Lyrics
There's a place I know called Deckers Creek
Introduction to a place named Deckers Creek
Where the leaves fall slower and the river speaks
Describing a serene environment with slow-falling leaves and a talkative river
If I listen close, I'll bring back quite the tune
Listening closely can reveal a captivating melody from the surroundings
I know you'll love it if I take you there
Expressing a desire to share the beauty of Deckers Creek with someone
Cause these city views, they just can't compare
Comparing urban views unfavorably to the natural beauty of Deckers Creek
To the shimmer on the water and the dancing of the sun and the moon
Highlighting the captivating effects of the water, sun, and moon
See they never touch, but they get real close
Describing the proximity of the sun and moon without actual contact
A forever tease, an eternal joke
Characterizing the relationship between the celestial bodies as a perpetual tease
It hurts to watch, and yet I still dance with you
Expressing the pain of observing the distant but alluring connection
See I wanna quit, but that head full of curls
Mentioning a desire to quit, but the allure of a person's charm persists
Is moving to the music like a hula girl
Describing the captivating effect of someone's dance and music on the speaker
And my feet keep going cause I'm hypnotized by the view
Continuing to dance due to being hypnotized by the enchanting scene
And it's funny cause we hardly speak
Notable lack of communication, despite a strong connection
But just one night at Deckers Creek
A memorable night at Deckers Creek causing an intense reaction in the speaker
Got me kicking and a-running and a-howling like coyotes do
Resulting in energetic and primal responses akin to coyotes
I might shut up, but I probably won't
Hinting at potential silence, though uncertainty is acknowledged
And you might come around, but if you don't
Addressing the possibility of the other person not reciprocating feelings
At least somewhere there's a song I wrote about you
Assurance that there's a song written about the person, regardless of the outcome
At least somewhere there's a song I wrote about you
Reiteration of having a song written about the person
Now don't let that grow your head too big
Cautioning against arrogance despite the mentioned song
Cause the good Lord knows this little jig
Recognizing the ongoing nature of the situation, suggesting more to come
Ain't done just yet girl
Anticipation of a subsequent encounter or phase
We ain't had round two
Reference to a potential second round or chapter in the relationship
This time, I'll try a different approach
Commitment to a different approach in the next phase
Yeah, I'll grab the reins like an old stage coach
Determined stance, likening it to taking control like an old stage coach
Cause I'll be damned if I cower in my shoes
Refusing to be timid or hesitant in the face of challenges
When you're ready, we'll head back to Deckers Creek
Future plans to return to Deckers Creek when the other person is ready
But not til you learn what it is you seek
Condition for the return – the other person understanding what they seek
Cause to be quite frank, baby, I got work to do
Recognition of personal responsibilities and priorities
But if God says so I'll come right back to you
Conditional commitment to return if guided by a higher force
If God says so, I'll come right back to you
Reiterating the conditional commitment to return as per divine guidance
