Lyrics
I saw you standing there
I noticed your presence
With that beautiful brown hair
Referring to your attractive brown hair
And that beautiful derrière
Referring to your beautiful rear end
So cold
Expressing emotional distance or aloofness
You're like a
Comparing you to
A ball of lightning
Describing an intense and swift energy
And it's so damn frightening
Expressing fear or anxiety
I've been so misguided for so long
Acknowledging past confusion or misdirection
But you're right in front of me
Acknowledging the person's presence
And I need you all to myself
Desire to have the person exclusively
I need you all to me
Repetition of the desire for exclusivity
Just follow my lead
Asking the person to follow the speaker's lead
Through sick or hell
Commitment to being together in difficult times
Ooo
Expressing emotion or admiration
The stars in the sky go...
Describing the visual impact of the stars
Boom!
Imitating a sound, possibly representing a burst of emotions
They twinkle at night, so...
Highlighting the nighttime sparkle of stars
Soon
Indicating a future event or action
You're telling me your right for...
Questioning the person's suitability
Who?
Asking about the person's allegiance
You a rider or a rival?
Posing a choice between loyalty and competition
Ride out at nightfall
Setting the scene for a night adventure
Love like we're psycho
Describing intense love akin to madness
We shoot off like a rifle
Comparing the intensity to the rapid firing of a rifle
I'm headed like a tidal
Expressing a powerful force, possibly emotional
Yeah you're right in front of me
Reiterating the presence of the person
And I need you all to myself
Repeating the desire for exclusive companionship
I need you all to me
Repetition of the need for personal connection
Just follow my lead
Encouraging the person to follow the speaker
Through sick or hell
Commitment to being together in difficult times (repeated)
Ooo
Expressing emotion or admiration (repeated)
The stars in the sky go...
Describing the visual impact of the stars (repeated)
(Here we go, here we go)
Initiating a significant event or action
Boom!
Imitating a sound, possibly representing a burst of emotions (repeated)
They twinkle at night, so...
Highlighting the nighttime sparkle of stars (repeated)
Soon
Indicating a future event or action (repeated)
You're telling me your right for...
Questioning the person's suitability (repeated)
Who?
Asking about the person's allegiance (repeated)
You a rider or a rival?
Posing a choice between loyalty and competition (repeated)
Ride, ride out at nightfall
Continuing the theme of a nighttime adventure
Love, love like we're psycho
Reiterating intense love resembling madness
We shoot off like a rifle
Comparing the intensity to the rapid firing of a rifle (repeated)
I'm headed like a tidal wave
Expressing a powerful force, possibly emotional (repeated)
Whatcha say?
Prompting a question about the person's response
Would you call?
Asking if the person would make contact
