Far Away
Chasing Lights: A Journey Through Love and Freedom
Lyrics
Sun is shining, I've been driving
The singer acknowledges the pleasantness of the moment - the sun is shining while they're driving.
You're the brightest thing I've seen today
The person they're addressing is incredibly bright and stands out among everything else the singer has seen today.
You caught me staring, I don't know where but
The singer was caught staring at this person but isn't sure of the exact location or circumstance where this occurred.
We got lost so can you lead the way
They both got lost metaphorically, and the singer asks this person to guide them through this situation.
Got that summer time vibe tonight
The vibe or feeling is reminiscent of summertime, implying a carefree, enjoyable atmosphere.
No problems, out of sight out of mind
There seem to be no current issues bothering them - "out of sight, out of mind."
Maybe we could chase down the light
They entertain the idea of pursuing something positive, chasing after a brighter or better situation.
We're southbound feeling some kind of right
Feeling good about heading in a southern direction, suggesting they're moving in a favorable or right path.
The top down, weaving between the lines
Driving with the convertible's top down, navigating between lanes on the road.
Maybe we could chase down the light
Reiterating the desire to chase after positivity or brightness.
Take me far away, to get lost in your time and space
The plea to be taken far away, to escape and immerse in this person's world and experiences.
Your hiding place
Their desire to find a place away from the chaos or stress, seeking refuge.
Tell me everything, I close my eyes but you still keep me wide awake
The person they're addressing holds their attention, even when the singer tries to rest ("close my eyes").
No stop signs, or red lights, rolling
No obstacles are perceived, indicating smooth progress or movement forward.
We don't know where we're going
They're uncertain about the destination or the final goal of their journey.
With your feet up on the dash
Relaxation and comfort are evident - feet up on the dashboard.
Not looking backwards, 80 in the breeze blowing
They're focused on the present and moving forward rapidly, without dwelling on the past.
Got that summer time vibe tonight
Reiteration of the pleasant, carefree feeling akin to summertime.
No problems, out of sight out of mind
Again, suggesting a lack of current worries or issues.
Maybe we could chase down the light
Similar to line 7, expressing the desire to pursue positivity or brightness.
We're southbound feeling some kind of right
Feeling good about the direction they're heading.
The top down, weaving between the lines
Reiterating the convertible ride, maneuvering through traffic.
Maybe we could chase down the light
Repeating the aspiration to chase after brightness or positivity.
Take me far away, to get lost in your time and space
Desire to be taken away to escape and immerse in the world and experiences of the person addressed.
Your hiding place
Referencing the need for a personal sanctuary away from the world's chaos or stress.
Tell me everything, I close my eyes but you still keep me wide awake
Despite attempting to rest or disconnect ("close my eyes"), the person addressed continues to captivate the singer.
