Anywhere Everywhere and Nowhere
Lost in the Ghost Town: A Journey Between Promises and Reality
Lyrics
Oh
Expression of surprise or realization
Oh
-Oh
-Why'd you have to sell me a highway of dreams?
Questioning why the other person sold a vision of dreams
You said you'd take me places that I'd never seen
Recalling a promise to explore unseen places together
We'd pick a spot & settle down
Plan to choose a location and settle down together
Then I got lost in your ghost town
Feeling lost in the partner's unfulfilled promises and dreams
Your promises to me were tumbleweeds
Comparing unfulfilled promises to tumbleweeds, indicating emptiness
I said I'd follow you anywhere
Expressing willingness to follow the partner anywhere
You said you'd take me everywhere it's true
Recalling the partner's promise to go everywhere
Somewhere between anywhere and everywhere boy I'm goin' nowhere with you
Realizing that the journey is leading nowhere with the partner
Why'd you give me a map that I couldn't read?
Questioning why the partner provided a map that couldn't be understood
Your north is my south your west is my east
Highlighting differences in direction and orientation between them
Searched far n wide high n low
Searching extensively but finding only dead ends
Found nothin' but a dead end road
Metaphorically representing a journey with no successful outcome
Your compass was misleadin' me
Expressing betrayal by a misleading compass or guidance
I said I'd follow you anywhere
Reiterating the commitment to follow the partner anywhere
You said you'd take me everywhere it's true
Recalling the promise to go everywhere with the partner
Somewhere between anywhere and everywhere boy I'm goin' nowhere with you
Acknowledging that the journey is leading nowhere with the partner
Oh
Expression of surprise or realization
Oh
-Oh
-Now I'm standing here in the middle of the crossroads
Describing the current situation at the crossroads
All dressed up with nowhere to go
Being ready but having no direction or purpose
I said I'd follow you anywhere
Reaffirming the commitment to follow the partner anywhere
You said you'd take me everywhere it's true
Recalling the promise to go everywhere with the partner
Somewhere between anywhere and everywhere boy I'm goin' nowhere with you
Acknowledging that the journey is leading nowhere with the partner
Somewhere between anywhere and everywhere boy I'm goin' nowhere with you
Reiteration of the realization that the journey is aimless with the partner
Oh
Expression of surprise or realization
Oh
-Oh
-Somewhere between anywhere and everywhere
Highlighting the state between having no direction and being everywhere
Nowhere with you
Final confirmation of being nowhere with the partner
