Kalan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm crossing you in style someday
You dream maker, you heartbreaker
Wherever you're going I'm going your way
There's such a lot of world to see
We're after the same rainbows end
Waiting round the band
My huckleberry friend, moon river
And me
The lyrics to Kalan's "Moon River" paint a picture of a journey being taken by two dreamers who are in search of new adventures and the elusive "rainbow's end". The river is wider than a mile, meaning that the journey ahead is long and perhaps treacherous, but the singers are crossing it in style, with a sense of confidence and determination. The person they are addressing is called a "dream maker" and a "heartbreaker", suggesting that they are leading the way on this journey but also perhaps causing some heartache or difficulty along the way. The singers, however, are steadfast in their commitment to following this person wherever they go, suggesting a strong bond between them.
The two drifters in the song are on a quest to see the world, to experience all that life has to offer. They are aware that there is "such a lot of world to see" and seem determined to explore as much of it as possible. They are united in their pursuit of the "same rainbow's end", which suggests that they share a vision for what they hope to achieve on this journey. As they wait around the bend, they are joined by their "huckleberry friend", the singer's companion on this adventure. Together, they are on a journey of self-discovery and exploration, seeing the world and all its wonders through the lens of friendship and companionship.
