Dakota
Stereophonics Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Summertime think it was June
Yeah, I think it was June
Layin' back head on the grass
Chewing gum havin' some laughs
Yeah, havin' some laughs
You make me feel like the one
The one
Drinkin' by drinkin' for two
Drinkin' with you
When drinkin' was new
Sleepin' in the back of my car
We never went far
We didn't need to go far
You make me feel like the one
Make me feel like the one
The one
You make me feel like the one
Make me feel like the one
The one
I don't know where we are going now
I don't know where we are going now
Wake up call coffee and juice
Remembering you
What happened to you?
I wonder if we'll meet again
Talk about life since then
Talk about why did it end
You make me feel like the one
Make me feel like the one
The one
You make me feel like the one
Make me feel like the one
The one
I don't know where we are going now
I don't know where we are going now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now, now.
The lyrics to Stereophonics' song "Dakota" tell a story of a past romantic relationship that the singer is reflecting on. The opening lines suggest that the singer is lost in thought, remembering a specific moment in the past when they were with the person they are singing about. They recall the summertime, possibly indicating that this was a particularly carefree time in their life. They paint a picture of laying in the grass, chatting and laughing with their partner.
The chorus of the song is particularly poignant, as the singer describes how this person makes them feel like "the one." This could refer to feeling like they are the special person in the world to their partner, or it could be an allusion to the idea of finding "the one" true love. In either case, the song is about the intense feelings of love and connection that the singer has with this person.
Throughout the rest of the song, there are allusions to the end of the relationship, with the singer wondering what happened to their love and if they will ever see them again. The final lines of the song suggest that the singer is still reflecting on their past, but they are also accepting of their current situation and are open to new experiences.
Overall, "Dakota" is a poignant song about lost love, nostalgia, and the power of memories.

Thinking back, thinking of you
Summertime think it was June
Yeah think it was June
Laying back, head on the grass
Chewing gum having some laughs
Yeah having some laughs.
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
Drinking back, drinking for two
Drinking with you
When drinking was new
Sleeping in the back of my car
We never went far
Didn't need to go far
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one

I don’t know where we are going now
So take a look at me now...
