The Sound
Sound & Vision Lyrics

Vision
The singer's vision or perception

My girl seeks thrills
The singer's partner is adventurous and seeks excitement

Eyes set on northern California
The singer's partner has a desire to go to northern California

She'll pack her life away
She is willing to leave everything behind

And live out her Corolla
She is willing to live a simple life in her Toyota Corolla

She wants to run away
She desires to escape from her current life

Run away with me
The singer wants her to run away with him

And if you don't have no plan in mind, baby
If she doesn't have a specific plan, it doesn't matter to the artist

Well that sounds good to me
The artist agrees and is open to going along with her spontaneous decision

She makes me forget the things
Being with her helps the artist forget his troubles

They say I'm not supposed to
People advise against being with her

I have regret from days
The artist feels remorseful for the time before he knew her

The days I didn't know ya
Referring to the period of time before the singer met her

I just wanna make memories
The singer desires to create special moments

Memories with you
He wants to make memories specifically with her

So if we hit the road right now
If they leave and start a journey immediately

That's cool with me
The artist is fine with that plan

If that sounds good to you
Asking if she agrees with the plan

I'm all set on other girls
The singer is not interested in other girls

Conversations all the same
The artist finds that conversations with other girls are monotonous

I've met umbrella girls
The artist has encountered girls who are superficial or shallow

But she dance in the rain
However, his partner embraces life and enjoys the little things

I thought I never would
The singer didn't expect to feel this way

Never would, never would, never would baby
Emphasizing that he never thought this would happen

But ever since I met you that day
Since the day he met her, his perspective changed

You've been fucking up my brain
Her presence has been overwhelming or intoxicating his thoughts

Got me head over heels
The singer is deeply in love

And backbends aren't my thing
The artist is not naturally flexible or willing to change his ways

Got me in my electric feels
Her presence arouses strong emotions in the artist

This charge so hard to tame
The intense emotions are difficult to control

It's something that I can't explain
The singer cannot find words to describe his feelings accurately

I can't explain, I can't explain, oh man
Emphasizing the difficulty of articulating his emotions

But all I know is when I see your face
The artist feels a sense of relief and happiness when seeing her

It alleviates my pain
Being with her brings the artist comfort and relieves his emotional distress

My spirit needed more
The singer's inner self or emotional state required something additional

So glad it's you I found
Expressing happiness that the artist found her

And what you're leading towards
Acknowledging her goals and aspirations

I just wanna be around
The singer desires to spend time with her

You remind me of better days
She brings back memories of happier times

Better days in a better place, so babe
Elaborating on the nostalgia and positive feelings she evokes

Just say the words get away
If she suggests leaving and escaping their current situation

And I'm so fucking down
The singer is eager and willing to go along with her plan
