Where Do We Go From Here
Meer Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The lights go out, the music is fading
I haven't danced at all tonight
Holding up the wall
I've never tried
But if you ask me to I might

Too many roads leading out of here
Too many reasons we're way overdue
Show me a road leading nowhere
And I will walk it with you

Without a word you caught up with me
Where do we go from here tonight

I can't recall the last time I cried
But if you touch me now I might

Too many roads leading out of here
Too many reasons we're way overdue
Show me a road leading nowhere
And I will walk it with you

The stars go out




The night fading
Where do we go from here

Overall Meaning

Meer's song "Where Do We Go From Here" is a poignant exploration of vulnerability and uncertainty in relationships. The lyrics convey a sense of disconnection and loneliness in the midst of a social setting - the lights are fading and the music has lost its appeal. The singer is feeling self-conscious and awkward, admitting that they've been "holding up the wall" all night. However, when a potential partner approaches them and suggests they dance, they are willing to take a chance and step outside their comfort zone.


The chorus of the song expresses a sense of overwhelm and confusion. There seem to be too many options, too many paths to take, and too many reasons not to pursue them. The singer asks for guidance - for someone to show them a road that leads nowhere, so that they can walk it with them. In this moment, they are willing to trust someone else and take a leap of faith, even if it means walking down an unknown path.


The final verse of the song brings a sense of closure and resolution. The stars go out and the night fades, symbolizing the end of an era or a sense of finality. The singer is left wondering what comes next - where do they go from here? The song leaves the ending open to interpretation, but there is a sense of hope and possibility in the final line.


Overall, "Where Do We Go From Here" is a beautiful and introspective song that speaks to the human experience of love, loss, and uncertainty. The vulnerability and raw emotion in the lyrics make it a powerful piece of music that resonates with listeners on a deep level.
