Marion Raven Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Our song is blasting from the radio
Oh...
Pick me up at midnight. By the light
Oh...
I want you to take me, take me with you
Driving, driving fast with you
Driving, driving fast with you
Turn on the stereo
And paint me a picture
How the world should be
Because the girl on the radio,
On the radio is me
If we spend all our money we can tank her up
We can go until the morning we don't need to stop
I′m loving it when we go with no direction
Looking at you your smile is so infectious
Don′t go easy
Don't go easy
The song "Driving" by Marion Raven is a joyful, upbeat tune with elements that describe the thrilling feeling of being in love and driving aimlessly with a significant other. The song begins as if the artist is talking to her lover, asking if he is prepared for what is to come. She feels courageous and ready to set out on a journey with him. Her song is playing on the radio as they set off, and she is overjoyed that they will be together. As they drive, nothing else appears to matter, especially when they are driving at tremendous speeds. She requests that he turn on the stereo to create a beautiful picture of how the world should seem as they drive. She is overjoyed that the lady singing on the radio is her, thus representing her voice.
The songwriters describe the exhilarating emotions of driving through vivid and descriptive imagery. The line "Pick me up at midnight. By the light" indicates that they will be driving late into the night, and the phrase "turn on the stereo and paint me a picture" showcases the power music has in transporting individuals and creating emotions. The line "Because the girl on the radio, on the radio is me" is significant because it represents the beginning of the singer's career and serves as a monumental moment in her life, showcasing her voice on the radio for the first time. The song's chorus, "Driving, driving fast with you, nothing really matters when we're driving," captures the essence of what it feels like to be in love and experiencing a thrilling adventure with someone.
