Around The World
My M.O. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey Yeah Hmmmm
Well it's been four lonely days and three lonely nights
Looking for my baby but she's nowhere in sight
See I've traveled far and wide
Seen the finest places
What does it all amount to, when there's no familiar faces

See I've been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I don't know where she can be
Been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
And I can't even find myself

Hey Yeah
Oh oh

Well I don't know where I am
And I don't know who I'm with
All I'm hanging on to is that loving that you give
You see I've lost my sense of time
And I got no direction
Sending out a signal
Been trying to get your attention

See I've been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I don't know where she can be
Been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I can't even find myself

Hey you know what I'm talking about
I ain't the only one who's feeling down and out

No, there's no spaces they clutter up my mind
Those wonderful traces
Suddenly there's no place I can find
My lover my lover
My lover my lover

Yeah yeah ohh
See I've been around the world and I
I can't find my - my lover my lover
Been around
I can't even find myself

See I've been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I don't know where she can be
Been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I don't know where she can be

See I've been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I don't know where she can be
Been around the world and I
I can't find my lover
Been around the world and I
I can't even find myself





Well it's been four lonely days and three lonely nights
Looking for my baby but she's nowhere in sight

Overall Meaning

The song "Around the World" by My M.O. tells the story of a person who is searching for their lover, but they cannot find them anywhere. The lyrics describe the singer as having travelled far and wide, seen many new and exciting places, but they cannot find what they are really looking for. The song expresses what it means to be lost and disoriented in life, trying to navigate through the world without the person whom they love.


Throughout the song, there is a sense of desperation and uncertainty. The lines "Well, I don't know where I am / And I don't know who I'm with / All I'm hanging on to is that loving that you give" show that the singer is lost and wandering aimlessly, clinging to the memories of their lover. The repetition of the line "Been around the world and I" emphasizes the sense of aimlessness and wandering. The chorus "I can't find my lover / I don't know where she can be / I can't find my lover / And I can't even find myself" shows the frustration and despair of not finding what one is looking for and losing the sense of self in the process.


The song overall is a powerful expression of what it means to feel lost and disconnected in the world, searching for someone or something that seems always just out of reach. The repetition of the chorus conveys a sense of hopelessness, and the unresolved ending of the song leaves the listener with a sense of uncertainty and sadness.

Around The World
水叮噹
I've been around the World - hey hey
I've been around the World - hey hey
In the kitchen where I'm cooking what is good for me
Spices from the Globe
Little by little is the finest meal
It's half the type for hope
Come and see
You mix it all together in your dreams
Ingredients from the Seven Seas, and I
I'm realizing things ain't what they seem
That's the riddle of it
That's the spirit of it
That's the power of life
I've been around the World - round the world
And I've seen it all - seen it all
I've been around the World - round the world
'Cause the wind will always rise or fall
I've been around the World - round the world
And I wanted to see - see it all
I've been the only girl - round the world
All surrounded by mystery
In the living room I'm cleaning up from top to floor
Place I love the most
Wall is covered up with all my souvenirs
I got from coast to coast
Come and see
You mix it all together in Your dreams
Ingredients from the Seven Seas, and I
I'm realizing things ain't what they seem
That's the riddle of it
That's the spirit of it
That's the power of life
I've been around the World - round the world
And I've seen it all - seen it all
I've been around the World - round the world
'Cause the wind will always rise or fall
I've been around the World - round the world
And I wanted to see - see it all
I've been the only girl - round the world
All surrounded by mystery
I'm still coming around
I keep chasing dreams
Girl I keep coming around
Hey hey
I keep coming around
And I can never stop
Girl I keep coming around
'Cause if I do a lot
Around around
And around the World
I've been around the World - round the world
Hey hey - seen it all
I've been around the World - round the world
All surrounded by mystery
I've been around the World - round the world
And I've seen it all - seen it all
I've been around the World - round the world
Sun will always rise and fall - round the world

2023 and Aqua is still one of my all time favourite bands, being born in 1992 i grew up listening to Aqua. 😊 Will never get fed up listening to their music, it gets me in a good mood. 😊

@user-rd5zo4hf5s

Cùng tuổi với bạn và mình cũng rất thích .. 1992

@cristiancapapas6113

Same birth year as well, it reminds me of my childhood memories.

@Illyrian5

Just came back from an Aqua concert. Never in my life thought that I'd be able to see them live! It was such a fantastic show.
