Lyrics
As I write, I watch the night go down
Reflecting on the night as the speaker writes.
And I see the lonely, twinkling lights of town
Observing distant lights in a town, possibly symbolizing loneliness.
And I think about a girl
Contemplating a girl on the speaker's mind.
She's out there in the world
The girl is somewhere in the world.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Emphasizing the girl's search for the speaker.
I heard her sing once at the rodeo
Recalling a moment when the girl sang at a rodeo.
She wore a rhinestone suit of white and gold
Describing the girl's attire with a rhinestone suit.
And as she sang and played
Expressing the impact of the girl's singing on the speaker.
She stole my heart away
The girl captured the speaker's heart.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Reiterating the girl's ongoing search for the speaker.
She's looking for me somewhere, I know
Affirming the certainty that the girl is searching for the speaker.
She's looking for me high and looking low
Highlighting the girl's persistent search efforts.
Oh, to live and die, it seems
Commenting on the importance of having dreams in life.
Is a waste without a dream
Suggesting that a life without dreams is wasteful.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Reaffirming the girl's continuous search for the speaker.
She's looking for me somewhere, I know
Reiterating the girl's ongoing and dedicated search.
She's looking for me high and looking low
Emphasizing her thorough search, high and low.
Oh, to live and die, it seems
Reflecting again on the importance of having dreams.
Is a waste without a dream
Reiterating the notion that life without dreams is a waste.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Affirming the girl's persistent pursuit of the speaker.
And as the morning sun begins to rise
Shifting to the morning and the start of a new day.
Alone, I go to bed and I close my eyes
The speaker goes to bed alone, perhaps indicating solitude.
And I Dream about a girl
Dreaming about the same girl from earlier.
Out there in the world
The girl remains in the speaker's thoughts while dreaming.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Reiterating the girl's persistent search even in dreams.
She's looking for, she's looking for me somewhere
Concluding with the ongoing theme of the girl searching for the speaker.
