Anywhere
Rita Ora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time flies by when the night is young
Daylight shines on an undisclosed location, location
Bloodshot eyes lookin' for the sun
Paradise delivered and we called it a vacation, vacation

You're painting me a dream that I
Wanna belong in, wanna belong in
Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Someplace where no one knows our name
We'll find the start to something new
Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Just take me anywhere (anywhere), take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you

Fun, little less fun
Little less, over, over, over, over, me
Oh, fun, little less fun
Little less, over, over, over, over, me

Truth comes out when we're blacking out
Looking for connection in a crowd of empty faces, empty faces
Your secrets are the only thing I'm craving now
The good and the bad, let me in
'Cause I can take it, I can take it

You're painting me a dream that I
Wanna belong in (wanna belong in), wanna belong in

Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
I know we've got to get away
Someplace where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
Just take me anywhere (anywhere), take me anywhere
Anywhere away with you

Fun, little less fun
Little less, over, over, over, over, me
Oh, fun, little less fun
Little less, over, over, over, over, me

Take me anywhere
Oh, anywhere
Anywhere away with you
Take me anywhere

Over the hills and far away
A million miles from L.A.
Just anywhere away with you
(Oh, anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, love)
I know we've got to get away
Someplace where no one knows our name
We'll find the start of something new
(Oh, we'll find the start of something new)
Just take me anywhere (anywhere), take me anywhere (anywhere)
Anywhere away with you (anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, oh)
Just take me anywhere (anywhere), take me anywhere (oh, take me anywhere, love)
Anywhere away with you (anywhere, anywhere, anywhere)

Fun, little less fun
Little less, over, over, over, over, me




Anywhere away with you
Oh

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Rita Ora's song "Anywhere" describe a desire to escape from reality and the mundane routines of everyday life. The first verse talks about the passing of time and how quickly it goes by, especially when one is having fun. It then describes a desire to be in a different location, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, with someone special. The chorus emphasizes this desire for escape, specifically to "anywhere away with you." The second verse discusses the truth that is uncovered after a night of partying and looking for a connection among people. The lyrics reveal that secret-sharing becomes more appealing after being with such a crowd as it brings people closer. The chorus repeats the theme of wanting to get away with someone special and start something new.


The song's lyrics, therefore, hint at a desire to escape from reality towards a new setting, location, or dream. The lyrics imply that this escape would lead to new experiences and opportunities, which might not have been possible before. It's a song about taking a risk and starting over in a new setting.


Line by Line Meaning

Time flies by when the night is young
The pace of the night seems to move quickly as it goes by, especially when we're having a good time.


Daylight shines on an undisclosed location, location
The sun shines on a place that is currently unknown or hidden. It's like the location of a secret paradise.


Bloodshot eyes lookin' for the sun
Eyes that are red and tired are searching for the warmth and comfort of the sun.


Paradise delivered and we call it a vacation, vacation
We consider a perfect, relaxing place to be our paradise, and for us, it's like a break or a vacation from the reality of life.


You're painting me a dream that I Wanna belong in, wanna belong in
You're creating a picture of a dream world that I want to be a part of and experience for myself.


Over the hills and far away A million miles from L.A
We desire to go beyond the distance or the limit, to be far away from Los Angeles, and to explore a new place.


Just anywhere away with you I know we've got to get away Someplace where no one knows our name We'll find the start to something new Just take me anywhere, take me anywhere Anywhere away with you
We're longing for an escape from our routine and to get lost in a new world, away from people who know us. Let's go anywhere, as long as we're together, and start a new journey.


Fun, little less fun Little less, over, over, over, over, me
We're having a good time, but it's becoming less exciting or enjoyable, and we're feeling overwhelmed or burdened.


Truth comes out when we're blacking out Looking for connection in a crowd of empty faces, empty faces Your secrets are the only thing I'm craving now The good, and the bad, and the end 'Cause I can take it, I can take it
When we're drunk or under the influence, we tend to be more honest and open. We're trying to find someone who's genuine in a sea of fake people. I'm curious about your secrets, no matter if they're good, bad, or the end. I'm strong enough to handle it.


Take me anywhere Oh, anywhere Anywhere away with you
I want to be anywhere with you, wherever that may be. Just take me away from here.


Anywhere away with you Oh
Being with you is enough to make me happy, no matter where we are.
