Blossoms In The Street Lyrics
It was brief mad affair
A place where men don't dar
But man has no place for me here
In the distance there was fun
In front of me there was none
And reservation stared me in the ey
Silently volatile
You broke me down on trial
And asked me if I changed my life
No thanks, not tonight
Blossoms in the street
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me
Ba da ba da bom bom owwww
So I put guns away
I shaved my legs today
In hope someone may want to touch my skin
So don't bother to be coy
All it does is annoy
Is this where we start, is this where we begin?
Silently volatile
You broke me down on trial yeah
And asked me if I changed my life
Oh well no thanks, no tonight
Oh oh oh blossoms in the street
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in...
Blossoms in the street
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is someone who believes in...
Blossoms in the street
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me
A place where men don't dar
But man has no place for me here
In front of me there was none
And reservation stared me in the ey
You broke me down on trial
And asked me if I changed my life
No thanks, not tonight
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me
I shaved my legs today
In hope someone may want to touch my skin
So don't bother to be coy
All it does is annoy
Is this where we start, is this where we begin?
You broke me down on trial yeah
And asked me if I changed my life
Oh well no thanks, no tonight
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in...
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is someone who believes in...
Nearly, lost in pleasantries
Nearly, pushed me off my feet
There is, someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me
Someone who believes in me

This song is phenomenal! It seems to be about a woman seeking the company of a man who denies her, but then she springs back to find someone that believes in her.
I agree the song is brilliant. Even better when it's live. This woman is just a ball of energy in concert and a great pleasure to the ears. Hmm I don't know... the woman is definitely not seeking the company of a man "a brief mad affair a place where men don't dare but man has no place for me here". And knowing that she's gay there's not really a doubt about that.

Me neither, i don't think it's her seeking the company of a man. I think it's her wanting to pickup somebody - let's say another woman -, what she really did, but this was someone, who later wanted this to be more than just a "brief mad affair". At first, like i said, it was just an affair (in the distance there was fun), but then it became more serious for this other woman, who doesn't want to go on just like this (in front of me there was none, and reservation stared me in the eye). But she (wallis, or whoever) gets...
Me neither, i don't think it's her seeking the company of a man.

At first, like i said, it was just an affair (in the distance there was fun), but then it became more serious for this other woman, who doesn't want to go on just like this (in front of me there was none, and reservation stared me in the eye). But she (wallis, or whoever) gets somehow torn into this and got "broken down on trial", and was confronted by this other woman to give in to a relationship, but she (wallis) thinks of it like a fundamental change in her life, like it would be too much, because she doesn't kind of do relationships.
But then the refrain suggests, that she herself is surprised by the situation, hesitates, and realises that this would have been a chance to have a deeper relationship to someone than just easy pickups (there is someone who believes in me), but still she declined (nearly pushed me off my feet).
So she just moves on and keeps on doing her pickup-thing (So I put guns away, I shaved my legs today, In hope someone may want to touch my skin. So don't bother to be coy, All it does is annoy). But then she asks herself, if this makes any sense going on like this (Is this where we start, is this where we begin?).
