Ginger Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got a little lost in the wilderness back there but I ain't forgotten how to smile
And sometimes you wanna give up; well I guess there ain't no easy way down
But I swear that it's always worth the pain when you get to turn it around
I wanna live on the Casino Bay
Say goodbye and then fly away
I could hang around for years
I wanna stretch out underneath the sun
It's time for you to be the lonely one
Well I guess I ain't the only one
The only one who's ever felt this way
Goodbye baby
While I can't deny there've been bad times I'm satisfied that I made it through
I guess a guy's gotta die quite a few times before he gets to feeling brand new
Yeah once you get rid of the old skin you're gonna wake up to a fine new day
Feeling the sun while the old you is gone somewhere along the way
I wanna live on the Casino Bay
Say goodbye and then fly away
I could hang around for years
But I can't see no reason for staying here another day
I wanna stretch out underneath the sun
It's time for you to be the lonely one
Well I guess I ain't the only one
The only one who's ever felt this way
Goodbye baby
Goodbye baby
"In the unlikely event of oxygen being required,
Masks will drop down automatically.
Place the mask over your nose and mouth,
With the elastic around your head, and breathe normally.
You must fit your own mask before helping others.
Adults' lifejackets must only be inflated when you're outside the aircraft
Thank you Ladies and Gentlemen for your attention
And we wish you a pleasant flight with ****** Airways"
I wanna wake up on Casino Bay
Say goodbye and then fly away
I could hang around for years
But I can't see no reason for staying here another day
I wanna wake up underneath the sun
It's time for you to be the lonely one
Well I guess I ain't the only one
The only one who's ever felt this way
Goodbye baby
Goodbye baby
Goodbye baby
The lyrics of "Casino Bay" by Ginger seem to be about moving forward and leaving behind the past troubles. The lyrics talk about how the singer has gone through a lot of hard times and has had to die many times to feel new again. Yet, the singer mentions that he is happy to change with the times and move forward. As he sings, he feels that he doesn't have any reason to stay where he is anymore and wants to go off to Casino Bay - a place where he can stretch out under the sun and be himself.
The singer also seems to be talking to someone else, perhaps his significant other, asking her to let him go and be lonely for a while. The song ends with a clear message of goodbye, indicating that the singer is ready to let go of his past and move on to a new beginning.
Overall, "Casino Bay" seems to be a song that's meant to inspire others to push through hard times and move forward towards something better, even if it means leaving behind people and things that no longer serve them.
