Woke Up
Yearning Roads and Melodies: Woke Up by Zachary Lucky
Lyrics
I woke up just wishing to be
The speaker wakes up yearning for something.
Just lost on the road or lost in a dream
Expresses a desire to be either physically lost on a road or lost in a dream.
With you by my side and Townes on the radio
Wants to be with someone (likely a partner) while listening to music by Townes Van Zandt on the radio.
Just singin' something about Waitin' For The Day
Refers to singing a song about longing for a certain day to arrive.
Someday you'll wake up and know the pain I've been feeling
Suggests a hope that someday the person the speaker is addressing will understand the pain they've been experiencing.
You'll pack your bags and go
Implies a potential future departure of the addressed person.
With no words to say and nowhere to go
Describes the departure of the person with a lack of communication and direction.
Just something about having to make it on your own
Highlights the idea of having to fend for oneself in challenging situations.
As I watched you pull your car away
Observing the departure of the person, wondering about their destination.
I'll wonder where you're going, will I see you someday
The speaker wonders if they'll ever meet the person again.
Just lost along the road like we used to be
Reiterates the desire to be lost on a road similar to past experiences.
Just singin' Bob Dylan's "Song to Woody"
Mentions singing Bob Dylan's "Song to Woody" as a nostalgic reference.
The months and the years they will pass
Reflects on the passing of time, acknowledging that months and years will go by.
And I'll wonder where you've been, did you find home at last
Continues the wondering about the addressed person's whereabouts, questioning if they've found a place to call home.
And are you still singing those sad and lonesome songs
Questions whether the person is still singing sorrowful songs.
The same way used to when we were all alone
Recalls past moments of singing sad songs together when they were alone.
I woke up just wishing to be
Repeats the desire to wake up with a longing feeling.
Just lost on the road or lost in a dream
Reiterates the desire to be lost, mirroring earlier sentiments.
With you by my side and Townes on the radio
Desires to be with someone (likely the same person as earlier) while listening to music by Townes Van Zandt.
Just singin' something about Waitin' For The Day
Refers again to singing a song about waiting for a specific day to arrive.
