The Days Go By Oh So Slow Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Venne 

Cover art for The Days Go By Oh So Slow lyrics by Nightmare Of You

Someone trying to find a way to get someone else to be with them. 'Take a seat and catch your breath'- finding an excuse to get them to sit down next to them, just so that they're nearby. 'Your blonde hair and gaping eyes'- flattery. '[...] I can relate to that'- you should be with me, because I understand you. 'In the grass [...] When you sleep alone the days go oh so slow'- Is this something he's imagining and wants to happen, or something that did happen once that he wants back? 'If you feel like your heart's dried up'- Has she made an excuse about why she can't be with him, and he's trying to get round it?

I love this song. I have no real connection with what I perceive to be the meaning, but I love it.
