Lyrics
Everyone's gonna be out at Basement Friday
Anticipation of a gathering at Basement on Friday.
I could hop on the red eye tonight from Oakland
Contemplating traveling from Oakland on a red-eye flight.
It's a long way to get there from California
Acknowledging the distance from California to the destination.
I don't know maybe I’ll make it to the next one
Uncertainty about attending the next gathering.
When we've got to leave
Raising the question of where to go when it's time to leave.
Where we gonna go?
Expressing uncertainty about the future destination.
Where there's water in the air
Desiring a place with a positive atmosphere (water in the air).
And people that we know?
Seeking the company of familiar people in the chosen destination.
Maybe in the end
Contemplating the possibility that everything is a dream in the end.
This all ends up a dream
Reflecting on the transient nature of experiences.
Always good to feel
Highlighting the value of feeling truly acknowledged.
Like you're really being seen
Emphasizing the importance of genuine visibility in relationships.
Don't know where we'll be when it ends
Expressing uncertainty about the future and where they'll be.
If you're there with me
Suggesting that being together makes any place feel like heaven.
It might as well be in heaven
Highlighting the positive impact of companionship.
Come in the spring
Referencing a specific time, possibly symbolizing renewal and hope.
It's so nice
Expressing appreciation for the pleasant qualities of spring.
I'll show you a place I found
Promising to share a discovered place with someone special.
Trying to get the time off
Indicating a willingness to make time for the relationship.
Nobody comes around
Noting the absence of visitors to the mentioned place.
