Honeymoon Avenue

Ariana Grande
Yours Truly (Tenth Anniversary Edition)

이 노래 이야기

화자는 한때 설렜던 연애가 어긋나기 시작한 상황을 운전과 교통 상황에 비유한다. "Baby, you know how to drive in rain / And you decided not to make a change / Stuck in the same old lane, goin' the wrong way home"처럼 관계가 제자리를 맴돌고 있다고 느낀다.

"I feel like my heart is stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic"이라는 구절은 답답하게 막힌 마음 상태를 교통 체증에 빗대어 표현한다. "Let's just go back to the way it was, when we were on Honeymoon Avenue"라는 후렴은 설렘 넘치던 초반으로 돌아가고 싶은 바람을 길 이름에 담아 되풀이한다.
