Biggest Thing
Chasing Meaning: Ocean Colour Scene's Biggest Thing
Lyrics
Up through all the streets you go
Describing the journey through streets.
But little girl don't find her name
A little girl's name cannot be found.
And we're all gone down roads to homes
People have traveled down various paths to find their homes.
Where everybody finds their game
Everyone discovers their purpose or passion in life.
Just behind the street she goes
A location just beyond the street where a girl is found.
Where she'll be found behind her wheel
The girl is behind the wheel, possibly in control of her destiny.
'Cause it's the only place she knows
Her comfort zone, the only place she truly understands.
That makes her know just how she feels
Her feelings are intimately connected to this place.
'Cause you're the biggest thing
The person being addressed is significant and influential.
That I see
The addressed person is immense in importance.
You've got me where you want me
The addressed person has control and influence over the speaker.
You hunt me down, you haunt me
The person actively pursues and troubles the speaker.
And beg me to believe
A plea to trust and believe in the addressed person.
All too fast to where she goes
The girl's movement is swift and elusive.
But who'll be first to find her name
Uncertainty about who will first discover the girl's identity.
And holding on in Hollywood
Holding on in a place associated with dreams and fame (Hollywood).
But holding on don't make the grade
However, perseverance alone is not enough.
Just about when it's all right
A moment when everything seems fine.
There's you and I : we'll find our way
The speaker and someone else will navigate challenges together.
But it's holidays not Hollywood
Contrasting holidays with the glamour of Hollywood.
And holidays don't suit my game.
Holidays do not align with the speaker's aspirations.
'Cause you're the biggest thing
Reiteration of the significant impact of the addressed person.
That I see
The addressed person remains of utmost importance.
You've got me where you want me
The person has a powerful hold on the speaker.
You hunt me down and haunt me
Pursuing and haunting the speaker emotionally.
And beg me to believe
A plea for the speaker to trust and have faith.
Hollow days and hollow nights
Emptiness during holidays and nights.
But everyone they find their way
Everyone eventually finds their way, even in emptiness.
It hightlights you when things ain't right
Difficulties make the addressed person stand out.
And makes you want to find your place
Challenges inspire the desire to find one's place.
'Cause you're the biggest thing
Reiteration of the addressed person's significance.
That I see
The person is still the most significant thing to the speaker.
You've got me where you want me
The addressed person has the speaker under their influence.
You hunt me down, you haunt me
Continued pursuit and haunting by the addressed person.
And beg me to believe
A plea for the speaker to have faith and trust.
'Cause you're the biggest thing
Reiteration of the addressed person's immense importance.
That I see
The person remains the most significant in the speaker's eyes.
You've got me where you want me
The addressed person has a powerful hold on the speaker.
You hunt me down,you haunt me
Continued pursuit and haunting by the addressed person.
And beg me to believe
A plea for the speaker to believe and trust in the addressed person.
