Driving One of Your Cars
Ira Losco Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Blinding my eyes when the sparks grew bigger than your lies
You're concealed but still so wonderful so magical
Lining my forehead say can I see if it's me
So Cold So Cold
You leave me there Alone and scared
Cause I'm driving one of your cars
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
If nothing is beautiful then you can't make me stay
I've made up my mind now there's nothing you can say (nothing you can say)
But it's never been your style to waste your time now you're on your own
Can anyone hear what I'm saying or am I alone?
So Cold So Cold
You leave me there Alone and scared
Cause I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
ooh ooh ooh
Yeah Yeah
Yeah Yeah
Cause I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
Ooh ooh ooh
I'm driving one of your cars
The song "Driving One of Your Cars" by Ira Losco follows the story of a person driving one of their ex-partner's cars as they reminisce about their past relationship. The opening lyric "Saw you go high above Autumn Clouds" highlights the metaphor of the relationship ending and becoming distant like a cloud in the sky. The singer has been blinded by the lies of their partner and is now left alone and scared. The line "If nothing is beautiful then you can't make me stay" suggests that the singer has come to terms with the fact that the relationship is over and is moving on.
The chorus is repeating the line "I'm driving one of your cars" which may symbolize the fact that the singer is still tied to their previous relationship through material items such as the car. The repeated "ooh ooh ooh" in the chorus could indicate the pain and emotion felt by the singer. The song's lyrics are open to interpretation yet the overall message is one of moving on from past relationships.

Saw you go high above Autumn Clouds
I saw you go away, to a distant and unreachable place, where everything seems peaceful and calm, like the clouds during autumn.
Blinding my eyes when the sparks grew bigger than your lies
You dazzled me, but then the sparks of truth exposed your lies and made me realize what you truly are.
You're concealed but still so wonderful so magical
You hide your true self, but you still have some qualities that are charming and enchanting.
Lining my forehead say can I see if it's me
I'm trying to figure out if I'm the one responsible for this situation, if I'm the one who needs to change.
So Cold So Cold / You leave me there Alone and scared / Cause I'm driving one of your cars
You left me isolated, vulnerable, and scared, because I'm now in a situation that you controlled, but you're no longer there to help or guide me.
If nothing is beautiful then you can't make me stay / I've made up my mind now there's nothing you can say (nothing you can say)
If there's nothing good or attractive about this situation, then you can't convince me to keep going. I've already decided to move on, and there's nothing you can say to change my mind.
But it's never been your style to waste your time now you're on your own / Can anyone hear what I'm saying or am I alone?
You never wasted time on things that weren't worth it, but now you find yourself alone, without anyone to listen or support you.
