Galaxies
FAWNN Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was wondering where you were
The static in the air
I could hardly see you there
There was something I could swear
I can’t move now

And the city air
I wanted to see you there
I'm hoping for what you'd wear
I've been wondering what to wear
I can’t move now

Honestly, you stole my heart
Now that we’re allowed to touch it's over
Galaxies inside

I was working, and there you were 
The sun was in your hair
Should we run away from the dark
and stare into the light 
Up all night

And the city air 
Is blowing your golden hair
I’m trying to keep us here
I’ve been trying but can’t see clear

Honestly, you stole my heart




Now that we’re allowed to touch it's over
Galaxies inside

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Fawnn's song "Galaxies" seem to depict a yearning and longing for someone, possibly a romantic interest, who seems to be elusive or distant. The singer expresses a sense of wanting to be close to this person, but feeling a certain barrier or obstacle in connecting with them. The lines "I was wondering where you were / The static in the air / I could hardly see you there" evoke a sense of confusion and uncertainty in trying to locate the other person.


The mention of the city air and the desire to see this person there suggests a setting where the two individuals might have crossed paths or have a chance encounter. The singer seems to be fixated on the idea of being with this person and is lost in contemplation about their presence and appearance. The lyrics "I'm hoping for what you'd wear / I've been wondering what to wear" hint at a desire to make a good impression or to match the other person's style.


The chorus of the song reveals a deeper emotional connection, as the singer confesses that the other person has "stolen" their heart. This sentiment is juxtaposed with the acknowledgment that now that they can be physically close or touch, the magic or allure may be fading ("it's over / Galaxies inside"). This could suggest a sense of disillusionment or a realization that the idealized image of this person may not align with reality.


As the lyrics progress, there are references to the sun illuminating the other person's hair and the temptation to escape darkness and embrace the light together. The imagery of being "up all night" and the city air blowing golden hair conveys a sense of spontaneity and a desire for adventure or intimacy. However, there is also a sense of inner conflict or confusion, as the singer struggles to maintain clarity and hold onto the connection they feel with this person.


Overall, the lyrics of "Galaxies" by Fawnn delve into themes of longing, desire, and the complexities of human connection. The song captures the bittersweet nature of relationships, where the exhilaration of falling for someone is tempered by the challenges of navigating emotions and expectations. The imagery of galaxies inside hints at the vast, uncharted depths of the heart and the cosmic magnitude of love and longing.
