City Lights and Warm Embraces: Castle Arcade's Reflective JourneyLyrics
Car lights
Reference to car lights, setting the scene
They blind you
The brightness of car lights can be overwhelming
Walking the streets of this town
Walking in the streets of the town
That we can't
Expressing anticipation or eagerness
Wait to
Excitement about leaving the town
Get away from
Desire to escape from the current environment
We'll find ourselves under city lights
Imagining being under city lights
We'll be there soon
Anticipation of arriving soon
And it's a lot less dark tonight
Feeling that the night is less daunting
Cause I can see myself reflected in your eyes
Seeing oneself reflected in the partner's eyes
And it's a lot less cold outside
Feeling warmth and comfort
Cause I can feel your warmth with your hand in mine
Physical and emotional connection with the partner
Street lights
Reference to street lights guiding the way
They guide you
Direction towards the narrator's house
Down the roads to my house
Guidance towards a destination
Into my room
Transition into a personal space (room)
And it's a lot less dark tonight
Reiteration of the night being less dark
Cause I can see myself reflected in your eyes
Continued reflection in the partner's eyes
And it's a lot less cold outside
Continued warmth and comfort
Cause I can feel your warmth with your hand in mine
Emphasizing the physical connection
And it's a lot less dark tonight
Reiteration of the night being less dark
Cause I can see myself reflected
Visualizing oneself reflected in the partner's eyes
It's a lot less cold outside cause I can feel your warmth
Feeling warmth, both physically and emotionally
And it's a lot less dark tonight
Reiteration of the night being less dark
Cause I can see myself reflected in your eyes
Continued reflection in the partner's eyes
And it's a lot less cold outside
Continued warmth and comfort
Cause I can feel your warmth with your hand in mine
Final emphasis on feeling warmth through physical touch
