City Of Angels
BYNON Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, for the longest time
Before I knew your name
I'd see your face in crowds
And feel you in the rain
Oh, wishper (??)
I never had a chance
So I drove a thousand miles
Until I heard your voice
Yeah, all of these years and all of these faces
I was looking for love in all the wrong places




Yeah, it's turning me on surrounded by strangers
When you're looking for love in the city of angels

Overall Meaning

The opening lyrics of BYNON's song City of Angels suggests a sense of longing for a person that the singer has never met, but has been seeing in crowds and feeling in the rain for the longest time. The lyrics also include a confession of how the person has been searching for love in all the wrong places and how they have driven a thousand miles just to hear the voice of the person they were longing for. This sentiment is further emphasized in the chorus where the singer talks about how being in the city of angels and surrounded by strangers is turning them on as they seek love in this new place.

Line by Line Meaning

Oh, for the longest time
It felt like a really long time since I felt this way


Before I knew your name
Even before I knew your name or met you, I had this feeling


I'd see your face in crowds
Whenever I was in a crowd, I would see the image of your face in my mind


And feel you in the rain
When it rained, I would feel your presence around me


Oh, wishper (??)
Oh, I wish I could whisper to you everything I feel


I never had a chance
I never had an opportunity to express my feelings for you


So I drove a thousand miles
I drove a long distance to get close to you


Until I heard your voice
I finally heard your voice after traveling a long distance


Yeah, all of these years and all of these faces
I've been searching for love for years, but only found disappointment


I was looking for love in all the wrong places
I was searching for love in the wrong way or with the wrong people


Yeah, it's turning me on surrounded by strangers
Being surrounded by strangers is making me feel excited


When you're looking for love in the city of angels
Searching for love in the city of Los Angeles can be challenging and overwhelming

LYRICS

Oh, for the longest time
Before I knew your name
I'd see your face in crowds
And feel you in the rain
Oh, whisper barely how
I never had a choice
So I drove a thousand miles
Until I heard your voice

Yeah, all these years and all these faces
I was looking for love in all the wrong places
Yeah, it's hard to be you surrounded by strangers
When you're looking for love in the city of angels
Looking for love, looking for love (Looking for love in the city of angels)
Oh, love, love, loving
(Looking for love in the city of angels)
Oh, love, love, loving (Looking for love)
They come from across the world
To see the leading lights
Trying so hard to fit in
But them drunks and the pills
And the wild nights
Without love and lost
Chasing the dream and fell as
With every line we cross
It makes me think of you
Know that I had long to
I now as lost

Yeah, all these years and all these faces
I was looking for love in all the wrong places
Yeah, it's hard to be surrounded by strangers
When you're looking for love in the city of angels
Looking for love, looking for love (Looking for love in the city of angels)
Oh, love, love, loving
Looking for love in the city of angels (Looking for love, looking for love)
Oh, love, love, loving
Looking for love in the city of angels (Looking for love, looking for love)
Oh, love, love, loving
