Sleep Away
Lexie Liu Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

觸碰的柔軟 持續蔓延
像是船舶終於靠岸 太平洋溫度的纏綿
我甘願淪為 滄海一粟的平凡 卻只是今晚
You're telling me not to think too much
加主觀臆斷

你披著星辰來世界頂端
陌生熟悉的信任給我心安
You're too different from them baby
I hope you know it, know it, know it

你的眼 流淌著波浪的藍
熙攘人潮湧動著舊愛新歡
I've been thinking about you lately
I hope you know it, know it, know it

你到底是否 在我身邊
像是鯨魚潮汐擱淺 陽光下低沈嗚咽
我渴望擁有微風看到的視野
漂浮上升空中 尋著你的行蹤
伴著你一路狂奔 卷起了漫天一路揚塵

你披著星辰來世界頂端
陌生熟悉的信任給我心安
You're too different from them baby
I hope you know it, know it, know it

你的眼 流淌著波浪的藍
熙攘人潮湧動著舊愛新歡
I've been thinking about you lately
I hope you know it, know it, know it

Red bottom Louboutin and Yves Saint Laurent
房間散落滿地的星光
微妙顫動著的心臟
You know that I ain't ready yet
I know that you know where she at
Empty your glass and get outta my sight then tonight
You'll be gone but I know that we're better than that, babe

Why don't you stay with me
貪婪地深呼吸氧氣
時而怯懦哽咽著我的勇氣
難開口唯一唯一唯一

你披著星辰來世界頂端
陌生熟悉的信任給我心安
You're too different from them baby
I hope you know it, know it, know it

你的眼 流淌著波浪的藍
熙攘人潮湧動著舊愛新歡
I've been thinking about you lately
I hope you know it, know it, know it

不能說與你與你無關
腦海裡候鳥飛過湖藍
請你傾聽我沈默呼喊
I'm calling your name

你的眼 流淌著波浪的藍
熙攘人潮湧動著舊愛新歡
I've been thinking about you lately
I hope you know it, know it, know it

Why don't you stay with me
貪婪地深呼吸氧氣




時而怯懦哽咽著我的勇氣
難開口唯一唯一唯一

Overall Meaning

In “Sleep Away” by Lexie Liu, the singer talks about her feelings towards someone she cares about deeply. The first verse describes the overwhelming feeling of being close to this person, using comparisons to the softness of touch and the warmth of the Pacific Ocean. The lyrics also reveal the singer's willingness to accept a simple and ordinary life, despite her profound attachment to this special person.


The chorus repeats the idea that the person she cares for is different from others, and she hopes that they know it. The second verse paints a vivid picture of the bustling crowd and frenzied activity that surrounds them, but still, the singer can't help but think about the person she loves. She wonders if they are still by her side, using the metaphor of a beached whale and longing for the ability to follow them up into the sky.


The third verse describes an encounter where the singer and the person she cares for are finally in the same place, but they are still hesitant to fully express their feelings. The lyrics mention designer shoes and scattered starlight, a reflection of the luxury and ambiguity of their relationship. The song ends with the singer calling out to the person she loves by name, expressing her desire for them to stay close to her.


Overall, “Sleep Away” is a poignant and emotional reflection on the complexities of love and relationships. It touches on themes of longing, uncertainty, and the desire for deep human connection. The lyrics are powerful and beautifully written, reflecting the raw emotions and inner turmoil of the singer.

Lyrics :


觸碰的柔軟 持續蔓延
(The softness of touching spreads all over)
像是船舶終於靠岸 太平洋溫度的纏綿
(Like a boat stopped traveling by the seashore just to feel the gentleness of the ocean)
我甘願淪為 滄海一粟的平凡 卻只是今晚
(Usually I wouldn't be there for no one, except for tonight)
You are telling me not to think too much
(你告訴我不要多想)
加主觀臆斷
(So we don't have to complicate things)

你披著星辰來世界頂端
(You came to the top of the world with the sky full of stars on your shoulder )
陌生熟悉的信任給我心安
(We don't know each other that well but you got my trust already)
You are too different from them baby
(你和他們太不一樣了)
I hope you know it know it know it
(你知道的)
你的眼 流淌著波浪的藍
(The ocean blue flowing in your eyes)
熙攘人潮湧動著舊愛新歡
(Like how people come and go in our lives)
I've been thinking about u lately
(我最近常常想起你)
I hope you know it know it know it
(你知道的)


你到底是否 在我身邊
( I'm not sure if you are really with me)
像是鯨魚潮汐擱淺 陽光下低沈嗚咽
(Feeling like a whale stranded on the beach crying under the sun because of insecurity)
我渴望擁有微風看到的視野
(I wish I have the eyes of the softly blowing wind)
漂浮上升空中 尋著你的行蹤
(Elevating and hoping I could look for you from up in the air)
伴著你一路狂奔 卷起了漫天一路揚塵
(So I can follow you in eddy of dust)


你披著星辰來世界頂端
(You came to the top of the world with the sky full of stars on your shoulder )
陌生熟悉的信任給我心安

房間散落滿地的星光
(Starlight shed on the floor)
微妙顫動著的心臟
(My heart shivers)
You know that I ain't ready yet I know that you know where she at
(其實我並未為即將到來的一切做好準備,你最好還是回到她身邊)
Empty your glass and get outta my sight then tonight you'll be gone but I know that we are better than that babe
(杯中的酒已幹涸請你就此離開吧, 雖然我的雙眼依然在渴求)

Why don't you stay with me
(你為什麽不能留下呢)
貪婪地深呼吸氧氣
(You are oxygen to me)
時而怯懦哽咽著我的勇氣
