Love Will Tell Us Where to Go
Bridgit Mendler Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It doesn't matter what you say
I see the sun begin to set
And we gotta, gotta get away
I gotta patch of open road
I already miss you with all of my soul
So before we both get old
I think we gotta, gotta get away
I keep wishing for all the tickets
Stack 'em on my wall
Let's rip them down
And leave the town before the cops can call
And bring us back
Cover our tracks in the dust
I think we must
Take on the world
Let's go crazy
Love will tell us where to go
I'll be your girl, be my baby
Love will tell us where to go
Oh oh oh through a dark night
Oh oh oh without a sunrise
Oh oh oh and we will be alright
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go
The wheels on this train keep turning
We're flying with the birds
And the worlds so bright
It hurts when we're on the getaway
I'm the Bonnie to your Clyde
You're the mood and I'm the tide
I, I want this for all of my life
Since the night that we got away
I keep wishing for all the tickets
Stack 'em on my wall
Let's rip them down
And leave the town before the cops can call
And bring us back
Cover our tracks in the dust
I think we must
Take on the world
Let's go crazy
Love will tell us where to go
I'll be your girl, be my baby
Love will tell us where to go
Oh oh oh through a dark night
Oh oh oh without a sunrise
Oh oh oh and we will be alright
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go
When things get rough
When we have loved
We've got enough to tell us where to go
When we get lost
When love is all that we got
To tell us where to go
Then we're alright
We'll be alright
Love will tell us where to go
Then we're alright
We'll be alright
Love will tell us where to go
Take on the world
Let's go crazy
Love will tell us where to go
I'll be your girl, be my baby
Love will tell us where to go
Oh oh oh through a dark night
Oh oh oh without a sunrise
Oh oh oh and we will be alright
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go
Love will tell us where to go

I know exactly how you feel
I understand your emotions completely
It doesn't matter what you say
Your words won't affect my understanding of your emotions
I see the sun begin to set
I notice the sky turning darker as the sun sets
And we gotta, gotta get away
We need to escape from our current situation
I gotta patch of open road
I have a clear path to drive away
I already miss you with all of my soul
I feel a strong sense of longing for you already
So before we both get old
We should act now before it's too late
I think we gotta, gotta get away
I strongly believe that we need to escape
Let's rip them down
We should remove the barriers holding us back
And leave the town before the cops can call
We should depart quickly to avoid getting caught
And bring us back
The authorities could come searching for us
Cover our tracks in the dust
We need to hide any signs of our passage
I think we must
I believe it's necessary to do so
Take on the world
We should be adventurous and face whatever comes our way
Let's go crazy
We should act impulsively and enjoy this moment
Love will tell us where to go
Our passion will guide us to the right path
I'll be your girl, be my baby
We should rely on each other in this journey
Oh oh oh through a dark night
Even during tough times, we'll make it through
Oh oh oh without a sunrise
We don't need a clear path to succeed
Oh oh oh and we will be alright
We can overcome any obstacle with love
When things get rough
During hard times
When we have loved
When we have each other
We've got enough to tell us where to go
Our love will guide us
When we get lost
When we feel confused or uncertain
When love is all that we got
Our love for each other is enough
To tell us where to go
To provide direction in our journey
Then we're alright
Then we're okay
We'll be alright
We'll make it through together
Take on the world
Be fearless and live life to the fullest
Let's go crazy
Embrace spontaneity and pursue adventure
Love will tell us where to go
Our love and passion will guide us to our destination
I'll be your girl, be my baby
We'll support each other throughout our journey
Oh oh oh through a dark night
Even during times of uncertainty, we'll make it through
Oh oh oh without a sunrise
We don't need a clear direction to succeed
Oh oh oh and we will be alright
As long as we have each other, we can overcome any obstacle
Love will tell us where to go
We can trust our love to guide us in the right direction
