Lyrics

There's a place in the sun,

Expressing the existence of a desirable place or state of happiness.

For anyone who has the will to chase one

Suggesting that achieving one's dreams requires determination and effort.

And I think I've found mine,

Indicating a personal belief in discovering one's own ideal place or situation.

Yes, I do believe I have found mine, so

Reaffirming the confidence in having found the mentioned ideal place or state.


Close your eyes,

Encouraging introspection or meditation by closing one's eyes.

And think of someone,

Suggesting the focus on someone admired in one's thoughts.

You physically admire

Highlighting the importance of physical admiration for the person in mind.

And let me kiss you,

Expressing a desire for intimacy, specifically a kiss.

Let me kiss you

Reiteration of the desire for a kiss, emphasizing intimacy.


I've zig-zagged all over America,

Describing a journey across America with a sense of unpredictability.

And I cannot find a safety haven

Expressing difficulty in finding a place of safety or refuge.

Say, would you let me cry,

Asking for emotional support and permission to express vulnerability.

On your shoulder

Specifically seeking comfort through crying on someone's shoulder.

I've heard that you'll will try anything twice

Referencing a willingness to experiment or take risks, perhaps in relationships.


Close your eyes,

Repeating the call to close eyes, reinforcing the theme of introspection.

And think of someone,

Reiterating the importance of focusing on someone admired in thoughts.

You physically admire,

Reemphasizing the significance of physical admiration for the person in mind.

And let me kiss you,

Repeating the desire for intimacy through a kiss.

Let me kiss you

Reiteration of the desire for a kiss, emphasizing intimacy.


But then you open your eyes,

Shifting the focus to reality by opening one's eyes.

And you see someone,

Encountering someone disliked or despised upon opening one's eyes.

That you physically despise

Referencing the open-mindedness and willingness to love despite differences.

But my heart is open

Expressing a genuine openness and vulnerability of the heart.

My heart is open to you

Reaffirming the openness of the heart to the person mentioned.
