You're the Ticket
Chasing Dreams and Love: You're the Ticket
Lyrics
I want to be the one sittin' next to you
I aspire to be the person sitting beside you
On your mama's front porch swing
Specifically, on your mother's porch swing
Feel like the guy that gets the girl
I want to feel like the protagonist who wins the girl's heart
On a forty-foot silver screen
Similar to the feeling of being the hero in a movie on a large screen
I want to steal a kiss when we stop
Desire to share a stolen kiss when we pause our journey
At the top of a great big Ferris wheel
Specifically, at the peak of a massive Ferris wheel
I want to know how good that feels
Expressing a desire to experience the joy of such moments
I want to be a red Corvette
Expressing a desire to embody the excitement of a red Corvette
Rolling down a two-lane road
Rolling down a two-lane road with freedom
With the top rolled back and no speed limit
With the convertible top down and no speed restrictions
I want to be a midnight plane
Expressing a desire to be like a plane flying towards Key Biscayne
Headin' down to Key Biscayne
Specifically, at midnight, symbolizing a carefree journey
Livin' life and lovin' every minute
Embracing life and enjoying every moment to the fullest
And you're the ticket
Declaring that the person addressed is the key to these experiences
I want to be the kid in the candy store
Desiring to be like a child in a candy store with abundance
With a new twenty dollar bill
Having a new twenty dollar bill, symbolizing prosperity
Want to walk in the sand holdin' your hand
Expressing a desire to walk on the beach, hand in hand
With nothin' but time to kill
With an abundance of time to spend leisurely
Roll the dice when I need a seven
Using a dice metaphor to express a desire for luck
And know that I can't lose
Confidently believing that with the person, success is assured
Girl you make every dream come true
Highlighting the transformative power of the person's presence
I want to be a red Corvette
Reiteration of the desire to embody the thrill of a red Corvette
Rolling down a two-lane road
Repeating the imagery of cruising freely on a two-lane road
With the top rolled back and no speed limit
Reiterating the idea of unrestricted speed with the top down
I want to be a midnight plane
Reiterating the desire to be like a midnight plane to Key Biscayne
Headin' down to Key Biscayne
Emphasizing the idea of a carefree, adventurous journey
Livin' life and lovin' every minute
Reiterating the commitment to live life to the fullest
And you're the ticket
Affirming that the person is the essential element for these experiences
I want to be a red Corvette
Continuing the desire to embody the thrill of a red Corvette
Rolling down a two-lane road
Repeating the imagery of cruising freely on a two-lane road
With the top rolled back and no speed limit
Reiterating the idea of unrestricted speed with the top down
I want to be a midnight plane
Repeating the desire to be like a midnight plane to Key Biscayne
Headin' down to Key Biscayne
Emphasizing the idea of a carefree, adventurous journey
Livin' life and lovin' every minute
Reiterating the commitment to live life to the fullest
I said a red Corvette
Stressing the thrill of being a red Corvette
Rolling down a two-lane road
Repeating the imagery of cruising freely on a two-lane road
With the top rolled back and no speed limit
Reiterating the idea of unrestricted speed with the top down
I want to be a midnight plane
Repeating the desire to be like a midnight plane to Key Biscayne
Headin' down to Key Biscayne
Emphasizing the idea of a carefree, adventurous journey
Livin' life and lovin' every minute
Reiterating the commitment to live life to the fullest
And you're the ticket
Concluding that the person is the key to living life joyfully
