City Lights
D. Xplodé Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Come here lay with me
I know this is not a bed
The city lights will comfort us down
Are we getting numb
Or this is a side effect
Of me and you craving for some more time (For us)
Asumo que quieres verme desfallecer
Si tan solo se pudiera repitir el placer
Here we are
Watching the stars
Getting drunk
Under these city lights
Hello
We can make room to talk and sip
Embracing the (City lights)
Let's just slow the time down
Escaping into the night
You choose to get on this ride
Meet me on the other side
You know the memories will fade
Until then you can just press replay
Asumo que quieres verme desfallecer
Ahora que te tengo en mi contra la pared
Si tan solo se pudiera repitir el placer
(Just don't forget me)
Here we are now
Watching the stars
Getting drunk
Under these city lights
I don't mind you beating me up
As long as I can just touch your skin
Nevermind
The song "City Light" by D. Xplodé is an emotional ballad about two people who are seeking comfort and solace in each other beneath the flickering lights of the city. The artist contemplates whether their detachment from reality and numbness is the result of the pleasure they seek or a side effect of their desire for each other. Despite this, the city lights bring them together and offer them solace from their problems. The lyrics also hint at the fact that the experience of being in each other's company is fleeting and the memories will fade away as time goes on, but for the moment, they will hold on to this experience tightly.
The chorus of the song reinforces the idea that both the individuals are enjoying their time together under the city lights. They are getting drunk, watching the stars, and embracing the moment. In the bridge, it is unclear whether the lyrics are meant to be taken literally or figuratively. The artist says that they don't mind being hit as long as they can touch the other person's skin. This line can be interpreted as either physical abuse or emotional vulnerability.
Overall, "City Light" is a romantic ballad with a haunting quality that captures the fleeting nature of human connections. It speaks to the human desire for escapism and comfort, even if it is temporary.

I'm packin' my bags that I didn't unpack the last time
I'm sayin', "See you again, " so many times, it's becoming my tagline
But you know the truth, I'd rather hold you
Than try to catch this flight
So many things I'd rather say
But for now, it's goodbye
You say I'm always leavin'
You, when you're sleepin' alone
But the, the car's outside
But I don't wanna go tonight
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
Unless you pack your bags
You're comin' with me
I'm tired of lovin' from afar
And never being where you are
Close the windows, lock the doors
Don't wanna leave you anymore
Oh-oh, ah
I'm starin' at the same four walls in a different hotel
It's an unfamiliar feelin' but I know it so well
Oh, but you know the truth, I'd rather hold you
Than this mobile in my hand
But I guess it'll do, 'cause for you
I would run up my phone bill
You say I'm always leavin'
You, when you need me the most
But the, the car's outside
But I don't wanna go tonight
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
Unless you pack your bags
You're comin' with me
I'm tired of lovin' from afar
And never being where you are
Close the windows, lock the doors
Don't wanna leave you anymore
Ooh-ooh, ah
Ooh-ooh, ah
Ooh-ooh, ah
Don't wanna leave you anymore
Oh, darling, all of the city lights
Never shine as bright as your eyes
I would trade them all for a minute more
But the car's outside
And he's called me twice
But he's gonna have to wait tonight
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
Unless you pack your bags
You're comin' with me
I'm tired of lovin' from afar
And never being where you are
Close the windows, lock the doors
Don't wanna leave you anymore
Ooh-ooh, ah
Ooh-ooh, ah
Ooh-ooh, ah
No, I don't wanna leave you anymore
I don't wanna leave you
(Ooh-ooh, ah) I don't wanna leave you
(Ooh-ooh, ah) I don't wanna leave you
Don't wanna leave you anymore
