Over The Sun
Chasing the Unattainable: Love Beyond the Horizon
Lyrics
Everywhere you see, everyone is chasing after her
People everywhere are pursuing a particular woman.
She's a masterpiece, the only good I've ever found
The woman is considered a remarkable and valuable entity in the speaker's life.
But she's so out of reach
Despite her appeal, she is unattainable or difficult to connect with.
Can't get there no matter how fast you run
Efforts to reach her are futile, emphasizing the difficulty of the pursuit.
As far as the eye can see, she's further
She is metaphorically distant, beyond the visible horizon.
Take my word for it
An assurance to trust the speaker's observation and perspective.
She's so damn far that she's over the sun
The woman is extremely distant, symbolically described as being "over the sun."
Over the sun, how fast can I run
Expressing the urgency and speed needed in pursuing her.
She won't care how hard you're trying to stay straight on her track
Despite efforts, the woman remains indifferent to the pursuit.
You'll get burned, you'll be crying
Warning about the emotional toll of the pursuit, including potential heartbreak.
But she's never looking back
The woman is focused on the future and not dwelling on the past.
And I guess I've got myself to blame 'cause I'm the one who fell
Accepting responsibility for falling for the woman and experiencing the consequences.
Lost my heart and all my shame, but I've got a story to tell
Despite the challenges, the speaker has a unique story resulting from the experience.
'Cause she's so out of reach
Reiterating the inaccessibility of the woman despite efforts to reach her.
Can't get there no matter how fast you run
Highlighting the impossibility of reaching the woman no matter how fast one runs.
As far as the eye can see, she's further
Reemphasizing the woman's extreme distance and unattainability.
Take my word for it
Reaffirming the speaker's credibility and the woman's unreachable status.
She's so damn far that she's over the sun
Stressing the woman's metaphorical position "over the sun."
Over the sun, how fast can I run
Repeating the urgency and speed required in pursuing the distant woman.
'Cause she's out there running
Acknowledging the woman's active and elusive nature.
Go on and join that race, but you'll have to wait in line
Suggesting that joining the pursuit requires patience and endurance.
Good luck being her astronaut
Wishing luck to those attempting to be close to the woman, using an astronaut metaphor.
You know this won't be my last time
Expressing a sense of recurrence in attempting to be close to the woman.
And I guess I've got myself to blame 'cause I'm the one who fell
Reiterating responsibility for falling for the woman and facing consequences.
Lost my heart and all my shame, but I've got a story to tell
Despite challenges, the speaker has a continued narrative resulting from the experience.
Everywhere you see, everyone is chasing her down
Restating the widespread pursuit of the woman by everyone.
She's a masterpiece, the only good I've ever found
Reaffirming the woman's exceptional qualities as a masterpiece and a positive find.
