Drive Me Home
Caroline Pennell Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it always takes me home
I think of us and where we stand
How we′ve seen each other grow
Far away we travel
But I feel it in my bones
You keep me warm
You keep me warm
But you still fill the hole
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
In the night, silences
I remember where I am
In the dark, wide awake
Dreaming under your command
(Dreaming under your command)
Far away we travel
But I feel it in my bones
You keep me warm
You keep me warm
A thousand miles of empty space
But you still fill the hole
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me
Do you miss me, like I miss you?
Do you need me, like I need you?
Do you love me, like I love you?
A thousand miles of empty space (do you miss me, like I miss you?)
But you still fill the hole (do you need me, like I need you?)
You drive me home (do you love me, like I love you?)
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me home
You drive me
A thousand miles of empty space (you drive me home)
But you still fill the hole (you drive me home)
You drive me home (you drive me home)
The song "Drive Me Home" by Caroline Pennell is a heartfelt ballad that speaks about the unbreakable bond between two people who have seen each other grow and have been with each other through thick and thin. The song talks about the feeling of being homesick, and how the person you share a connection with reminds you of home, no matter how far apart you may be physically. The lyrics, "I look at you, I see myself, and it always takes me home" implies that when the singer looks at the person she is singing about, she can see herself, as they share the same experiences and have grown together. Even though they may be miles apart, they still have that connection that makes them feel like they are right at home.
As the song progresses, the singer expresses her feelings about missing the person she is singing about. The lines "Do you miss me, like I miss you? Do you need me, like I need you? Do you love me, like I love you?" convey a sense of longing and desire to be with the person she is singing about. The lyrics "In the dark, wide awake, dreaming under your command" implies that even in their dreams, the person the singer is singing about is always present, and their presence makes everything better.
Overall, the song is about the feeling of longing and the sense of belonging that only a person who knows you inside out can give you. It is about the unbreakable bond between two people who grow together, and how that bond can make you feel like you are home no matter where you may be physically.

I look at you, I see myself
You and I are alike in many ways
And it always takes me home
Thinking about you feels like going back to where I belong
I think of us and where we stand
I consider our relationship and its current state
How we've seen each other grow
I reflect on how we have seen each other change and develop
Far away we travel
Despite being far apart from each other
But I feel it in my bones
I can still feel the connection between us
You keep me warm
You provide me with comfort and support
A thousand miles of empty space
Despite the physical distance between us
But you still fill the hole
You still make up for the emptiness and loneliness I feel
You drive me home
You bring me back to my happy and content state
In the night, silences
During quiet moments in the night
I remember where I am
I realize where I currently am in life
In the dark, wide awake
When I am unable to sleep
Dreaming under your command
I am daydreaming of a future with you in control
Do you miss me, like I miss you?
I wonder if you feel the same longing I do
Do you need me, like I need you?
I question if you depend on me like I do on you
Do you love me, like I love you?
I ask if your feelings towards me are as strong as mine are for you

Caroline Pennell about one of her songs: Lovesick
Caroline Pennell wants it all, and she's not afraid to do what it takes to crash the party on her way to the top. Basking in over 12 million Spotify spins for her Felix Snow-helmed "Lovesick," the electro-pop up and comer has been prepping her debut studio album for roughly three years. That's quite a long stretch of highway in pop music, but her spirits have not been dampened. In fact, she's as hungry for superstardom as ever. "[This song] is about me finding my way through the beginning of my career, wanting to have everything at once but also knowing good things take time," she tells Popdust about the song. The accompanying music video, premiering today, taps into the jarring emotional charge surrounding her work, filtered through home-video footage and
encapsulating her fearless heart.
She continues, "This song really represents the first time I realized how badly I wanted to make music and how eager I was to find a sense of artistry within myself. I wanted my first music video to be a visual representation of me as an artist, showcasing my personality mixed with crazy, weird glitchy effects that take you on a visual trip throughout the song."
The visual irregularities serve as puzzle pieces to the story, suitably juxtaposed against the still beauty of the sunset: it's a rather simple production trick but masterfully ensures the song's poetic frankness. "I'm seeing ghost of friendships I've been craving, standing in the line that I've created. So close I should take it," she prays, as flickers of polaroids splash across the screen, as well, grainy and magnificent. The nostalgic skeleton of the track allows it to be the core of Pennell's developing aesthetic. "We looked away then looked right back--though the future got here so fast, so fast, it's a lovesick feeling when you just want it all. It's a knowing that the hardest part is letting go," she later attests on the hook.
Pennell is making the best of the moment, and the boldness is palpable onscreen. "Lovesick" samples her long-waited debut studio record, via Nettwerk Music Group, which is expected later this year.
