Something Great
Direction One Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You say we'll be together even when you're lost
One day you'll say these words
I thought you'll never say
You say we're better off together in our bed
I want you here with me
Like how I pictured it
Come on, jump out at me
Come on, bring everything
Is it too much to ask for something great?
The script was written and I could not change a thing
I want to rip it all to shreds and start again
One day I'll come into your world and get it right
I'll say we're better off together here tonight
I want you here with me
Like how I pictured it
So I don't have to keep imagining
Come on, jump out at me
Come on, bring everything
Is it too much to ask for something great?
I want you here with me
Like how I pictured it
So I don't have to keep imagining
Come on, jump out at me
Come on, bring everything
Is it too much to ask for something great?
I want you here with me
Like how I pictured it
Is it too much to ask for something great?
You're all I want
So much it's hurting
You're all I want
So much it's hurting
Direction One's song "Something Great" is about the desire to be with someone who feels the same way. The first verse talks about how the person the singer wants to be with will come into their world and say all the things they've been waiting to hear. They will assure the singer that they will be together even when things get tough, and this is something the singer never thought they would hear. They want to be with this person, in their bed, and not have to imagine it anymore.
The second verse talks about how the script has already been written, and the singer wants to rip it all up and start again. They want to come into the other person's world and get it right this time, and they want the assurance that they are better off together. The chorus repeats the desire for the other person to be with them, how they envisioned it, and how they want them to come into their life without holding anything back. The bridge repeats the chorus, emphasizing how much they want the other person and how it is hurting them.
The song conveys the longing and passion of someone who wants to be with someone else, but also the fear and uncertainty of whether the other person feels the same way. The desire for something great in their relationship is a recurring theme, and the singer's vulnerability is evident in the lyrics. The song's tone and melody are upbeat and catchy, and the chorus is especially memorable.
