Every Sunrise
jacksoul Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The Clock won't move forward
It's like time stands still.
Found your coat back in the closet
And it smell of your perfume
Been trying to find myself a new love
But you know my heart just don't got the room
Seems everywhere I'm turning I can't escape those old love tunes.
And on every sunset I'm missing your smile
On every rode I take I can't make it the first quarter mile.
Cause on every car ride it's only sad songs on the dial.
What am I supposed to do?
Now you're gone and it's all wrong.
The bed's too big without you next to me girl.
And at the club I'm missing you holding me too close
We move slow to jam by Teddy P.
There's no better woman in this world for me but you
I'm down on my knees. I begging you please.
Hoping, screaming, calling, wishing you'd come back to me.
Ladycause every day, every night's an eternity.
Seems like every sunrise
in this world holds no value or worth for the singer in this song. He's unable to move on from his past relationship and is struggling to fill the void left by his former girlfriend. The lyrics capture his despair as he alleges that time has stopped and he's stuck in a rut. The smell of her perfume on her old coat makes him nostalgic, and he continues to listen to love songs that remind him of their failed relationship. He's trapped in a loop where he can't seem to escape his feelings and is continually missing his ex, causing him to feel lost and hopeless.
The singer's pain is evident in the chorus, where he expresses that he misses his ex-girlfriend's smile and is constantly reminded of her in every aspect of his life. He can't even make a fresh start, as he's plagued by sad songs on the radio that further remind him of his loss. The lyrics speak to the feeling of being unable to move on and the emotional struggles that come with a broken heart. The singer's desire to reconcile with his ex-girlfriend is evident, and he pleads with her to come back to him, as he's unable to find happiness without her.
