Keep You Close
Anthem Lights Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Indecision it's so clear to me now
So much thinking had blurred my vision
And fogged up my mind no more confusion
It's so clear to me now
So I'm done hesitating
It's amazing how all the places you could be
And everywhere that I might go
I just wanna keep you close
Yeah, I just wanna keep you close
So let's go driving no destination
We'll draw our own map see what we find
It could be so easy
It's amazing how all the places you could be
You somehow ended up with me
And everywhere that I might go
I just wanna keep you close
Yeah, I just wanna keep you close
Baby, we should probably try
To take this slow but it
It's just so hard to not
Let go of all control
It's amazing how all the places you could be
You somehow ended up with me
And everywhere that I might go
I just wanna keep you close
Yeah, I just wanna keep you close
I just wanna keep you close
The lyrics of Anthem Lights's "Keep You Close" convey a sense of clarity and decisiveness in the singer's emotions towards someone special. The song begins with the singer expressing a strong desire to no longer waste time on indecision, highlighting the importance of clarity and focus in their thoughts and feelings. The lines "So much thinking had blurred my vision, And fogged up my mind no more confusion" suggest a realization that overthinking has clouded their perception but now they see things clearly and are ready to stop hesitating.
The chorus of the song reflects the singer's amazement at the serendipity of their connection with the person they care about. Despite all the possible places they could have been, they ended up together, leading to a desire to keep them close. The repetition of "I just wanna keep you close" emphasizes the singer's strong emotional attachment and longing for proximity to this significant person in their life.
The subsequent verses paint a picture of carefree spontaneity and adventure, as the singer suggests going on a drive with no particular destination in mind, allowing them to create their own journey and discover new experiences together. This sense of freedom and exploration is juxtaposed with the underlying theme of a desire for closeness and intimacy, as seen in the lines "I just wanna keep you close." The singer seems to find comfort and joy in the idea of sharing moments and experiences with this person.
The final verse introduces a hint of apprehension and vulnerability, as the singer acknowledges the challenge of trying to take things slow in a relationship despite the temptation to let go of control. This internal struggle reflects the complexity of emotions involved in caring deeply for someone while also grappling with uncertainties and fears. Ultimately, the repeated declaration of wanting to "keep you close" encapsulates the singer's unwavering commitment to cherishing and nurturing the bond they share with the person they hold dear.
