[Verse 1]

Lights are out and my eyes are shut

When I stand, it hurts too much

No matter what I do, you know it’s true

When I dream, I dream of you

When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind

I wish I was with you all of the time

When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind

I wish I was with you all of the time


[Verse 2]

Why won’t you stay with me?

Why won’t you stay with me?

Why won’t you stay with me? (No matter what I do, you know it’s true)

Why won’t you stay with me? (When I dream, I dream of you)

When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind

I wish I was with you all of the time

When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind

I wish I was with you all of the time

“Lights are out and my eyes are shut When I stand, it hurts too much No matter what I do, you know it’s true When I dream, I dream of you”

This verse seems to describe a scenario in which he struggles to sleep.

When he’s conscious it hurts too much because he can think about them but even when he sleeps they appear in his dreams. It pains him so much and there’s nothing he can do about it because he’s still not over them.

“Why won’t you stay with me? Why won’t you stay with me? Why won’t you stay with me? (No matter what I do, you know it’s true) Why won’t you stay with me? (When I dream, I dream of you) When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind I wish I was with you all of the time When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind I wish I was with you all of the time”

He repeatedly questions why they won’t stay with him. No matter what he does, they will still leave him.

He loves him to the extent that they appear in their dreams, it crushes him that they’re no longer around and it makes him go crazy.

“When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind I wish I was with you all of the time When I don’t have you, I’m losing my mind I wish I was with you all of the time”
