It Could Happen
Unveiling the Magical Night: It Could Happen by Dave Matthews Band
Lyrics
The lid was on so tight
The situation or circumstance was tightly controlled or constrained.
You just had to bust out
There was a need to break free or escape from the tight control or constraint.
Remember that first night?
Recalling the initial night of an event or experience.
It fell right into our hands
Something significant or valuable unexpectedly came into possession.
Oh, then it happened, yes, it did
A transformative event occurred.
We cut the cord
The decision to break free or disconnect was made.
Could not believe it
Expressing disbelief at the outcome of breaking free.
How it happened, rocket ship
Describing the occurrence with a metaphor of a rocket ship.
It's like we awoke as if we were dreaming
Experiencing a moment that felt like waking up from a dream.
Could it happen?
Pondering the possibility of a similar event happening.
Someone kinda tripped out, holy night
Describing someone's unusual experience on a special night.
Up on the roof, laughing and crying
Recollecting a moment of mixed emotions on a rooftop.
You were so pale, eyes wide
Observing someone appearing frightened or shocked.
Like you might not get out alive
Suggesting a sense of danger or uncertainty in that moment.
Oh, but it happened and you did
Confirming that the unusual event did happen and the person survived.
Everyone laughing and dancing
Everyone present is joyous and celebratory.
How it happened, what a trip
Reflecting on the event and describing it as a remarkable experience.
When we woke up as if we were dreaming
Reiterating the feeling of waking up from a dream after the event.
How it happened, everything fit
Expressing that everything fell into place during the event.
Looking back, it's hard to believe it
Looking back, finding it difficult to believe the reality of the experience.
When you wait so long
Waiting for a long time for something significant.
You'll remember just trying to prove it
Recalling the effort to prove or achieve something during the wait.
But it takes so long
Emphasizing the prolonged nature of the waiting process.
Forever remember the feeling
The lasting memory of the emotional state during the wait.
Oh, people, they were open wide
People being open-minded and receptive.
Marbled in shadows and light
Describing the surroundings with a mix of shadows and light.
When you're so loose, you're so tight
Contrasting states of being loose and tight simultaneously.
Suddenly, you're on fire
Suddenly experiencing intense passion or energy.
Oh, how it happened, blew the lid
The transformative event breaking barriers and revealing something magical.
And got a taste, it's some kind of magic
Tasting the extraordinary and magical nature of the experience.
It could happen like it did
Expressing the possibility of a similar magical event occurring.
Like we awoke, we were still dreaming
Reiterating the dream-like quality of the experience.
When it happened like it did
Reflecting on the extraordinary event and the disbelief associated with it.
If I wasn't there, I wouldn't believe it
Stating that without personal experience, it would be hard to believe.
