Brand New Day
Kodaline/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well it's your hometown
I think I've outgrown
I wanna travel the world but I, I just can't do it alone
So I'm just waiting on fate to come.
Wrap around me
Think about all the foreign places we could be

I'll be flicking stones at your window
I'll be waiting outside 'til you're ready to go
Won't you come down? Come away with me
Just think of all the places we could be
I'll be waiting, waiting on a brand new day

Riding on waves, walking on sand
Digging in caves to find the treasures of the land
And if we find gold
Well, we'll just throw it away
We can write stories bout the journeys that we made
(We could be big in Japan)

I'll be flicking stones at your window
I'll be waiting outside 'til you're ready to go
Won't you come down? Come away with me
Just think of all the places we could be
I'll be waiting, waiting on a brand new day
Waiting on a brand new day

They said they'll keep me here
But I couldn't do another year
I said I'll see you soon
Because I whistle to a different tune

Think of all the places we could be
Think of all the people we could meet

I'll be flicking stones at your window
I'll be waiting outside 'til you're ready to go
Won't you come down? Come away with me




Think of all the places we could be
I'll be waiting, waiting on a brand new day

There is a sense of urgency in the lyrics, with the singer flicking stones at their potential companion's window and waiting outside until they are ready to venture out. The song speaks to the idea of leaving behind the familiarity of home and exploring the unknown, with the possibility of great adventures and new connections.


Overall, "Brand New Day" is a song about stepping out of one's comfort zone, taking risks, and embracing the uncertainty of life. It encourages listeners to dream big and pursue their passions, even if it means leaving behind the safety net of what they know.


Line by Line Meaning

Well it's your hometown
You were born and raised here


I think I've outgrown
I've grown beyond what this place has to offer


I wanna travel the world but I, I just can't do it alone
I desire to explore foreign countries, but I require a companion to join me on this adventure


So I'm just waiting on fate to come.
At this moment, I am not sure what my future holds.


Wrap around me
Envelop me in your embrace


Think about all the foreign places we could be
Reflect on all of the exciting new places we could visit


I'll be flicking stones at your window
I'll call for you by tossing rocks at your window


I'll be waiting outside 'til you're ready to go
I'll remain outside until you're ready to set off on our journey together


Won't you come down? Come away with me
Join me on this journey, won't you?


Just think of all the places we could be
Imagine all the locations we could travel to and explore together


I'll be waiting, waiting on a brand new day
I'll remain patient for a fresh start, full of new possibilities


Riding on waves, walking on sand
We'll explore the ocean by surfing, and we'll walk on sandy beaches


Digging in caves to find the treasures of the land
We'll search for valuable gems or metals in caves


And if we find gold
If we come across a wealth of riches


Well, we'll just throw it away
We'll throw away the gold, as it doesn't matter to us


We can write stories bout the journeys that we made
We can chronicle our travels in written form, to share with others or for our own enjoyment


(We could be big in Japan)
This statement could either mean 'We could become famous in Japan' or be an ironic reference to an old '80s song by Alphaville.


They said they'll keep me here
Those in authority have promised to keep me here


But I couldn't do another year
I can't bear to spend another year in this place


I said I'll see you soon
I promised to return again in the future


Because I whistle to a different tune
Because I have a unique perspective and a different way of doing things


Think of all the places we could be
Imagine all the intriguing locations we could travel to and explore together


Think of all the people we could meet
Consider all the fascinating individuals we could encounter during our travels


I'll be waiting, waiting on a brand new day
I will be patient until a new opportunity presents itself

LYRICS

I remember you and me
Back when we were 17
Drinking, kissing in the street
We couldn't get enough
I see you layin' there with me
Like my missing puzzle piece
Dreaming of what we could be
We couldn't make you up

We had the songs that we sang along to
You had the moves to make me dance with you
I always saw you reaching and catching stars
We had the thing that everyone wanted
Hung on your sleeve, you wore your heart on it
Did you get out I'm wondering where you are?
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)

We had the songs that we sang along to
You had the moves to make me dance with you
I always saw you reaching and catching stars
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
We had the thing that everyone wanted
Hung on your sleeve, you wore your heart on it
Did you get out I'm wondering where you are?
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Did you follow your fire?

The time we stole your daddy's car
And drove around till' it got dark
We slept outside in Phoenix Park
We couldn't get enough
We promised that we'd never part
On a tree, under the stars
We carved our names into the bark
To be there when we're not

We had the songs that we sang along to
You had the moves to make me dance with you
I always saw you reaching and catching stars
We had the thing that everyone wanted
Hung on your sleeve, you wore your heart on it
Did you get out I'm wondering where you are?
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)

We had the songs that we sang along to
You had the moves to make me dance with you
I always saw you reaching and catching stars
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
We had the thing that everyone wanted
Hung on your sleeve, you wore your heart on it
Did you get out I'm wondering where you are?
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh

I remember you and me
Back when we were 17
Drinking, kissing in the street
We couldn't get enough

We had the songs that we sang along to
You had the moves to make me dance with you
I always saw you reaching and catching stars
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
We had the thing that everyone wanted
Hung on your sleeve, you wore your heart on it
Did you get out I'm wondering where you are?
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh
(Did you follow your, follow your fire?)
Oh, oh, oh

Did you follow your, follow your fire?
