A Place
Ocie Elliott Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where the air is quiet and the dandelions glow
And the summer there is warm and known
And the cricket chorus fills the forest
I see the moon's big, beautiful shine
Right down the middle of the country road line
And some friends of mine are waiting at home
My head humming like a car at night
While the bird′s sleep and all the moth's are in flight
Looking up to see the satellite
And I get a chance to think, about how you were right
The lyrics of Ocie Elliott's song "A Place" describe a peaceful and serene location where the singer finds solace. The place is characterized by quietness, warm summer weather, and the soft glow of dandelions. The sound of crickets fills the air, and the singer describes how the moon shines brightly down the middle of the country road line. The singer also anticipates the warmth of home, where friends are already gathered around a fire.
The second verse depicts the singer's thoughts and emotions as they observe their surroundings. The humming in their head is compared to the sound of a car driving at night, and they watch as birds rest while moths take flight. Looking up, the singer sees a satellite passing overhead and "gets a chance to think" about how someone, likely a past love or friend, was right about something.
Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a peaceful and contemplative moment in the singer's life. The use of vivid imagery and sensory details creates a captivating atmosphere that invites listeners to imagine themselves in this idyllic location. The song encourages listeners to reflect on their own moments of peace and to appreciate the beauty around them.

There's a place that I like to go
There is a certain spot I enjoy spending time at
Where the air is quiet and the dandelions glow
The atmosphere is tranquil, and the dandelions look radiant
And the summer there is warm and known
It's a familiar location, and the summer season feels cozy
And the cricket chorus fills the forest
The chirping of crickets creates a symphony throughout the woods
I see the moon's big, beautiful shine
I observe the large, picturesque light of the moon
Right down the middle of the country road line
The moonlight shines in the middle of a rural road
And some friends of mine are waiting at home
At my destination, some of my acquaintances are anticipating my arrival
And they have a fire there, already going
A bonfire has already been built, and they have started it
My head humming like a car at night
In the peaceful setting, I hear the sound of my thoughts buzzing like a car engine
While the bird's sleep and all the moth's are in flight
As birds slumber, the moths continue to flutter around
Looking up to see the satellite
I gaze upward and spot a satellite in the sky
And I get a chance to think, about how you were right
This is an opportunity for me to ponder how accurate you were

Sometimes I really love the YouTube Algorithm.
Just found this beauty! And it was released just 3 days ago? Crazy.
You, my man, have such a beautifully voice! And the harmony with the Sierra? Magnificent.
That should be the soundtrack of my life one day.
When I move from Germany to Canada and live in a selfbuild cottage in the woods.
Please stay healthy, create more beautiful music like this one and be safe.
Wish you all all the best!

His voice has got to be one of the best male vocals of all time
@seamushughes6045
I could say the exact same for her, both are so unique.
@jameshusentoff2953
Josh Garrels voice is better in my opinion
@achrafagermoune2417
The thing about them is the feelings are too strong in their voices. It's not only about how beautiful the voice is.

Love your picking, Ocie. Along with the old organ sound and harmonica, it’s SOOOO peaceful. Not to mention, her voice is so beautiful, it matches her sweetness. Add that to the song, and this music touches me in the deepest reaches of my soul…….brings me back to a little innocent 12 year old boy that had no worries, only the love of his mother……Thank you. Thank you so much.

So right! So smooth, peaceful and mellow. It’s like drinking in a memory that makes you close your eyes and smile. I can’t think of any other music that has that particular effect.

I'm listening this with closed eyes and imagening NYC by night. Every light is a different person with different story 💕

Essa música é como um abraço de criança, como o sol saindo atrás das nuvens em um dia nublado, como um café quentinho pela manhã e um beijo apaixonado. Estou sentada no sofá, mas essa canção me levou a tantos lugares, me trouxe inúmeras lembranças..que linda!
