Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Could you say the same?
Could you say my name
And tell me you missed me
And love me instead
Just for the night,
I'll do what I like, ′cause
But so far its been
Something I'm into
And I′ve stayed away
From all I can say
′Cause, baby, there was nothing left to hold me from the moment
'Cause you′ve been stuck in my head
Could you say the same?
Could you say my name
And tell me you missed me and love me instead
Just for the night
I'll do what I like
And hold you until the words come out
(Mmm-mm, mm-mm)
Until the moon gives out
(Mmm-mm, mm-mm)

You've been stuck in my head
Your presence has taken over my thoughts and I can't stop thinking about you
Could you say the same?
Are you also constantly thinking about me?
Could you say my name
Do you even remember my name?
And tell me you missed me and love me instead
Express that you have longed for my presence and have strong feelings of love for me
Just for the night
Only for this temporary period of time
I'll do what I like
I will act according to my own desires and preferences
'Cause I've been afraid of it all
Because I have been scared of opening myself up to love and vulnerability
But so far it's been something I'm into
But until now, I have found it to be something that I enjoy and feel attracted to
And I've stayed away
I have kept my distance
From all I can say
From expressing all the feelings I have
'Cause, baby, there was nothing left to hold me from the moment
Because, darling, there was nothing stopping me anymore from fully embracing my emotions
And hold you until the words come out
Embrace you tightly until my true feelings can be expressed
(Mmm-mm, mm-mm)
Until the moon gives out
Until the moon ceases to exist
