Middle of the Bed
Rose Lucy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
You don't know, is it fine to hold my hand?
I sleep in the middle of the bed
Sun slips through my cold hands
Do you really want me back?
Do you really want me back?
All over the town they say I love you
I'm over it, I'm over you
All over the town
They say I love you, yeah
They say I always will
They say I love you, yeah
These wounds, they won't heal
I talk to myself at night
Better still when the lights are turned out
I talk inside my head
Better if nobody knows what I said
Do you really want me back?
Do you really want me back?
'Cause I'm over it, over you
All over the town they say I love you
I'm over it, I'm over you
All over the town
They say I love you, yeah
They say I always will
They say I love you, yeah
These wounds, they won't heal
It's all over the town
You're spreading the word
It's all over the town
You're spreading the word
If you knew me at all
You should all know my answers
If you knew me at all
You should all know my answers
If you knew me at all
You should all know my answers
If you knew me at all
You should all know my answers
They say I love you, yeah
They say I always will
They say I love you, yeah
These wounds, they won't heal
They say I love you, yeah
They say I always will
They say I love you, yeah
These wounds, they won't heal
The sun slowly falls through
the cold hands of the singer who sleeps alone in the middle of the bed, reaching out for someone who is no longer there. The lyrics convey the sense of loneliness that haunts the singer as they struggle to move on from a past relationship. The singer's internal dialogue is captured through the repetition of the chorus that asks, "Do you really want me back?"
The singer's feelings of hurt and betrayal are exposed through the lines "All over the town they say I love you". It is clear that the pain of the broken relationship has spread throughout their community, and the singer is struggling to come to terms with the reality of the situation. The song shows us someone who has been deeply hurt by another's disloyalty and is still dealing with the wounds it has left behind.
"Middle of the Bed" is a poignant and emotionally charged song that explores the pain of heartbreak, loneliness and the struggle to move on from failed relationships. The lyrics speak to the universal experience of love and loss, making it relatable to a wide audience.
