Something to See
Max Stalling Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've run wild and free
I've been burning down the road
It's been something to see
But this season the winds have changed
Something new on the breeze
I turned to look and there you were
So slip your hand inside mine girl
Let a lock find it's key
Swing the gates to my world wide
It'll be something to see
It'll be something to see
Sometimes things just don't add up
One and one's not three
But when I'm standing next to you
That's how it seems
CHORUS
I don't know how this all will turn out
Confusing as can be
But when it does I'm confident
It'll be something to see
CHORUS
It'll be something
Really something
It'll be something to see
It'll be something
I'm talking something
It'll be something to see

All these years have been sublime
The past has been delightful and wonderful
I've run wild and free
I have lived my life without restrictions
I've been burning down the road
I have been traveling rapidly along the journey of life
It's been something to see
My life has been a spectacle to observe
But this season the winds have changed
Things have taken a turn for the different this year
Something new on the breeze
There is a fresh new change in the air
I turned to look and there you were
I stumbled upon you unexpectedly
And it was something to see
Seeing you was a remarkable sight
So slip your hand inside mine girl
Place your hand in mine, my dear
Let a lock find it's key
Let the perfect fit be discovered
Swing the gates to my world wide
Open the doors to my entire life
It'll be something to see
You will witness an amazing sight

Occasionally things cannot be figured out logically

Two things combined does not always make another thing
But when I'm standing next to you
When I am by your side
That's how it seems
Everything makes sense then
I don't know how this all will turn out
I am unsure of how this situation will conclude
Confusing as can be
It is extremely perplexing
But when it does I'm confident
Despite the confusion, I am certain
It'll be something to see
It will be spectacular to observe
It'll be something
It will be remarkable
Really something
Truly amazing
I'm talking something
It is truly and utterly something remarkable
It'll be something to see
It will be fantastic to behold
