THE 405
Navigating Love's Divide: A Musical Journey on the 405
Lyrics
The Damn freeway's backed up tonight. How am I gonna get to the other side
The freeway is congested tonight, causing difficulty in reaching the other side.
Detours take our precious time. We got nothing between us but the 405
Alternate routes consume our valuable time. The only thing separating us is the 405 freeway.
There's not gonna be a high speed chase no sneaking in to that diamond lane
There won't be a reckless pursuit or finding a secretive way into the faster lane reserved for specific vehicles.
Time is gonna tell me what it's all about I got everything I need right now.
The passage of time will reveal the true meaning, but presently, I possess all I require.
We've got life behind us, open skies above. The walls of the canyon on either side
We have our past, vast skies above us, and steep canyon walls on either side.
But in front of us now is a great divide and there's nothing between us but the 405
Currently, there's a significant division ahead, and the only separation between us is the 405 freeway.
Made my way west on a steel string it was an ocean breeze that blew you in
I traveled west using a guitar. A coastal breeze brought you here.
I followed you home got in your head and I left my feathers next to your bed
I accompanied you home, lingered in your thoughts, and left a personal memento beside your bed.
Nothing's forever and change is sure. Tonight is all I'm asking for
Change is inevitable, and I'm only seeking tonight from you.
If I can make over this valley floor I'm gonna come alive when I get to your door
If I overcome this challenge, reaching your doorstep will invigorate me.
We've got life behind us, open skies above. The walls of the canyon on either side
We have our history, expansive skies, and enclosing canyon walls.
But in front of us now is a great divide and there's nothing between us but the 405
There's a significant obstacle ahead, and the only barrier is the 405 freeway.
We've got time, we've got space, we've got music, we've got grace.
We possess time, space, music, and grace.
If we make it out of this city alive I'm gonna scratch our names into a highway sign
If we survive the urban environment, I'll commemorate our bond on a highway sign.
Is it crazy that I feel this way? When I don't even know your middle name..
Expressing intense emotions despite not knowing basic personal details like your middle name.
So I'm holding in what's on my mind cuz when I say it I'm gonna mean it this time
I'm withholding my feelings, intending to express them genuinely this time.
Oh I'm gonna mean it this time.
Emphasizing the sincerity of forthcoming emotions.
We've got life behind us, open skies above. The walls of the canyon on either side
Referencing our shared past, expansive sky, and confining canyon walls.
But in front of us now is a great divide and there's nothing between us but the 405
An imminent obstacle lies ahead, with only the 405 freeway separating us.
