Oh girl, I don't know all the reasons why
I found the answer looking in your eye
I go out walking all day long
Take away this lonely man, soon he will be gone
'Cause I'll tell you everything about living free
Yes, I can see you girl, can you see me?
You don't need to know what I do all day
It's as much as I know watch it waste away
'Cause I'll tell you everything about living free
Yes, I can see you girl, can you see me?
Go and see the sorcerer and look into the ball
You may find the answer written on the wall
The left one was a dancer
Can you see the answer, oh?
Put her on a mansion on top of a hill
Please don't make her do the things against her will
I found something special, I don't know why
Looking into her pretty little eye
'Cause I'll tell you everything about being free
References to the narrator
References to stalking
When analysing the lyrics I found the song to be have implications of stalking throughout the songs run. The narrator mentions himself as a lonely man however he also seems to speak of being free and the implication that freedom is not all its made out to be. This could be taken in a straight forward dark way of him wanting to imprison this woman however I think if the song is supposed to be about a stalker I would imagine that the narrator of the song is far more complex than this. He appears to have lost meaning in his life and has found meaning from his observations of this woman.
There references to stalking are prominent with the line "I can see you girl, can you see me?" this is what has prompted me to pitch the idea of a stalker in our music video. This could make the video surprisingly sinister as there would be a huge contrast in the sound of the music and the lyrics/video of the song.
