Spring
Mark and the Argonauts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drifting through the rain
I wanna drive the summer away
Soaring by in mile jets
Cracking wind with grace
I wanna fly the summer away
Flowers bloom and flowers wilt
But always leave a trace
Needless of a perfect Earth
We'll always find a way
We're gonna drive the summer away
When motions vile
And I can't stand another mile
I'll drive home
Yeah
Sister finally calls my phone
But nobodies at home
Luxury at night's where I belong
Flying driving rolling tumbling
I don't care the way
I'm gonna get to heaven with grace
When motions vile
And I can't stand another mile
I'll drive home
No matter the way
I don't care what they say
I'll drive home
Yeah
Looking back at everything
Things have been okay
Though some parts of life will never change
Find yourself or find the world
Get the better place
We're gonna fly across the world today
It's been a while
Since we all shared a smile
Let's drive home
Let's get away
To a new and brighter day
Let's drive home
Yeah
Riding in the summer sun
Drifting through the rain
I wanna drive the summer away
Soaring by in mile jets
Cracking wind with grace
I wanna fly the summer away
Flowers bloom and flowers whilt
But always leave a trace
Soaring into heaven for faith
Needless of a perfect Earth
We'll always find a way
We're gonna drive the summer away
Yeah
The song "Spring" by Mark and the Argonauts is a reflective and contemplative anthem about finding one's place in the world, and the simple joys of getting lost in music and going on road trips. The opening stanza features a powerful metaphor of the summer season as a force that one wants to escape from or drive away from, perhaps indicative of a yearning to break free from monotony and embrace something new. The driving rhythm and soaring vocals of the chorus paint a vivid picture of the wind against one's face, and the sheer joy of being alive.
The second verse is more introspective, with the singer contemplating the need for connection and belonging. The line "When motions vile and I can't stand another mile, I'll drive home" hints at a deeper meaning, perhaps indicating that sometimes the journey we take may not lead us down the right path, but we must find the courage to stay true to ourselves and head back to where we belong. The song ends with a sense of resolution and optimism, urging the listener to embrace the beauty of the world and find their own place in it.
