Dave Matthews Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All of content and dreaming I have been
Cause I've been lately seeing
Quite a bit of this woman live on my street
People stare and we just ignore everything
People stare and we just ignore them
And they go away, go away
She comes to me
I watch her drink
I watch her comb her hair
Both say that we never before have
Felt as recently
People stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the worrying about
She and me go to place quiet
Where we are quite alone
Kiss and we hold together
We will be until we're done
People stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the worrying about
Walk and talk, we both do quite well
And kissing all the time, kissing all the time
And I'm looking forward to much more
Both say that we never before
Never before have we felt so recently
People stare and we just ignore everything
People stare and we just ignore them
And they go away, go away
The song "Recently" by Dave Matthews Band is about a man who has been seeing a woman he met on his street. The lyrics describe how they have been spending time together and how they feel about each other. The singer of the song states that he has been content and dreaming lately because of his time with the woman. He talks about how people stare at them but they ignore them and allow them to "do the worrying."
The song has a mellow rhythm with soothing guitar riffs and a consistent drum beat. The lyrics describe a romantic relationship between the singer and the woman he met on his street. Despite the stares and judgment from others, the two continue to see each other and enjoy each other's company.
The song conveys the idea that sometimes love can be found in unexpected places and that it's important to stay true to yourself despite the opinions of others. The lyric "Let their eyes do the worrying about" suggests that the judgment and stares of others do not affect the relationship.

Recently I've been
Lately, I've been
All of content and dreaming I have been
I have been content and dreaming a lot
Cause I've been lately seeing
Because I have recently seen
Quite a bit of this woman live on my street
I have seen this woman who lives on my street quite often
People stare and we just ignore everything
People stare at us, but we ignore everything else
People stare and we just ignore them
We ignore people who stare at us
And they go away, go away
Eventually, they leave us alone
She comes to me
She approaches me
I watch her drink
I observe her while she drinks
I watch her comb her hair
I watch her while she combs her hair
Both say that we never before have
We both say that we have never before
Felt as recently
Felt this way recently
What's the use in hiding out
There is no point in hiding
She says all the time
She constantly says
Let their eyes do the worrying about
Let others worry about us, we don't care
She and me go to place quiet
We go to a quiet place
Where we are quite alone
Where we are completely alone
Kiss and we hold together
We kiss and embrace each other
We will be until we're done
We will continue this until we're finished
Walk and talk, we both do quite well
We walk and talk well together
And kissing all the time, kissing all the time
We kiss each other all the time
And I'm looking forward to much more
I am excited for what's to come
Never before have we felt so recently
We have never previously felt this way recently

It should be obvious to EVERYONE with a brain, we have a faction controlling EVERYTHING at the top, using frequencies to control humanity. They've taken happy, and uplifting music off the radio, and replaced it with sad, angry, and depressed vibrations. The People of Earth NEED to stand up and take the World back from this evil trans-national criminal cabal.
@adamhicks24
