Why is the song Chasing Cars named Chasing Cars?

Answer 1

Chasing cars is named so because of an infatuation Gary Lightbody had when he was younger, his dad told him :"You're like a dog chasing a car. You'll never catch it and you just wouldn't know what to do with it if you did." This is where the phrase "chasing cars" comes from. Hope this helped (:

Answer 2

It's about just chilling and having a nice time with a loved one.
