The Way I Feel
Air Supply Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes when I just can't sleep
And you're on my mind and I'm hurting deep
At night, at night when the sun goes down
And the lights turn on and you're not around


I've been this way before
But it wasn't real
But this time I'm sure
It's the way I feel


I dream when I call your name
And I'm in a place that I can't explain


And everything you see
I can't conceal
It's the way that it is
It's the way I feel
This time I'm sure
It's the way I feel


I've been this way before
But it wasn't real
This time I'm sure
It's the way that I feel




This time I'm sure
It's the way I feel

Line by Line Meaning

Sometimes when I just can't sleep
There are situations when I am unable to sleep


And you're on my mind and I'm hurting deep
Whenever you haunt my thoughts, it causes me immense pain


At night, at night when the sun goes down
When the sun sets and darkness engulfs everything


And the lights turn on and you're not around
It becomes unbearable when I realize that you are not with me


I've been this way before
I have experienced such feelings previously


But it wasn't real
But it didn't seem like it's happening in reality


But this time I'm sure
However, this time I am positively certain about my emotions


It's the way I feel
I am indeed feeling this way


I dream when I call your name
You often appear in my dreams when I take your name


And I'm in a place that I can't explain
I reach a strange world which is beyond explanation


And everything you see
Every single thing about me


I can't conceal
I cannot hide it


It's the way that it is
It is just the way it is


This time I'm sure
I am completely certain about it this time


It's the way I feel
It is exactly the way I feel


I've been this way before
I had felt this way previously


But it wasn't real
But it didn't feel like I was for real


This time I'm sure
But now I am sure


It's the way that I feel
This is exactly how I am feeling right now


This time I'm sure
This time, I am completely sure


It's the way I feel
This is the way I truly feel
