Buddha
Holl & Rush & Tom & Jame Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well I can see the stars
Shining in the night
And I have traveled far
Following the light
I've been following the light

Well I've been on this road
A pilgrim of sorts
I carry my load
As I go from port to port
As I go from port to port

After all is said and done
Beauty's in our eyes
And I don't need to run
Or believe in all their eyes
Or believe in all their lies

Yeah I can see the stars
Shining in the night
And I have traveled far




Following the light
I've been following the light

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Holl & Rush & Tom & Jame's song Buddha are about a journey of self-exploration and discovery. The opening lines set the scene of a dark night sky, with the singer looking up at the stars, feeling small in the vast expanse of the universe. The lines "I've been traveling far, following the light" suggest that the singer is on a journey, perhaps a spiritual or emotional one, searching for some kind of truth or meaning in their life.


The second stanza reinforces this idea, with the singer describing themselves as a pilgrim carrying a metaphorical load as they travel from port to port. The repetition of the phrase "as I go from port to port" emphasizes the idea of a journey, both physically and metaphorically. The final stanza is an expression of the singer's personal philosophy - that beauty is subjective and can be found in the eyes of the beholder, despite what others may tell them. The repetition of the opening lines brings the song full circle, suggesting that despite the challenges and obstacles faced during their journey, the singer has found some kind of peace or resolution in their quest for self-discovery.
