Lyrics
By the waterfront at Gasworks Park
Describing the location at Gasworks Park, near the water's edge
Ours are the only voices
Emphasizing that they are the only ones speaking or making noise
As we stare across the water
Gazing at the water, possibly lost in thought or contemplation
We feel fortunate and proud
Feeling lucky and proud to be present in that moment
To behold such a beautiful, panoramic view of Seattle
Expressing awe at the stunning and wide view of Seattle
Here
Confirming their current location ("Here")
This relative silence is such a relief
Appreciating the quietness as a welcomed break
From the cacophony of the street
Contrasting the peacefulness of the park with the noisy city streets
From the corrosive commotion
Describing the disruptive and damaging chaos of Capitol Hill
Of Capitol Hill
Specifically referencing the commotion in Capitol Hill
At last, we can enjoy each other's presence
Finally being able to enjoy each other's company without distractions
As we inhale the salty air
Delighting in breathing in the salty air of the park
Near midnight, we return to where we parked
Returning to their parked CR-V (car) close by
My CR-V just through the trees
Noting the location of their parked car among the trees
We laugh and reminisce about high school
Sharing laughter and memories about their high school days
As we drive back to your dorm building
Heading back to the dormitory where the listener resides
Our arms wave carelessly
Waving their arms out of the car windows carelessly
Out the windows
Extending their arms outside the car
Blown lightly
Describing the movement of their arms blown lightly by the wind
By the wind
Detailing how the wind lightly affects their arm movements
