Gypsy Queen
Chasing Dreams Under the California Sun
Lyrics
How lucky we are that summer came
Expressing gratitude for the arrival of summer.
There was snow on the ground till the first of may
Describing a late arrival of spring with snow until May 1.
But as soon as you saw the sun you ran for shade
Describing a quick response to sunshine by seeking shade.
So I let that town and my feelings fade
Choosing to leave a town and let emotions fade.
I heard they finally found the gypsy queen
News of finding the "gypsy queen," suggesting a mysterious or free-spirited individual.
Locked her up inside a California dream
Imagery of imprisoning the gypsy queen within a California dream, possibly symbolizing societal constraints.
But I’m happy to say she’s now friend of mine
Expressing happiness about becoming friends with the gypsy queen.
And our favorite days are just wasted time
Highlighting that enjoyable moments are considered as "wasted time."
The waters warm in September here
Describing warm waters in September, possibly symbolizing a comfortable or pleasant environment.
Drive 300 miles for the stars to appear
Driving a considerable distance for stargazing, emphasizing the value placed on certain experiences.
We’re all so fine we forgot how to just feel
Reflecting on a state of well-being but feeling a disconnect from emotions.
So we’ll raise one up for a hell of a year
Toasting for an eventful year, acknowledging both highs and lows.
I heard they found the gypsy queen
Reiteration of finding the gypsy queen, emphasizing the theme of freedom or uniqueness.
Caught her and locked her in California dream
Repeating the imagery of confining the gypsy queen within a California dream.
But I’m happy to say she’s a friend of mine
Reiterating the joy of being friends with the gypsy queen.
And our favorite days are just wasted time
Emphasizing that cherished moments are considered as "wasted time."
And our favorite days are just wasted time
Repeating the idea that favorite days are perceived as time not well-spent.
And our favorite days are just wasted time
Echoing the sentiment that enjoyable days are seen as wasteful.
