Lyrics

Freeze me with your smile and say my name.

Expressing a desire for attention and acknowledgment through a captivating smile and calling of one's name.

And I'm already gone.

Feeling a sense of departure or disconnection despite the interaction initiated in line 1.

If you're on the 118, I'll find you on the 118.

Committing to finding the person addressed, emphasizing determination and persistence even on a specific highway (the 118).


And if you want, I'll talk.

Willingness to engage in conversation or communicate if desired.

And break my head. The spotlight stares in off.

Feeling vulnerable or exposed under the intense scrutiny of attention, possibly from others or oneself.

If you're on the 118, I'll find you on the 118.

Reiteration of determination to locate the person, reinforcing the commitment expressed earlier.


I swear I care what you wear.

Expressing concern or interest in the other person's appearance or fashion choices.

All your thoughts rolled up and down your sleeves.

Suggesting an interest in understanding the inner thoughts and emotions of the other person, metaphorically represented as rolled up in their clothing.

And I need to see a written invitation please.

Desire to receive a clear and direct invitation, indicating a need for explicit communication or confirmation.


So if you are my fire, then yell my name.

Seeking acknowledgment or confirmation of existence from the person addressed, likening them to a source of warmth or passion.

And up, I'm ready on.

Being prepared or geared up in response to the acknowledgment sought in line 13.

If you're on the 118, I'll find you on the 118.

Reaffirming the commitment to finding the person, reiterating determination even on the highway mentioned earlier.


I swear I care what you wear.

Reiteration of interest in the other person's appearance or attire, emphasizing its significance.

All your thoughts rolled up and down your sleeves.

Continued interest in understanding the thoughts and emotions of the other person, emphasizing their importance and visibility.

And I need to see a written invitation please.

Repetition of the desire for a clear and explicit invitation, stressing the need for direct communication.

Yeah I need to see a written invitation please.

Emphasizing the persistent need for a written invitation, echoing the request made earlier.

Yeah I need to see a written invitation

Reiteration of the desire for a clear, explicit invitation, closing the song with a reaffirmation of this need.
