Lone Justice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can surly keep you out of sight Forget about the way you look,your smile,the way you speak But I've heard in the dead of night Outside my window silence breaking with the sollid
destination of your lonesome speed
Chours
I know the sound of your wheels
yeah,yeah,yeah
yeah,yeah,yeah
I know the sound of your wheels
I had a handle on my sorrow
My composure was in order if not sufficiently intact But every reminiscent echo
Brings a blow to chill my sesses and my heart quakes and tenses 'till those moments pass
Chours
Every trace, every vision
Brings my emotions to collision
Past love's lost tokens
Every cherished thought once spoken
False hope of reconciliation
Chours
The song Wheels by Lone Justice is a poignant and emotional depiction of a breakup and the pain associated with it. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and regret as the singer reflects on their past relationship and the love that has been lost. The opening lines express a wish that the love had never existed in the first place, as it makes it incredibly hard for the singer to move on without it. However, despite their attempts to forget and move on, the singer admits to still thinking of their former lover often and feeling their presence close by.
The chorus of the song is the most powerful and memorable part, as the singer repeatedly declares their familiarity with the sound of their ex's wheels. This adds a sense of desperation to the song - the singer is so consumed by their longing for the past that even the sound of their former lover's vehicle passing by is enough to send them into a tailspin. The latter half of the song delves deeper into the singer's emotional turmoil, as they struggle to come to terms with their feelings and the memories of their relationship. The lyrics are filled with vivid imagery that beautifully captures the pain and complexity of heartbreak, such as "every reminiscent echo brings a blow to chill my senses and my heart quakes and tenses till those moments pass."
Overall, Wheels is a timeless classic that showcases the power of music to convey raw and human emotions.

I wish you never even loved me
It makes it so hard to live without love now
Now I know, you're often thinking of me
Sometimes I feel you so close by that
It takes all my might to keep from
Trying to track you down
I can surly keep you out of sight
Forget about the way you look
Your smile, the way you speak
But I've heard in the dead of night
Outside my window silence breaking
With the solid destination of your lonesome speed
I know the sound of your wheels
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

To chill my senses and my heart quakes
And tenses till those moments pass

Yeah, yeah, yeah

It’s 2023 and I’m still blown away when I listen to this song, the voice and intensity will always blow me away, turning 75 in March too 😊
@kittmurphy4222
This girl has been sending shivers down my spine since 1986!
@davidmclintock7581
I think 1983 for me, walked 12 miles in total to get that LP in Maldon, Essex.
And nobody else has ever heard of her. I live in a world of idiots.
But I have no regrets, what a great walk to a record shop.
@Check-it-out
I have never listened to this song without shedding a tear. Thinking of those times when i was suffering from a shattered heart. Shivers down my spine. Music is the most heartfelt and precious way to communicate. In this case... To communicate with my deepest feelings. Thank you Maria, where ever you are ;-)

I almost choked. This is so emotional, so profound, so moving ... this is what music can do to you when it's done the way it should.
