This is one of my favorite songs. https://fnfgo.io
To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold utopian dream
You do something to me that I can't explain
So would I be out of line if I said I miss you?
I see your picture
I smell your skin on the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days
But already I'm wasting away
I know I'll see you again, whether far or soon
But I need you to know
That I care and I miss you
Is a gift I didn't think could be real
To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold utopian dream
You do something to me that I can't explain
So would I be out of line if I said I miss you?
I see your picture
I smell your skin on the empty pillow next to mine
You have only been gone ten days
But already I'm wasting away
I know I'll see you again, whether far or soon
But I need you to know
That I care and I miss you

This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan

This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.
American Town

Ed Sheeran shares a short story of reconnecting with an old flame on “American Town.” The track is about a holiday Ed Sheeran spends with his countrywoman who resides in America. The two are back together after a long period apart, and get around to enjoying a bunch of fun activities while rekindling the flames of their romance.
i love this song. it helped me cry sometimes.
It's about Brandon being far away from his then girlfriend Joanna Bourne Taylor, who is English. For all those ladies interested in Brandon's love life, he is now seeing a lady called Lisa Snowdon, who is a model. They met on a UK kid's show called SMTV live. Lisa used to see George Clooney.
Wow... If Harry is right.. That's amazing.. This makes a VERY good break up song.
i think this one is simple. about someone missing a lover. a really beautiful song. one of my favourite incubus songs.
this song is a nice love song....that i think is sweet.....incubus rocks!
This is a great song for those of us that have had to deal with being distanced from the one that we love. It's so romanticaly sweet!
i don't see it so much as a break up song...but more like Hoobastank's "To Be With You"...kindof about a long distance relationship
this is one of incubus' sweetest songs. I love the part "I'm already wasting away". The way Brandon says it gives me chills! Harry you're incorrect about that Lisa chic, I'm Brandon's g/f. HA HA I WISH!
How can one man be sooooooo sensitive! I mean, he ain't no man. I reckon he's a woman in disguise. Not really! I love the line... Actually I love the whole of the song, it makes me cry cos it's so beautiful
the first time i heard it it made me cry cause when i heard it i had just broken up wit someone who meant a great deal to me. its an amazing combination ofmeaning and music.
