Delphine
Kadhja Bonet Lyrics

What's it mean, Delphine
Kadhja is curious about the meaning behind a letter Delphine sent her

Delphine, Delphine
Kadhja is addressing Delphine

This letter you wrote to me?
Kadhja is referring to the letter Delphine sent her

Does it read "goodbye"?
Kadhja wonders if Delphine wrote to say goodbye

Maybe a strange "hello"?
Kadhja considers whether Delphine's letter could be a unique greeting

You know I've always been the first to try
Kadhja is confident in her ability to try new things

Something new for you and me
Kadhja likes trying new experiences with Delphine

I know the distance can confuse your mind
Kadhja understands that distance can be disorienting for Delphine

Give it time, Delphine, you will see
Kadhja encourages Delphine to be patient and things will make more sense

Could this be about growing veins
Kadhja raises the prospect that Delphine's letter might be about something deeper

And feeling lost?
Kadhja suggests that Delphine could be dealing with feelings of confusion or uncertainty

Lost
Kadhja repeats the word lost to emphasize Delphine's emotional state

I know exactly where you are, Delphine
Kadhja is sure of Delphine's physical location

You're right here
Kadhja believes Delphine is with her

With me
Kadhja repeats that Delphine is with her

Where you belong
Kadhja asserts that Delphine is where she is meant to be

A little bit of time
Kadhja thinks that time will provide answers to Delphine's concerns

Ask her (?)
This line is unclear but seems to refer to someone that Kadhja wants to contact

We should stop by
Kadhja suggests that she and Delphine should visit someone together

I said tea with lips (?)
This line is unclear but could refer to the kind of drink they would have

She comes at 5
Kadhja is referring to someone who will arrive at 5 PM

I found your favorite ring (?)
Kadhja mentions finding something important to Delphine

Behind the bed
Kadhja reveals where she found Delphine's ring

What's the matter
Kadhja is concerned about what is bothering Delphine

Sweet, sweet Delphine?
Kadhja affectionately addresses Delphine

I know exactly who you are, Delphine
Kadhja claims to know Delphine quite well

You're the one for me
Kadhja expresses her affection for Delphine

Give it time, Delphine
Kadhja advises Delphine yet again to be patient
