The protagonist is talking about how it feels like morning when she looks into the eyes of her partner, even though it's been 9:15 for a long time.

She also talks about how she can see on her face that she's surprised that they made it through another day, but it's never something she could hide. The protagonist talks about how the night will cover her again, and the only way to be brought back is by her partner. She ends the song by saying "hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh" to her partner.
