Overall Meaning

The lyrics in Dean Robert's song "Morning" express a sense of confusion, longing, and fear of losing someone. The singer reflects on a night spent with someone else, but they can't help but compare that person to the one they truly desire. The lines are blurry, and the singer can't believe that it wasn't their desired person who they spent the night with. They acknowledge that they have built walls around themselves, and they wonder if they should tear them down to let the desired person in. However, they are scared of the possibility of being rejected and let go. The singer realizes that playing games is futile and regrets not realizing earlier that they had the capability to win and be with the person they need, especially in times when they are feeling low. They express their uncertainty about the desired person's feelings and actions, questioning if they would want to know about their whereabouts and other relationships. Despite the possibility of seeking other lovers, the singer acknowledges that they only need the desired person. They cope with their emotions by drowning themselves in bars downtown, feeling numb in the absence of the desired person. The only doubt they have is whether the desired person will still be there in the morning when they close their eyes. The singer wants to take a step back and make it clear to the desired person that they want them and have always wanted them. They reflect on the fact that they have learned valuable lessons with the desired person and that being just friends wouldn't work for them. The singer's ultimate hope is to be the one the desired person has always wanted next to them. The fear of not seeing the sun without the desired person's presence lingers, as they have tried to replace the desired person with others without success. They express their inability to give themselves to anyone else but the desired person, emphasizing their need for them.
