I'm Coming After You Lyrics

I saw your face in a criminal sketch
Don't be alarmed 'cause you don't know me yet
I'm on the prowl now, sniffing around this town for you
Calling all cars, there's an officer down
Shot to the heart on the night on the town, and
The evidence of your fingerprints was found, and now

You got the right to remain right here with me
I'm on your tail in a hot pursuit
Love is a high speed chase racing down the street

Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you

Oh no, here we go once again
We both know you'll never turn yourself in
So I'm driving 'till it's light out, searching for your hideout
(Driving 'till it's light out, searching for your hideout)
Pick up the pace as I chase you around
One of these days I'll end up tracking you down
But yeah, I've got the feeling I'll be letting you loose when I do

Because you, you got the right to remain right here with me
I'm on your tail in a hot pursuit
Love is a high speed chase racing down the street
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you

You got the right to remain right here with me
I'm on your tail in a hot pursuit
Love is a high speed chase racing down the street

Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
(Love is a high speed chase racing down the street)

You got the right to remain right here with me
I'm on your tail in a hot pursuit
Love is a high speed chase racing down the street

Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you
Woo-oo woo-oo woo, I'm coming after you

I'm coming after you
I'm coming after you!

When you're commenting, there's really no point saying it's obvious what the song is about, and then don't even state your opinion. People come on here to find out the meanings of the song, not to find out that other people know what it's about. Just saying. But yeah, anyway. I'm pretty sure this song is about a boy chasing a girl he likes but she keeps getting away.

"One of these days I'll end up trackin' you down But, yeah, I got the feeling I'll be letting you loose when I do".

This probably means by the time he's caught her, he's practically given up, and thinks it's better for her to be with someone she loves. He can never really get over her, but he's giving up the chase, in hopes she'll be coming back for him one day. That's my perspective of this song anyway.

@OldOakTree \r\nYou are so narrow minded.

I've ALWAYS wanted to ask Adam Young what this song was really about, but I'm hope I'm right in thinking that this song is about God's (supposed) love for us. He's always on the chase for us, but when he does gut us, He'll let us go, or make our own decisions if we want to love him back. And also when the song says that he knows we'll never turn ourselves in is another possibility in the song being a religious point of view. But then again, I could be totally wrong, so PLEASE don't take my word for it.

It's obvious what this song is about. It's probably one of my favorites though on The Midsummer Station. I really like the metaphor comparing the it to a chase between the police and a thief.
