Two Fugitives
Malia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Here I find myself again in a bar
Drowning my sorrow and falling in love with a stranger
And as I down another martini I realise
I'm singing the same old swing stop me anytime
I flirt with the bartender and ask him for
Two more martinis'please, he knows me so well
To the man facing me at the bar he's heard it all before
Strangers for the night in love what can we lose
Stangers in the night in love we've nothing to lose
We're like two fugitives in the night
We're like two fugitives in the night
Here I find myself again in my bag
Reaching for gum to freshen my breath to kiss this stranger
And as I plan a hot passionate kiss I realize
I'm singing the same old song
But don't stop me this time
I flirt with the handsome stranger and ask him
Could you give me a ride home please,
It goes down so well
And he smiles, then he delivers me
Into his little ford ka
And we drive away from the bar we've both been here before
Stangers for the night in love, what can we lose ?
Strangers in the night in love,
We’ve nothing to lose
Strangers in the night in love, what can we lose ?
Were like two fugitives in the night
The lyrics of Malia's song "Two Fugitives" describe a night spent at a bar, where the singer finds herself drowning her sorrows and flirting with a stranger. The song paints a vivid picture of a commonplace scenario, as the singer orders two martinis and makes small talk with the bartender. The refrain "we're like two fugitives in the night" alludes to the fleeting nature of the connection between the two strangers who share a moment of intimacy, but ultimately will likely never see each other again.
The lyrics also suggest the cyclical nature of the singer's behavior, as she acknowledges singing the "same old song" but refuses to let anyone stop her this time. The sense of repetition is further emphasized by the fact that both the singer and the stranger have been in the bar before, suggesting that they are both familiar with the feeling of loneliness and the need for momentary connection.
Overall, "Two Fugitives" is a poignant exploration of the human desire for connection, even in the most fleeting and impermanent of circumstances. The song is a testament to the power of music to convey complex emotional experiences through simple yet resonant lyrics.
