Drive by Lovers
Drive by Lovers: Unveiling the Intimate Dance of Passing Connections
Lyrics
Saw you in your car
Observing the person in their car
You were turning hard
Noticing a strong or sharp turn
Looking at me
Noticing the person looking at the singer
Looking at you
Reciprocal gaze exchange
Swear I felt you babe
Feeling a connection with the person
In the turning lane
Feeling the connection while in a turning lane
Looking at me
Observing the person looking at the singer again
Looking at you
Reciprocal gaze exchange persists
I don't how to pretend
Expressing uncertainty about pretending or hiding feelings
Oh well
Accepting the situation
Behind this glass
Using a metaphor of being behind glass to express vulnerability
I can show myself
Willingness to reveal oneself
I'm not afraid to be honest with you
Expressing willingness to be honest
Just let me hide
Desiring to hide despite being honest
Inside my Subaru
Mentioning being inside a Subaru, possibly symbolizing a safe space or comfort zone
Drive by lovers
Describing the situation as 'drive by lovers' appearing fleetingly
Fade into view
Expectation to find another person similar to the one observed
I'm gonna find another you
Intent to find a replacement for the observed person
Drive by side eye
Mentioning the act of observing others while driving by
I've seen a few
Having observed multiple instances of people in a similar manner
I'm gonna find another you
Intent to find another person similar to the observed ones
Should I say hi
Debating whether to initiate contact
Should I be nice
Contemplating being polite or friendly
Well it's over
Realizing the situation has ended abruptly
Before I could get to choose
Not having the chance to make a choice
It was lovely
Reflecting on the pleasantness of the experience
While it lasted
Recognizing it was temporary
It was plastic plastic
Comparing the experience to something superficial or artificial
Just like expensive news
Analogizing the experience to costly but insubstantial news
I don't know how to pretend
Reiterating difficulty in pretending or hiding feelings
Oh well
Accepting the situation despite difficulty
Behind this glass
Using the metaphor of being behind glass again
I can show myself
Willingness to reveal oneself despite vulnerability
Im not afraid to be honest with you
Expressing readiness to be honest
Just let me hide
Desiring to hide despite honesty
Inside my Subaru
Mentioning being inside a Subaru again as a safe space
Drive by lovers
Repeating the idea of fleeting encounters
Fade into view
Intent to find another person similar to previous encounters
I'm gonna find another you
Expressing determination to find a replacement
Drive by side eye
Reiterating the act of observing others while driving by
I've seen a few
Confirming having observed multiple instances
I'm gonna find another you
Restating the intent to find another person similar to previous observations
