Lauren Marie
Girls Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've gotta try to wear a smile no matter how hard it can be to do
I could make myself go crazy crying over times I've chased my broken dreams
But what is life without a dream and even I know dreams can still come true
Oh Lauren Marie
I might never get my arms around you but that doesn't mean that I won't try
Oh Lauren Marie
You might never want me but that doesn't mean that you won't get me high
Oh Lauren Marie
Oh Lauren Marie
Oh-oh Lauren Marie
Oh Lauren Marie
Oh Lauren Marie
Oh Lauren Marie
Oh-oh Lauren Marie
Oh Lauren Marie
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm headed somewhere
And it's not my time to die
Take a look up, Lauren
The clouds make way for the sunshine
No I'm never gonna fix up
And I might be crazy
But I really got it going on
Listen to me now I'm singing you a new song
The song "Lauren Marie" by Girls is a mesmerizing ode to hope and determination. The lyrics convey the message that it is important to stay positive and never give up hope on one's dreams, no matter how tough things might seem. The song talks about having the courage to keep going and never lose faith in oneself, despite the many inevitable obstacles that come in life.
The opening lyrics suggest that it's unhealthy to ruminate over negative thoughts as it only exacerbates one's feelings of despair. The songwriter urges the listener to try and put on a smile, no matter how hard it might be to do so. The following verse talks about how people can go crazy overpast regrets and broken dreams. However, the only way to go ahead in life is to hold onto a dream and have faith that it could still come true. The chorus goes on to talk about how the singer may not be able to hold onto Lauren Marie, but that would not stop him from trying. He pleads that even if Marie does not reciprocate his feelings, he would still feel high just being around her. The last verse reassures that even if we are unsure of where we're headed in life, it's important to keep going and never give up hope. The final words urge to sing a new song as an affirmation of the possibility of new beginnings.
