- Daylight Lyrics / with translationsHere I am waiting
I'll have to leave soon
Why am I holding on?
We knew this day would come
We knew it all along
How did it come so fast?
This is our last night but it's late
And I'm trying not to sleep
Cause I know, when I wake, I will have to slip away
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Here I am staring at your perfection
In my arms, so beautiful
The sky is getting bright, the stars are burning out
Somebody slow it down
This is way too hard, cause I know
When the sun comes up, I will leave
This is my last glance that will soon be memory
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I never wanted to stop
Because I don't wanna stuck alone babe
Stuck alone babe
I was afraid of the dark
But now it's all that I want
All that I want, all that I want
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (yeah)
Oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah (yeah), oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I'll have to leave soon

How did it come so fast?
This is our last night but it's late
And I'm trying not to sleep
Cause I know, when I wake, I will have to slip away
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
But tonight I need to hold you so close
Oh-woah, oh-woah, oh-woah-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

For me, this is about him going on tour or something and has to go for a long time. That's why it makes me feel a little sad but I love it. It just makes you realise how the musical artists feel even when they are living the life :)
