its amazing how far music can come.. 24 years after it released and its one of the most heartfelt songs ive heard
In the east and in the west
Every bird will seek its' nest
Everyone will seek its' home
Home is where the heart goes
And the moon will rise and fall
And the light will touch the tide
Are we holding hands and never feeling?
All around the world we sing
Like a penny in a spin
Always looking for the way
To get out, to get in
[Chorus]
Love is the groove in which we move
Love is the groove in which we move
Love is the groove in which we move
In the alleys o Monsay
In the streets of Katmandu
On the high roads of Peru
People meet and touch and go
But the wind of change will blow
And another dance will start
And I'll finally get the point
Like an arrow to my heart
[Chorus]
Look back where's the sea
Who brought this mystery?
Deep in another world
Someone is listening
And they as with night
And we keep asking why
Look back there's the key
Deep in another life
On this ship in which we sail
Everything is possible
Keep on turning like a star
Till you get to where you are
If I promise not to laugh
Will you promise not to cry?
Will you promise not to let this life
Slip by?
Every bird will seek its' nest
Everyone will seek its' home
Home is where the heart goes
And the moon will rise and fall
And the light will touch the tide
Are we holding hands and never feeling?
All around the world we sing
Like a penny in a spin
Always looking for the way
To get out, to get in
[Chorus]
Love is the groove in which we move
Love is the groove in which we move
Love is the groove in which we move
In the alleys o Monsay
In the streets of Katmandu
On the high roads of Peru
People meet and touch and go
But the wind of change will blow
And another dance will start
And I'll finally get the point
Like an arrow to my heart
[Chorus]
Look back where's the sea
Who brought this mystery?
Deep in another world
Someone is listening
And they as with night
And we keep asking why
Look back there's the key
Deep in another life
On this ship in which we sail
Everything is possible
Keep on turning like a star
Till you get to where you are
If I promise not to laugh
Will you promise not to cry?
Will you promise not to let this life
Slip by?

The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song

Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
