If you're going out with someone new
I'm going out with someone too
I won't feel sorry for me, I'm getting drunk
But I'd much rather be somewhere with you

Laughing loud on a carnival ride, yeah
Driving around, Saturday night
You made fun of me for singing my song
Got a hotel room just to turn you on

Said pick me up at 3 AM
You're fighting with your mom again
And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go somewhere with you, yeah

I won't sit outside your house
Wait for the lights to go out
Call up an ex to rescue me and climb in their bed
When I'd much rather sleep somewhere with you

Like we did on the beach last summer
When the rain came down and we took cover
Down in your car, out by the pier
Laid me down, whispered in my ear

"I hate my life, hold on to me
Ah, if you ever decide to leave
Then I'll go, I'll go, I'll go"

I can go out every night of the week
Can go home with anybody I meet
But it's just a temporary high
'Cause when I close my eyes
I'm somewhere with you, somewhere with you

If you see me out on the town
And it looks like I'm burning it down
You won't ask and I won't say
But in my heart I'm always somewhere with you

Laughing loud on a carnival ride, yeah
Driving around, Saturday night
You made fun of me for singing my song
Got a hotel room just to turn you on

You said pick me up at 3 AM
You're fighting with your mom again
And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go

I can go out every night of the week
Can go home with anybody I meet
But it's just a temporary high
'Cause when I close my eyes
I'm somewhere with you, somewhere with you
Somewhere with you, I'm somewhere with you

Somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
Somewhere with you

    My Interpretation

    This song is about a guy who was dating a girl and they broke up after a long time. The two were completely in love and something happened to cause them to go their separate ways. Now that some time has passed, they are both going out with new people ("If you're going out with someone new, I'm going out with someone too"), but the guy cannot seem to get the girl off his mind and keeps reminiscing on their memories together. He goes through some of his favorite memories and then says that no matter what he's doing, he would always rather be with her. He even goes as far as to say that no girl will ever compare to her because he would rather be with her than any other girl he meets ("I can go out every night of the week, can go home with anybody I meet, but it's just a temporary high, 'cause when I close my eyes, I'm somewhere with you."). It says that if they see each other out one day, they won't speak and he knows it but, even after all this, he's still always going to be with her in his heart ("If you see me out on the town and it looks like I'm burning it down, you won't ask and I won't say, but in my heart I'll always be somewhere with you.") It is a song expressing the love that has not left even after all the time of separation that they have had since the breakup.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Amazing
