Yeah, that's where I wanna be
Expresses a desire to be in that ideal place.
There's a girl I wanna meet out there on the west coast
Refers to a specific girl the singer wants to meet on the west coast.
Get to know real slow
Wants to take time to deeply understand and connect with her.
Couple old soul meant to be's
Suggests a connection or compatibility on a deeper level.

Every time I close my eyes I see her face in the back of my mind
Visualizes her face whenever closing his eyes, indicating she's always on his mind.
Everyday and every night I dream of that big hair beauty queen style
Constantly dreams about her, emphasizing her beauty and style.

Big stage bright lights every song I play I
Performing on stage, he gets captivated by her eyes during every song.
Get lost in her sea green eyes so tragic maybe she's magic

And I'm the one getting hypnotized
Feels entranced or mesmerized by her.

She's a fire she's a wild thing
Describes her as fiery and untamed.
A burning flame turning red to blue

Like the summer heat she can get to me
Compares her allure and impact to the intensity of summer heat.
Anytime she wants to
Expresses readiness to be affected by her whenever she desires.
