Next to Me
Thomas Headon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To fall asleep
If you leave
Next to me
Make some noise
I want to hear your voice
When you leave
Beside me
I'd rather keep you in there
Cause you never leave
Inside my dreams
Blame it on myself
I think you'd say the same
Keep it to myself
And write a song again

Line by Line Meaning
Wait for me
Please wait until I fall asleep
To fall asleep
To enter a state of unconsciousness
If you leave
In the event that you depart from me
Next to me
In close proximity to my body
Make some noise
Produce sound with your vocal cords
I want to hear your voice
It would please me greatly to listen to the sound you create
When you leave
At the time of your departure
Beside me
In the locational proximity of my body
Stay inside my mind
Remain in my thoughts and memories
I'd rather keep you in there
I would prefer to maintain thoughts of you inside my mind
Cause you never leave
Because thoughts of you persist in my mind
Inside my dreams
In the imagined scenarios that occur during my sleep
Blame it on myself
Accept responsibility for the situation
I think you'd say the same
I believe you would also accept responsibility
Keep it to myself
Choose not to communicate my feelings to others
And write a song again
Create a musical composition based on these emotions and experiences
