And it's down to the sound of a heartbeat
I can hear the things that you're dreaming about
When you open up your heart and the truth comes out
CHORUS:
You tell me that you want me
You tell me that you need me
You tell me that you love me
And I know that I'm right
Cuz I hear it in the night
I hear the secrets that you keep
When you're talking in your sleep
When I hold you in my arms at night
Don't you know you're sleeping in a spotlight
And all your dreams that you keep inside
You're telling me the secrets that you just can't hide
CHORUS
When you close your eyes and you fall asleep
Everythng about you is a mystery
CHORUS
This song is a narrative that has repetition in the chorus (you tell me, you tell me). There is an aa bb cc rhyme scheme (keep, sleep, night, spotlight, inside, hide) and the song also includes end rhyme and has metaphors. This song is very cute. I love the fact that the writer is basically telling a love story. It's obviously speaking about a spouse or a crush or just someone the writer spends his days with. I like how they speak about cuddling and the fact that it seems like the person sleeping is awake having a conversation but in reality they are sleep talking. I like it because the sleeping person is basically extending his/her feelings to the writer.
