Sunday Driver
The Limp Twins Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I see sunlight
creeping in through a hole in the wall
I get a funny feeling
I should go outside

I can't stand to be
cooped up in doors
gonna get my car
come around to yours




And maybe I'll take baby
for a ride

It's been sometime
since I've been shut out
on the road
With the blue skies in front of me
I can let the past turn me round

Let's get ourselves lost
in the midsummer haze,
down the cool country lanes
that meander for days

and maybe I'll take baby
for a ride

and maybe
I'll take baby
for a ride.

Love is electrified
current creates motion

(and maybe
I'll take baby
for a ride)

Glamour of countryside
rolls like the ocean

(and maybe
I'll take baby
for a ride)

Overall Meaning

The Limp Twins' "Sunday Driver" is a song about the desire to escape from the mundane aspects of daily life and go on a joyride with a loved one.

Driving down the country lanes and losing themselves in the midsummer haze is a metaphor for two people getting lost in each other. The possibilities of the open road and the glamour of the countryside create a sense of adventure and excitement in the singer's mind. He feels a sense of liberation as he drives towards the blue skies, leaving the past behind.


The song's lyrics are poignant in their simplicity and convey a sense of carefree freedom that many people can relate to. The Limp Twins' soulful vocals, backed by a jazzy melody, create a dreamy atmosphere that adds to the song's overall mood.
