Finding You
Journey of Serendipity: Seeking, Losing, and Finding
Lyrics
What would you do if you turned around
Contemplating a hypothetical scenario of the listener turning around and encountering the speaker.
And saw me beside you
Imagining the speaker being physically present beside the listener.
Not in a dream but in a song?
Contrasting the idea with reality, questioning if this encounter is in a song or a dream.
Would you float like a phantom
Asking how the listener would react - either with detachment ("float like a phantom") or active participation ("sing along").
Or would you sing along?
Continuing the theme of the listener's response to the speaker's presence in the hypothetical scenario.
Don't know where I'm going
Expressing uncertainty and lack of direction in the speaker's own journey.
Don't know where it's flowing
Continuing the theme of uncertainty, emphasizing the unknown destination and path.
But I know it's finding you
Asserting the certainty that the speaker's journey is leading to the listener.
What would you do
Posing another hypothetical scenario, this time involving the speaker driving by in a car.
If you saw me driving by in a car
Extending the hypothetical situation, asking about the listener's reaction to the speaker's swift movement.
The quickest you've ever seen me spin?
Describing the speed of the speaker's action, creating an image of rapid movement.
Would you smile and wave
Asking how the listener would respond - either with a friendly gesture ("smile and wave") or a more formal invitation ("bow and get in").
Or would you bow and get in?
Continuing the exploration of the listener's potential reactions to the speaker's actions.
Don't know where I'm going
Reiterating the speaker's uncertainty about their own path and destination.
Don't know where it's flowing
Continuing the theme of the unknown, emphasizing the unpredictable nature of the speaker's journey.
But I know it's finding you
Reaffirming the belief that the speaker's journey is destined to find the listener.
But then the lightning finds us
Introducing a change in tone, suggesting a disruptive force ("lightning") that affects the speaker and the listener.
Burns away our kindness
Describing the impact of the disruptive force, potentially eroding kindness or innocence.
We can't find a place to hide
Expressing a sense of vulnerability and a struggle to find refuge or escape.
Come the rainy season
Referring to a challenging period ("rainy season") where surrendering to betrayals or conflicts is inevitable.
Surrender to our treasons
Acknowledging the acceptance of betrayals, questioning if tears can still be found.
Can we even find our tears?
Reflecting on the difficulty of finding genuine emotions amidst challenges and conflicts.
Don't know where I'm going
Repeating the theme of uncertainty about the speaker's direction and destination.
Don't know where it's flowing
Reiterating the unpredictability of the speaker's journey, emphasizing the unknown path.
But I know it's finding you
Affirming the belief that, despite uncertainties, the speaker's journey is directed towards the listener.
