"Bliss" by Roosevelt reaches back to mornings and summer nights when love felt like light and dancing, then lands in a present where that warmth is gone. The repeated question of what to do carries the ache of helplessness, while being brought to their knees and losing their own beat shows how deeply the absence unsettles them. The contrast between remembered joy and current exhaustion makes the refrain feel less like a statement and more like a wound. Love was the rhythm, and without it, even rest offers no peace.
Bliss Lyrics by Roosevelt
Back in the morning when I felt your light
Long enough to make it right
What can I do?
There’s no bliss without you
Back in the summer when you danced all night
Felt so right to make you mine
What can I do?
There’s no bliss without you
Back in the morning when I felt your light
Long enough to make it right
What can I do?
There’s no bliss without you
Back in the summer when you danced all night
Felt so right to make you mine
What can I do?
There’s no bliss without you
‘Cause you
Bring me to my knees
I’m tired but cannot sleep
There’s no bliss without you
And we
Been falling into deep
I’m losing my own beat
There’s no bliss without you
Back in the morning when I felt your light
Long enough to make it right
What can I do?
There’s no bliss without you
‘Cause you
Bring me to my knees
I’m tired but cannot sleep
There’s no bliss without you
And we
Been falling into deep
I’m losing my own beat
There’s no bliss without you
There’s no bliss without you, no bliss without you
There’s no bliss without you, no bliss without you
There’s no bliss without you, no bliss without you
There’s no bliss without you, no bliss without you
