Lost In Malibu
Lost in the Echoes of Love: Tim Bernard's Malibu MelancholyLyrics
I been cruising in the pouring rain
Cruising in the pouring rain, setting the scene of the narrator's emotional journey.
And the moon is lighting up the way
The moon illuminating the path, a metaphor for hope or guidance.
But I still see ya
Despite moving forward, the narrator still sees the past.
In my rearview mirror
Reflection on memories in the rearview mirror as distance increases.
The farther I drive away
Memories fading as physical distance grows.
The more the memories fade
Driving away emphasizes the fading of memories.
And I know that you're gone but I miss you tonight
Recognizing the absence of a loved one and feeling the void.
And I've tried to move on about a thousand times
Struggling to move on despite numerous attempts.
I keep hearing all the music that you used to play
Hearing music associated with the absent person, intensifying the longing.
But it's so different when you're not here with me
The absence changes the experience of familiar things.
I'm running through every red light
Reckless behavior as a manifestation of emotional turmoil.
Cause without you I feel like I'm losing my mind
Feeling mentally adrift without the significant other.
I'm running through every red light

I wouldn't be driving alone in the rain

Driving under the stars and I'm so tired of
Driving under the stars, expressing weariness and longing.
Wondering where you are

Take me back to the start

When you told me that we'd
