Los Angeles
Capturing the Bright Essence of Los Angeles: A Musical Journey
Lyrics
Hey you, who looked at me the other day
Addressing someone who looked at the speaker recently.
Suddenly, Los Angeles isn't quite the same
Los Angeles undergoes a change, possibly influenced by the mentioned person.
And you would never be with someone quite like me
The speaker believes they are unique and the listener wouldn't be with someone like them without understanding them.
Unless you took the time to see
Encouraging the listener to take the time to understand the speaker.
Hey, Los Angeles is brighter by the day
Los Angeles is becoming more vibrant or positive for the speaker.
And suddenly The Angels starts to feel like a good name
The idea of "The Angels" becomes appealing or meaningful.
And if you look away
If the listener looks away, it's the angels that the speaker holds responsible.
It's only the angels that I'll blame
Attributing any negative outcome to angels if the listener looks away.
Hey, it's your party and I'm good to wait in line
The speaker is willing to wait in line at the listener's party.
Suddenly, there's nowhere else I'd rather be tonight
The speaker expresses contentment being with the listener in Los Angeles.
And if you and your three names have the time
Referring to the listener having three names; willingness to make an effort.
I'll even tip the bouncer as I pass by
Willingness to tip the bouncer, indicating eagerness to get closer to the listener.
Hey, Los Angeles is brighter by the day
Reiteration of Los Angeles becoming brighter for the speaker.
And suddenly The Angels starts to feel like a good name
Reinforcement of the positive association with "The Angels."
And if you look away
Blaming angels if the listener looks away, suggesting a reliance on external forces.
It's only the angels that I'll blame
Continued association of negative outcomes with angels.
I'll leave your contact in my phone
Saving the listener's contact as a memento for the future.
Something to look back on when we've grown apart
Recognizing the possibility of growing apart but holding on to the contact.
'Cause suddenly the angels start to sing
Angels starting to sing symbolizes a significant and positive change.
And they have this way of screwing up my dreams
Angels interfering with or complicating the speaker's dreams.
Hey, Los Angeles is brighter by the day
Repetition of Los Angeles becoming brighter, reinforcing the positive change.
And suddenly The Angels starts to feel like a good name
Reiteration of the positive association with "The Angels."
And when you look away
Blaming angels if the listener looks away, maintaining the theme of external influence.
It's only the angels that I'll blame
Continued attribution of negative outcomes to angels.
It's only the angels that I'll blame
Final repetition of blaming angels, emphasizing their role in potential setbacks.
