Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
Everybody in this place can up and move away
For all I care this town's already dead and empty
I'm told that I'm a victim of obsession
That's what my friends say
Oh I'm a fool for having ever let her tempt me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She glances over but she keeps on walking down the street
All I can do is hope that she is thinking of me
If I could blink, if I could breathe, if I could get my legs to move
Well this could be the day I get this girl to love me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She had turned
From a sound
Well I must have cried out loud
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
If I could blink, if I could breathe, if I could get my legs to move
Well this could be the day I get this girl to love me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She had turned
From a sound
Well I must have cried out loud
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
For all I care this town's already dead and empty
I'm told that I'm a victim of obsession
That's what my friends say
Oh I'm a fool for having ever let her tempt me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She glances over but she keeps on walking down the street
All I can do is hope that she is thinking of me
If I could blink, if I could breathe, if I could get my legs to move
Well this could be the day I get this girl to love me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She had turned
From a sound
Well I must have cried out loud
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
If I could blink, if I could breathe, if I could get my legs to move
Well this could be the day I get this girl to love me
Well I turn pale
When she walks by
I am lost
In her eyes
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She had turned
From a sound
Well I must have cried out loud
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
She is always on my mind
