Hope
Misty Miller Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

As I sit in my seat
I look for many lovers to meet
The occasional one walks by
I kinda find it fun to try to catch his eye
Make my way off the train
Start walking through the pouring way
I find myself following the boy that's on the phone
See is she's waiting for him or he'll be alone

And I still don't
Know any guy
But I know
I'm on my way home

Make my way on the bus
Feels good to leave all the street fuss
Then I accidentally tripped Joan
The lady from taking her orange juice sip
Go from warmer to cold
Pass the houses inhabited by the old
Now Jack is freezing my extremities
Makes it ten times harder to find my keys

And I still don't
Know any guy
But I know
I'm on my way home





I'm on my way home

Overall Meaning

In Misty Miller's song "Hope," the singer portrays a sense of loneliness and uncertainty as she navigates through the busy streets of a city. The lyrics depict the singer's attempt to find a lover or a companion, but with no luck. She gets on the train and looks around for someone to connect with. Even when she finds someone she likes, she's not sure if they are waiting for someone else. The feeling of being alone is further emphasized when the singer mentions a lady named Joan, whom she accidentally tripped, and elderly people living alone in their houses.


However, amidst all the confusion and disappointment, the singer holds on to the glimmer of hope that she's on her way home. The idea of "home" here could be a metaphor for inner peace or a sense of belonging. Despite being physically alone and not having found a companion, she is still moving forward with the assurance that she will eventually reach her destination, which is "home."


The song is a compelling commentary on the loneliness that one can experience in a big city. It highlights the struggle to find meaningful connections and how difficult it can be to feel like you belong. The singer's ability to capture these emotions through her lyrics is commendable and adds an extra layer of depth to the song.

你哦你
你是我的一切
寶貝,我希望我對你意味著一切
而我們,哦,我們
我們在各方面都很可愛
我希望你知道我永遠都是真實的
我會鎖住你
就像樹上的生物curl縮
我希望你也能抓住我
是的,這很棒
我希望我們可以
它像常青的愛情一樣持久
貓王,他有我們的歌,他發自內心地唱歌
就像我對你唱歌的方式
你唱歌給我聽
而我們正處於與眾不同的階段
就像老電影一樣痛
當我看到你時,你親吻我的臉頰
我說這個很好
我希望我們可以
它像常青的愛情一樣持久
是的,這讓我微笑
我希望它能持續一段時間
永遠,就像常青的愛情
永遠,就像常青的愛情
