Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,
But not as sweet as you
Roses are red and
Violets are blue.

Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

Come pick my Roses!

Sweet from the flowers
Honey from the bees
I've got a feeling,
I'm ready to release

Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,
But not as sweet as you.

It's invisible but, so touchable
And I can feel it on my body,
So emotional.
I'm on a ride, on a ride

I'm a passenger.
I'm a victim of a hot love messenger.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

And roses are red.
Come with me baby,
Please fulfill my wish
Show it to me truly,

Show me with a kiss.
Roses are red and
Violets are blue
Honey is sweet,

But not as sweet as you.
It's invisible but, so touchable
And I can feel it on my body,
So emotional.

I'm on a ride, on a ride
I'm a passenger.
I'm a victim of a hot love messenger.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
And roses are red.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

Don't take my roses away!
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing he said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
And roses are red.

Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da

The only thing you said was
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
Dumb di dia di da
My roses are red.

Oooh oooh oooh, yeah!
Ad id aid id mud
Ad id aid id mud

    Yea.. This song is definitely sexual. Whatever gotan said up there made so sense at all, lol.

    But anyways, this song is pretty sweet (as are all Aqua songs). The beginning is the best, when he's like "come pick my roses" and then there's that little techo/dance beat playing. That part makes me wanna dance. :]

Standing On The Edge Of Summer
Thursday
In regards to the meaning of this song: Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.” That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
