Taxi Driver
Urban Journeys: Finding Solace in Taxi Drives
Lyrics
Cruisin through the city
Cruising through the city
Full of billboards and lights
City full of billboards and lights
On a Saturday night
It's a Saturday night
See the world passin by
Observing the passing world
Life in technicolor
Life feels vivid and vibrant
Feels so black and white
Despite that, emotions seem binary
When you see all the signs
Seeing signs but unable to reverse time
But you still can’t rewind oh
Regretting the inability to go back
A million faces and places but no one leaves traces in my life
Encountering numerous people and places, yet none leaving a mark
Cause they talk and they talk and they talk but their words are all wasted in my eyes
Others' words hold no value or impact
Need some yellow car late night therapy
Desire for therapeutic moments in a yellow cab with no commitments
when i got nowhere to be
Seeking refuge without a specific destination
my mind’s not at ease
Anxiety or unease in the mind
all these people to please
Pressure to please many
Sometimes I ride so I can take the back seat
Choosing to take a passive role sometimes
Talk to a stranger
Engaging in conversation with strangers
And jump in the deep
Delving into deeper conversations
It’s hard to let go but it’s so easy to speak
Difficulty in letting go but finding it easy to communicate
to a taxi driver
Seeking solace in conversations with a taxi driver
Ah a taxi driver
Acknowledging the role of a taxi driver
Ah, and talk to a stranger and jump in the deep
Ah a taxi driver
Reiterating the connection with a taxi driver for conversation
Lately I been wishin
Longing to rediscover a lost love
I could find my way back
Wishing to find a way back to a past love
To the love I let pass
Regret for letting love slip away
And fill up my glass
Desire to replenish or rekindle emotions
Man I really need to
Feeling a strong need to release
Just let it all go
Seeking control or stability
And find some control
Looking for a way to regain control
Cause I’m coming home
Heading home
A million faces and places but no one leaves traces in my life
Encountering many but none making a lasting impression
Cause they talk and they talk and they talk but their words are all wasted in my eyes
Disregarding meaningless chatter of others
Need some yellow car late night therapy
Yearning for therapeutic moments in a taxi
When I got nowhere to be
Without any specific destination
My mind’s not at ease
Restlessness in the mind
All these people to please
Pressure from the multitude of people to satisfy
Sometimes I ride so I can take the back seat
Opting for a passive role at times
Talk to a stranger
Engaging in conversation with strangers
And jump in the deep
Immersing in deeper conversations
It’s hard to let go but it’s so easy to speak to
Difficulty in relinquishing control but ease in conversing with
A taxi driver
A taxi driver for solace
Ah a taxi driver
Reiterating the connection with a taxi driver for conversation
Ah, and talk to a stranger and jump in the deep
Ah a taxi driver
