When You Sleep
MIRA Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I look at you
Oh, I dont know what I feel
Once in a while
And you make me laugh

And I'll sleep tomorrow
And it won't be long
Once in a while

Then you take me down
When you walk away
When you say "I do"
Oh, but I don't believe in you
I can't forget it
No...oooh

When you sleep tomorrow
And it won't be long
Once in a while

When you make me smile
When you turn your long blonde hair

Overall Meaning

MIRA's song When You Sleep is a melancholic yet heartfelt depiction of the feelings that stir within the singer when she looks at the subject of the song. As she stares at him, she professes that she doesn't know what she feels, although he manages to elicit laughter out of her on occasion. The lyrics "I don't believe in you, I can't forget it" indicate a sense of doubt and skepticism regarding the reliability of the subject. This feeling is further amplified by the phrase "when you walk away," implying a sense of transience or temporality in their relationship.

The song's persistent refrain, "when you sleep tomorrow and it won't be long," carries a sense of longing, suggesting that the singer wishes to be with this person but cannot for some reason. The phrase "when you make me smile" expresses a sense of longing for happier times or perhaps a desire to forget the pain associated with the subject. Finally, the line "when you turn your long blonde hair" implies that the individual may be preoccupied with their physical appearance, indicating a shallow or superficial attraction rather than a deep emotional bond.

Overall, MIRA's song When You Sleep is a poignant exploration of the complicated feelings involved when one is deeply attracted to someone yet simultaneously skeptical of their intentions and motivations.

Line by Line Meaning

When I look at you
Whenever I gaze upon you

Oh, I dont know what I feel
I am not able to describe my emotions towards you

Once in a while
Occasionally

And you make me laugh
You have the ability to bring joy and amusement to me

And I'll sleep tomorrow
I will rest in slumber come tomorrow

And it won't be long
It shall not be prolonged

Then you take me down
You cause me to feel disheartened and defeated

When you walk away
When you depart from my presence

When you say "I do"
When you make a promise or commitment

Oh, but I don't believe in you
However, I am skeptical and distrustful of your words

I can't forget it
I am unable to erase it from my mind
