The lyrics are about loving someone who isn’t having a good time or is in an absorbing rut.
The character in the song tells her that he will be there for her and that he will wait for her because he loves her.
Well, I think songs are all about the listener the meaning of any lyrics can be different...
[Verse 1]
When you, when you forget your name
When old faces all look the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning, then you'll wake up
[Chorus]
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side, I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
[Verse 2]
Bitter and hardened heart
Oh, aching, waiting for life to start
[Pre-Chorus]
Meet me in the morning when you wake up
Meet me in the morning, then you'll wake up
[Chorus]
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side, I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
[Chorus]
If only I don't bend and break
I'll meet you on the other side, I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
I'll meet you on the other side, I'll meet you in the light
If only I don't suffocate
I'll meet you in the morning when you wake
