who doesn't feel the same. The word 'fortnight' shows short-lived happiness and guilty pleasures, leading to sadness. It shows how messy relationships can be and the results of hiding emotions. “I was supposed to be sent away / But they forgot to come and get me,” she kickstarts the song in the first verse with lines suggesting an admission to a hospital for people with mental illnesses. She goes in the verse admitting her lover is the reason why she is like this. In the chorus, she sings about their time in love and reflects on how he has now settled with someone else. “I took the miracle move-on drug, the effects were temporary / And I love you, it’s ruining my life,” on the second verse she details her struggles to forget about him and the negative effects of her failure. “Thought of callin’ ya, but you won’t pick up / ‘Nother fortnight lost in America,” Post Malone sings in the outro.
