I
Kygo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're more than just a notch in my belt
A story to tell
The only thing on my mind
And it's keeping me up at night, hm
I know you're making magic somewhere
But not by yourself
That might be the reason why
It's keeping me up at night, hm
I can smell you on the pillow where you used to lay
And it's keeping me up at night
And it's keeping me up

Another night, another stranger's door
Hoping when it opens I'll see you
You

You're more than just a notch in my belt
A story to tell
The only thing on my mind
It's obvious I'm not doing well
Do you see these eyes, when have you known me to cry?
I'm just sitting here remembering how your lips taste
And it's keeping me up at night
And it's keeping me up

Another night, another stranger's door
Hoping when it opens I'll see you
You

Ooh, ooh, yeah
Ha, oh, we

Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
Wishing I could go back
To that night
To that stranger's door
Not knowing when it opened I'd see you (ho oh)
You
That I'd see you

Hey, hey
Oh, oh
See you
Baby
Baby
Oh, oh
See you




I'd see you
I'd see you

Line by Line Meaning

You're more than just a notch in my belt
You hold a special place in my life that goes beyond just being a conquest


A story to tell
Our experience together is worth retelling and remembering


The only thing on my mind
I can't stop thinking about you, you're my sole preoccupation


And it's keeping me up at night, hm
My thoughts of you are so consuming that they're affecting my sleep


I know you're making magic somewhere
I'm aware that you're doing great things, succeeding and thriving


But not by yourself
You have someone in your life, whom I'm jealous of and is also perhaps my rival


That might be the reason why
Knowing someone else is there for you is unsettling to me, causing me anxiety


I can smell you on the pillow where you used to lay
Even though you're no longer here, your scent lingers, reminding me of your presence


And it's keeping me up at night
The memory of you, the love we shared and the longing to see you again, is making it difficult for me to rest


Another night, another stranger's door
In my search for love and comfort, I keep ending up in random places, trying to fill the void you left


Hoping when it opens I'll see you
I secretly hope that every door I open will reveal you on the other side


You
You are the object of my affection, the one I long to be with


It's obvious I'm not doing well
My mental and emotional state are not stable as I'm still hurting from our separation


Do you see these eyes, when have you known me to cry?
I'm not one to easily show vulnerability or sadness, but my pain is evident in my eyes and demeanor


I'm just sitting here remembering how your lips taste
The memory of your physical presence, our intimate moments, and how they made me feel are still palpable


Wishing I could go back
I wish I could undo our separation, return to a time when we were together


To that night
To the moment when we were together and happy, free from the pain and hurt of our separation


Not knowing when it opened I'd see you (ho oh)
I was surprised and thrilled to see you when I opened that stranger's door, but I wish I could experience that again


Baby
A term of endearment used for the person they love

I'll never forget the songs we used to play
And when I put 'em on
The feeling never fades out my body
I hope you're thinkin' of me (mmm)
There won't be a night, there won't be a place
Where you don't cross my mind
Where I don't see your face in somebody (mmm)
I hope you're thinkin' of me (mmm)
People say we're fools, people say we're dumb
People say we're caught up in temporary love
We don't know what we're doin', they say we're too young
But they don't know a thing about us
I'll wait forever, that's what we said
16th of September, lyin' in my bed
I'll wait forever, it's never too late
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait
I'll wait
There won't be an end, can't forget the start
When you're far away, it's like we're not apart
I'd play my money
Just to hear you say you love me again
People say we're fools, people say we're dumb
People say we're caught up in temporary love
We don't know what we're doin', they say we're too young
But they don't know a thing about us
I'll wait forever, that's what we said
16th of September, lyin' in my bed
I'll wait forever, it's never too late
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
I'll wait (mmm)
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait forever, that's what we said
16th of September, lyin' in my bed
I'll wait forever, it's never too late
Couple thousand miles is just a little space
I'll wait

Love the fact that kygo does all these collabs with underrated artists who don't get the attention they deserve.

@kingsbill5842

Yea true tho

@remidesgagne

AMEN

@majortok

True. But I think he already made a song with Sasha Sloan, but Im not very sure about it. Her voice sounds familiar to me.

@bao-handoan3647

@@majortok I'm pretty sure you're talking about This town

@majortok

@@bao-handoan3647 yeah you are right. Thats the one. But I somehow still dont remember the title. Just the refrain.

@xxpatrick204xx

She kinda sounds like Selena Gomez but not as fat and depressed that Justin dumped her
