NOW
Scott Alan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey, I got your message
That you stopped by the apartment.
No worries leave your things here
For one more day.

I don't know why this happened.
My life is dark as hell without you;
The room feels so much colder

Since you went away.

Brian, I don't want this.
Why can't we sit and talk this through?
I'm losing sleep,
And I need you to come back home
To me
Now.

Since your brother's birthday's Friday
I sent a card from both of us
The day before there was no us,
How was I to know?

Don't worry about your clothes and all,
Maybe I will pack them up.
Make this easier on both of us,
Well, just for you.

'Cause everything is breaking down, now
Since you've been gone.
I don't even know the days,
I don't know where to start,
I'm in agony,
There are times I can't breathe
Now.

So, I guess that's it.
I'm sorry for this message.
Your bags will all be waiting, when you arrive.

I hope you're doing well
Now.

Hey, eu recebi a sua mensagem
De que você passou no apartamento
Não se preocupe, deixe suas coisas aqui
Por mais um dia

Eu não sei por que isso aconteceu
Minha vida é escura como o inferno sem você
A sala parece mais fria
Desde que você foi embora

Brian, eu não quero isso
Por que não podemos sentar e conversar sobre isso?
Eu estou perdendo o sono
E eu preciso que você volte para casa
Para mim
Agora

No aniversário do seu irmã na sexta-feira
Enviei um cartão por nós dois
E no dia seguinte não havia mais nós dois
Como eu ia saber?

Não se preocupe com a sua roupa e tudo
Talvez eu irei empacotá-los
Tornar isso mais fácil de nós dois
Bem, só para você

Porque tudo está desmoronando, agora
Desde que você se foi
Eu nem sei o dia
Eu não sei por onde começar
Eu estou em agonia
Há momentos em que eu não consigo respirar
Agora

Então, eu acho que é isso
Sinto muito por esta mensagem
Suas malas estarão à espera, quando você chegar
Espero que você esteja bem
Agora
