Strawberry Highlights
Chasing Strawberry Dreams: A West Coast Melody
Lyrics
I’m on the
I am currently
West coast walking the skyline
Walking along the skyline on the West coast
Seeing summer days in those strawberry highlights
Observing summer days and reminiscing about strawberry highlights
Not a foot on the ground
Not physically grounded
But gravity’s pushing down
However, feeling the weight of gravity
Late nights out in the city
Spending late nights in the city
Won’t be the same without you with me
Expressing that the city experience lacks completeness without a companion
Ain’t no need to get older
There's no necessity to age
Won’t you come on closer
Inviting someone to come closer
Won’t you
Reiteration of the invitation
Take me on back, take me on back
Yearning to be taken back
Take me away from here
Seeking an escape from the current situation
I’ve been giving my best, still I’m getting no rest
Putting effort without finding solace
Moving on to nowhere I belong
Transitioning aimlessly
Oh, take me on back, take me on back
Expressing the desire to be taken back once more
Take me away from here
Reiteration of the desire for a change of place
I’m too old to believe and too young to think straight
Feeling too mature to believe and too young to think clearly
Maybe I’m cool with that
Acceptance of the current state
I’m already fucked up
Acknowledging existing issues
I never get enough
Experiencing insufficiency
Pour another, I’m thinking I love her
Drinking more and contemplating love
We’re two of a kind
Identifying similarities with someone
The way we think alike, yeah
Highlighting mental alignment with the identified person
And she’s been telling me to come down
Being advised to calm down by the identified person
My head’s up in the clouds
Feeling mentally elevated
If you knew me, you’d only see through me
Suggesting that true understanding requires knowing the person deeply
I was hoping you’d stay, yeah
Expressing a hope for the person to stay
Won’t you
Repetition of the invitation
Take me on back, take me on back
Expressing the desire to be taken back again
Take me away from here
Reiteration of the wish for a change of place
I’ve been giving my best, still I’m getting no rest
Continuing to put effort without finding relief
Moving on to nowhere I belong
Persisting in a directionless journey
Oh, take me on back, take me on back
Repetition of the plea to be taken back
Take me away from here
Renewed desire to escape the current situation
I’m too old to believe and too young to think straight
Feeling conflicted between maturity and clarity of thought
Maybe I’m cool with that
Embracing the ambiguity and being content with it
