Leave
Escape the Noise: Jacob Miller's Journey to Freedom
Lyrics
We took a trip to the shore line
We embarked on a journey to the shore.
A drive from the city to get away
We drove away from the city for a break.
Coastal towns and freight trains roll by,
Observing coastal towns and passing freight trains as the day unfolds.
With the day
Experiencing the day's events.
We didn't pack bags we just had to get away
We didn't bring luggage, just needed to escape.
From the sounds and from the screens
A desire to escape the noise and technology.
I want to go babe, I want to go babe
Expressing a longing to leave.
I want to leave, I want to leave
An explicit desire to depart.
Let me take you for a ride
Inviting someone for a journey.
Cheap diner, smoke outside
Depicting a scene of a modest restaurant with smoking area outside.
We've no particular place to be
No specific destination in mind.
We can drive into the night
Suggesting the freedom to drive into the night.
take a walk on the wild side
Encouraging spontaneity and adventure.
It's you, and me
The experience is shared between "you" and "me."
Let's leave
An explicit call to leave.
Let's leave
Repetition emphasizes the urge to leave.
Let's leave
Reiteration of the desire to depart.
Let's leave
Emphasizing the collective decision to leave.
A pause at the roadside as the mist rolls
A momentary stop by the roadside in misty surroundings.
Down the gorge among the trees
Describing a scenic location with a gorge and trees.
Hear the wind whisper blow
Listening to the wind whispering.
I'm reaching my hand out to yours
A symbolic reaching out for connection.
For to leave, for to leave
Reiterating the desire to leave.
Let me take you for a ride
Inviting someone for a ride, mirroring earlier lines.
Cheap diner, smoke outside
Reiteration of the scene at a cheap diner with outdoor smoking.
We've no particular place to be
Reaffirming the lack of a specific destination.
We can drive into the night
Restating the freedom to drive into the night.
take a walk on the wild side
Reemphasizing spontaneity and adventure.
It's you, and me
Reiterating the shared experience between "you" and "me."
Let's leave
Repeating the explicit call to leave.
Let's leave
Further emphasizing the urge to leave.
Let's leave
Continued emphasis on the collective decision to leave.
Let's leave
Repeating the call to depart, concluding the song.
