10. I'll Meet You There
Owl City Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If we could sit together a moment
And talk forever just to pass the time
I would smile as the shivers and chills
Run down my spine
And your eyes are locked on mine
Oh, we'll fill the metro skies with country air
And when you close your tired eyes
I'll meet you there

I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there

Deep inside of you
There's a ruby glow
And it gets brighter
Than you and I will ever know
There's a rushing sound
That surrounds us
When we walk alone
And it's everything we've never known

(Wonder down the street and I will be the pavement beneath your feet)

If we could just be immobile for some time
And finally figure out the way we feel
About the missing puzzle pieces and cloudy question marks
That still look a bit surreal
Oh, I tend to disappear
Here and there
So concentrate and you'll feel me
Everywhere
And we'll fill the metro skies with country air
If you're lost when you close your eyes
I'll meet you there

I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
You could be anywhere
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
You could be anywhere
I'll meet you there
I'll meet you there
Open your eyes and see
You could be anywhere
Everything you can be
I'll meet you there
Open your eyes and see
You could be anywhere




Everything you can be
I'll meet you there

Line by Line Meaning

If we could sit together a moment
If only we could have a few moments to share with each other


And talk forever just to pass the time
Chatting all day long to make time fly by


I would smile as the shivers and chills
I'll feel happy as I get goosebumps


Run down my spine
It will make me excited and thrilled


And your eyes are locked on mine
As I gaze into your eyes intently


Oh, we'll fill the metro skies with country air
We'll transform our surroundings and make it feel like we're in the countryside


And when you close your tired eyes
And as you drift off to sleep exhausted


I'll meet you there
I'll be waiting for you in your dreams


If we could just be immobile for some time
If only we could just slow down and take a break


And finally figure out the way we feel
And then try to understand our emotions


About the missing puzzle pieces and cloudy question marks
About the unclear situations and unknown answers


That still look a bit surreal
That still seem a little unrealistic


Oh, I tend to disappear
Sometimes I tend to go away or feel invisible


Here and there
Every now and then


So concentrate and you'll feel me
So focus and you'll sense that I'm with you


Everywhere
All around you


And we'll fill the metro skies with country air
We'll change the city atmosphere to feel more natural and scenic


If you're lost when you close your eyes
If you ever feel lost or uncertain in your thoughts


I'll meet you there
I'll always be there to guide you or accompany you


You could be anywhere
You could be in a different place or frame of mind


Open your eyes and see
Look around and recognize your surroundings


Everything you can be
Take advantage of all your possibilities and opportunities


I'll meet you there
I'll always be there to support you and join you in your journey
