Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But it grew from a simple crush, crush, crush, crush
Being without you girl, I was all messed up, up, up, up
When you walked out, said that you'd had enough-nough-nough-nough
Been a fool, girl I know
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time, you'll change your mind
Because I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more
Oh I stay up til you're next to me
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Remember telling my boys that I'd never fall in love, love, love, love
You used to think I'd never find a girl I could trust, trust, trust, trust
And then you walked into my life and it was all about us, us, us, us
But now I'm sitting here thinking I messed the whole thing up, up, up, up
Been a fool (fool), girl I know (know)
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time (time), you'll change your mind (mind)
Now looking back I wish I could rewind
Because I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh I stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before (Because it)
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah (Ah), feels like insomnia ah ah
Ah, I just can't go to sleep
Cause it feels like I've fallen for you
It's getting way too deep
And I know that it's love because
I can't sleep til you're next to me
No I can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh I stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, feels like insomnia ah ah
In "Insomnia," Craig David describes how he never thought he would fall in love but ended up falling for someone, and his crush grew into something more. However, when she walked out of his life, he was "all messed up" and began to regret his actions. He acknowledges that he didn't expect things to turn out this way and hopes she will change her mind. He admits that he struggles to sleep and live without her, and that his house no longer feels like it did before. Despite knowing that his feelings are intense, he cannot help but fall deeper for her each day.
The lyrics showcase the emotional turmoil one can experience after falling in love with someone and losing them. The song's title "Insomnia" is a metaphor for the way love can consume someone's thoughts and make it difficult for them to rest or sleep. The repetition of "feels like insomnia" emphasizes the intensity of his feelings and how they are impacting his day-to-day life. Additionally, the use of repetition in the song highlights the ongoing cycle of regret he experiences as he tries to move on from the relationship.
In summary, "Insomnia" is a relatable song that captures the confusion and pain associated with falling deeply in love, only to have it disappear suddenly. Craig David's powerful vocals and the song's catchy rhythm and melody make it a memorable hit among fans.
