Drive

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Drive)

You look like you should be downtown right now
Walkin' out the house dressed up hair down
Know we're supposed to meet up with our friends
If you want, you know we still can

Baby, what ya think about
Maybe staying out the crowd
Take it out where the tall pines sway?
Do it like we used to do
Light it up under the moon
Take a trip down memory lane
And just

Drive down a backwoods byway, every mile you slide closer my way
Way out where nobody knows where we are (where we are)
Slow kiss while we're waitin' on the night train
Lookin' at you lookin' at me tryin' to keep it in the right lane
You and me two high beams in the dark (in the dark)
Baby, let's drive
'Til we find a place to park
('Til we, 'til we find a place to park)

Kill the lights and let the stars get brighter
If you wanna smoke I gotta Swisher in the visor
Lean the seat back, middle of nowhere
I can already see us out there

Baby, what ya think about
Maybe staying out the crowd?
Take it out where the tall pines sway
Do it like we used to do
Light it up under the moon
Take a trip down memory lane
And just

Drive down a backwoods byway, every mile you slide closer my way
Way out where nobody knows where we are (where we are)
Slow kiss while we're waitin' on the night train
Lookin' at you lookin' at me tryin' to keep it in the right lane
You and me two high beams in the dark (in the dark)
Baby, let's drive
'Til we find a place to park

Baby, what ya think about
Maybe staying out the crowd?
Take out it where the tall pines sway (tall pines sway)
Do it like we used to do
Light it up under the moon
Take a trip down memory lane
And just

Drive down a backwoods byway, every mile you slide closer my way
Way out where nobody knows where we are
Where we at, yeah yeah yeah
Slow kiss while we're waitin' on the night train
Lookin' at you lookin' at me tryin' to keep it in the right lane
You and me two high beams in the dark (in the dark)
Baby, let's drive




Let's drive
'Til we find a place to park (drive)

Overall Meaning

In Morgan Wallen's song "Drive," the singer talks about taking a break from the crowds and noise of life to spend some time alone with his significant other. The lyrics suggest that the duo takes a trip down memory lane and reignites their passion for each other by driving down a backwoods byway, finding a remote location to park, and watching the stars together. The song's chorus highlights the beautiful imagery of the stars shining bright against the night sky while the two lovers hold onto each other.


Throughout the verses, Wallen incorporates a variety of sensory details that add depth and intensity to the scene. He describes the setting as being on a backwoods byway where there are no other people around, just two high beams shining in the dark. He also mentions the smell of a Swisher in the visor and the sound of crickets chirping in the background. These details help place the listener in the moment and allow them to experience the setting alongside the singer and his lover.


In essence, "Drive" is a song about slowing down, getting away from the hustle and bustle of life, and reconnecting with what really matters- love. It illustrates how sometimes taking a break from the chaos and taking some time to spend with the people we love in a peaceful setting can have a profound impact. The song provides a refreshing reminder that, despite everything going on around us, finding those small moments of happiness, love, and stillness can make all the difference.


Line by Line Meaning

You look like you should be downtown right now
You appear to be dressed up as if heading to a bustling city area


Walkin' out the house dressed up hair down
You're strolling out of the house, outfitted and with your hair let loose


Know we're supposed to meet up with our friends
I recall we have a scheduled appointment with some acquaintances


If you want, you know we still can
However, if you prefer, we have the option to cancel the meeting and do something else


Baby, what ya think about
My dear, what are your thoughts regarding


Maybe staying out the crowd
The possibility of avoiding the crowds


Take it out where the tall pines sway?
Depart to an area where the tall pine trees sway in the breeze


Do it like we used to do
Relive a past experience


Light it up under the moon
Illuminate the environment beneath the moon


Take a trip down memory lane
Go on a nostalgic journey


And just Drive down a backwoods byway, every mile you slide closer my way
Simply venture down a remote road, inching you closer to me with each passing mile


Way out where nobody knows where we are
To a place so far away, where nobody can locate us


Slow kiss while we're waitin' on the night train
A leisurely kiss while watching for the night train


Lookin' at you lookin' at me tryin' to keep it in the right lane
Gazing at you while you gaze back, endeavoring to remain in the correct lane


You and me two high beams in the dark
Just the two of us, with our high beams illuminating the darkness


Baby, let's drive
Darling, let's embark on a drive


'Til we find a place to park
Until we discover a location to park our vehicle


Kill the lights and let the stars get brighter
Turn off the lights and let the stars shine brighter


If you wanna smoke I gotta Swisher in the visor
If you desire to smoke, I possess a Swisher cigar in the sun visor


Lean the seat back, middle of nowhere
Recline the seat, stranded in the middle of nowhere


I can already see us out there
I already envision us in that environment


Where we at, yeah yeah yeah
Wherever we are, yeah yeah yeah


Let's drive 'til we find a place to park
Let's continue driving until we stumble upon a parking spot
