Loveless
Wild Ones Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Post-sting golden dream
The girl's on my team
Oh its a wonder how we fall asleep

Hell on a motorbike
My mother waiting
We meet together at the uptown scene
And on a friday night
I show my enemies
The kind of loveless girl that i can be

The kind of loveless girl that i can be

Then i see you
Oh no i cant think
I only know your face
That was burned into my eyes

I call you and you come to me

Lit by street light where we meet
Baby baby come on dance with me
Oh no i wont mind
If they see
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Oh

Pay the red and whites
To call themself clean
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Under street light where we meet
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Oh

Pay the red and whites
To call themself clean
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Oh baby baby come on dance with me

Light on back streets
Show me a valley view
We will never ever run with you
Oh its so blue but
Its in the way you move
Ooh i will never ever run with you

I want to make you what you're born to be
Oh we see it all
And now i call you and you come to me
Oh i see it all

Lit by street light where we meet
Baby baby come on dance with me
Oh no i wont mind
If they see
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Oh

Pay the red and whites
To call themself clean
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Under street light where we meet
Oh baby baby come on dance with me
Oh baby baby come on dance with me




Oh baby baby come...
Oh baby baby...

Overall Meaning

The song "Loveless" by Wild Ones is a poetic exploration of the complexities of modern love. The lyrics describe the singer's desire for connection, even as they acknowledge their own tendency towards emotional distance. The first verse juxtaposes a "post-sting golden dream" with the harsh reality of "hell on a motorbike," hinting at the tension between the capacity for romance and the dangers of the world. The chorus reinforces this idea, with the singer admitting that they are capable of being a "loveless girl," even as they long for connection.


The second verse introduces a new character, the "you" that the singer sees and longs for. The reference to the burn that the singer feels when they see this person suggests a deep emotional connection, but also a sense of pain and danger. The chorus repeats again, emphasizing the desire for dance and connection, even amidst the risk.


The final verse introduces a sense of hope, with the singer's desire to "make you what you're born to be" suggesting a newfound sense of purpose and agency. The repeated refrain of "we see it all" suggests a kind of shared understanding between the singer and their beloved, even as they remain somewhat elusive and enigmatic in the lyrics.


Overall, "Loveless" is a haunting and evocative song that captures the difficulties of love and connection in a complex and often frightening world.
