This is not your typical motorik beat kraut album; rather it sounds more like a breezy take on Love or Beau Brummels. The way that songs like “Willoweed” and “Paisley” flow seamlessly into one another, it is easy to see how listeners will become entranced by this new, dream-like world that The Holydrug Couple have created. These two stand-out tracks, as well as “Follow Your Way” really exemplify the growth of this band and signify the new direction they’re headed in.
Baby I’m Going Away
The Holydrug Couple Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′ll never forget your face
With your eyes closed
Dreaming about me
Baby I'm going away
Well I hope to forget all that we made
Look at the moon that you own
You know it hides everytime leaving our home
Baby I′m going away
What the blue ocean felt five years away
What the blue ocean felt five years away
Uuh babe aaahhh
"Baby I'm going away"
Forever will take your hand
Across the ocean
Blooming like trees in the sand
Maybe I know what you'll say
Down it′s the new up
And all the clouds here are grey
Try to fill something with your words
They′ll drip like everything that you know
Baby I'm going away
Well I hope to meet you again
Well I hope to meet you again
Uuh babe aaahhh
I′m going away
The lyrics of The Holydrug Couple's song "Baby I'm Going Away" convey a sense of longing, departure, and the bittersweet emotions associated with leaving someone behind. The opening lines, "I'll never forget your face, with your eyes closed, dreaming about me," suggest a deep connection between two individuals and the impact they have on each other's lives. The singer acknowledges the beauty and significance of this moment, instilled in their memory forever.
The repetition of the phrase "Baby I'm going away" emphasizes the imminent departure and the mixed feelings that accompany it. The hope of forgetting the past and moving on is expressed in the lines, "Well, I hope to forget all that we made" and "Well, I hope to meet you again." This hints at the need for a fresh start and the desire to leave behind any pain or memories that may linger.
The reference to the moon that the other person owns, hiding every time they leave home, adds a touch of melancholy. It symbolizes the elusive nature of their relationship and how their connection fades whenever they are physically apart. The mention of the "blue ocean felt five years away" implies a distance both in time and space, as if they have been separated for a long time.
The line, "Try to fill something with your words, they'll drip like everything that you know," suggests a sense of emptiness or longing that cannot be fulfilled with mere words. It implies that the singer desires more than just empty promises or words of consolation.
Overall, "Baby I'm Going Away" captures the complex emotions of departure, longing, and the hope for a new beginning. It paints a picture of a relationship marked by distance, uncertainty, and the need to find oneself before potentially reuniting with the other person.
