Indefinitely
Travis and Casey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everything that everyone says turns me on/off
Shine a light on me
So that everyone can see
That I want to stay here indefinitely
Time exists but just on your wrist so don't panic
So wind your watches down please
'cos there is no time to lose
And I'm gonna stay here indefinitely
And I want to stay here so just let me be
Now I can see the light circling round your reflection
And I'm gonna stay here indefinitely
And I'm gonna stay here so just let me be
Indefinitely, indefinitely, indefinitely
Indefinitely, indefinitely, indefinitely.
The lyrics of Travis and Casey's song "Indefinitely" convey the emotions of falling deeply in love with someone and wanting to stay with them forever. The opening line "Everyday in every way I'm falling" expresses the depth of the singer's emotions for their love interest. The next line "Everything that everyone says turns me on/off" conveys the idea that the person's opinion of others does not matter to the singer as long as they have the love of their life with them.
The chorus "Shine a light on me, so that everyone can see that I want to stay here indefinitely" expresses the singer's desire for their love to be acknowledged and recognized by the world. However, the following line "Time exists but just on your wrist so don't panic" indicates that time is relative and subjective, and the singer wants to cherish every moment they have with their love interest.
The bridge "Moments last and lifetimes are lost in a day, so wind your watches down please 'cos there is no time to lose" conveys an urgency in the relationship, urging the need to cherish and make the most of every moment spent together. The final lines "And I'm gonna stay here indefinitely, and I want to stay here so just let me be" emphasize the singer's desire to stay with their love interest forever.
