Sparks Fly
Igniting Dreams: Widespread Sparks Fly in the Night Sky
Lyrics
Waits all day for the Sun to dim his brights
Anticipation as he waits for the Sun to dim, signaling the end of the day.
Face shinin' amber in the radio lights
His face illuminated in amber by the lights of the radio.
It's all that he needs to see
The simple pleasure of seeing the dimming Sun is all he needs.
Fire ignites when he turns the key
The excitement and energy when he starts the engine.
Wonder what it could be like
Curiosity about the experience he's about to have.
Just look then he's gone
Quick departure after a brief look.
Pay attention and you might
Encouragement to observe closely to understand how he creates excitement.
See just how he makes sparks fly
He generates sparks, metaphorically igniting interest or enthusiasm.
Hands on the wheel, he's a permanent fixture
He's a consistent and unwavering presence behind the wheel.
Reads hot rod mags like Holy Scripture
He immerses himself in hot rod magazines with dedication.
He ignores the brake pedal like step-daddy's child
Ignoring caution, akin to a neglected step-child.
Feel him pushing on the gas like a motherless wife
Intensity and urgency, pushing the gas pedal fervently.
Wonder what it could be like
Continued curiosity about the experience.
Just look then he's gone
Swift disappearance after a glance.
Pay attention and you might
Encouragement to observe closely for understanding.
See just how he makes sparks fly
Reiteration of his ability to create excitement.
While you're trying to think of
Reflecting on why personal dreams were not realized.
Why you never could become
The inability to achieve one's aspirations.
Things you dreamed of
Contemplating unfulfilled dreams.
Hot night sky he watch sparks fly
Observing sparks in the night sky, possibly a metaphor for missed opportunities.
Highway birds, sunrise, paradise
Imagery of a scenic highway, a beautiful sunrise, and a sense of paradise.
Cinderella's morning appetite
Reference to Cinderella's morning and the appetite for a new day.
Squintin' his eyes and the driver kills his lights
Squinting eyes as the driver turns off the lights.
Ignites his stash, he's a Plymouth Satellite
Igniting his stash, likely a drug reference, in a Plymouth Satellite car.
Wonder what it could be like
Continued curiosity about the experience of the journey.
Just look then he's gone
Quick disappearance after another look.
Pay attention and you might
Encouragement to closely observe for insight.
See just how he makes sparks fly
Reiteration of his ability to create excitement.
While you're trying to think of
Reflecting on unfulfilled personal dreams.
Why you never could become,
The persistent inability to achieve one's aspirations.
Things you dreamed of
Contemplating dreams that were never realized.
Hot night sky he watch sparks fly
Observing sparks in the night sky, reinforcing the theme of missed opportunities.
Wonder what it could be like'
Repeating the curiosity about the potential experience.
Just look then he's gone'
Another quick disappearance after looking.
Pay attention and you might
Reiteration of the encouragement to observe closely.
See just how he makes sparks fly
Emphasizing his skill in generating excitement.
While you're trying to think of
Reflecting on persistent unfulfilled personal dreams.
Why you never could become
The enduring inability to achieve desired aspirations.
Things you dreamed of
Continued contemplation of dreams that remain unrealized.
Hot night sky he watch sparks
Observing sparks in the night sky, reinforcing the theme of missed opportunities.
Hot night sky he watch sparks fly
Repeating the observation of sparks in the night sky.
