Arctic Monkeys – 505 lyrics
I'm going back to 505,
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive,
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side,
With your hands between your thighs,

Stop and wait a sec,
Oh when you look at me like that my darling,
What did you expect,
I probably still adore you with you hand around my neck,
Or I did last time I checked,

Not shy of a spark,
A knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark,
Frightened by the bite though it's no harsher than the bark
,
Middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start,

I'm going back to 505,
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive,
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side,
With your hands between your thighs,

But I crumble completely when you cry,
It seems like once again you've had to greet me with goodbye
,
I'm always just about to go and spoil a suprise,
Take my hands off of your eyes too soon,

I'm going back to 505,
If it's a 7 hour flight or a 45 minute drive,
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side,
With your hands between your thighs and a smile!

    The meaning of the song is that he is saying no matter how long it takes he will go back to her. He imagines her lying there with her hands between her thighs as laying there naked touching herself waiting for him. “I probably still will adore you with your hands around my neck” is saying he will still love her even if she was trying to kill him but then he adds in “or I did last time I checked” as in turning it into a sexual thing with last time her hands were around his neck. “The knife twists at the thought I should fall short of the mark” he’s talking about it would kill him knowing if he fell short at pleasing her. “But I fall completely when you cry” since followed by “it seems like once again you’ve had to greet me with goodbye” means he’s saying that it hurts him to see her cry cuz he has to go basically as fast as he got there. This is a love a song about him being on tour yet he will still go to her no matter how long it takes just to see her but it also causes him pain to see how he hurts her cuz he can’t be with her as much as they both want.
