FEVER
花伸 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I turn on my t.v.
But I can't keep my mind on the show
When I lay down at night
I don't get no sleep
So I turn on the radio
But, lord, the only thing I hear
Is you whisperin' in my ear
Well, now the days grow longer
My love grows stronger
And the fever gets worse every day
I got a fever for a girl
He's got the fever
Oh, he's got the fever
Nothing that a boy can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
He's got the fever
Oh, he's got the fever
Left this little boy blue
I can remember comin' home
See you standin' at the stove
With the dishes on the table
Dinner ready to go
Or maybe out to a movie show
Something that you'd like to see
Oh, you were my sun in the morning
And my moon at night
When you put your arms around me
Made me fell alright
Well, now the days grow longer
And my love just grows stronger
And the fever gets so bad at night
I got a fever for a girl
He's got the fever
Oh, he's got the fever nothing that a boy can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
He's got the fever
Oh, he's got the fever
Left this little boy blue
It's gonna be alright, now
If I can make it to the morning
I'm gonna be alright, now
If I can just make it to the morning
It's just this long and lonely nights
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is her face
Every time I shut my eyes
All I see is her face
But I'm gonna be alright, now
I'll be alright, now
When I shut down all the lights
When I turn off all the lights
When I turn down all the lights
And when I lay my head on the pillow
I can't stop myself in thinking
"Baby, where are you tonight? "
"Where is she tonight? "
The lyrics to "Fever" by 花伸 narrate the story of a man who cannot stop thinking about a woman he is in love with. He comes back from work and tries to distract himself by watching TV, but her memory keeps haunting him. At night, he struggles to fall asleep and resorts to listening to the radio, hoping to hear a song that reminds him of her. He reminisces about the moments they spent together, such as having dinner or going to the movies. The more he thinks of her, the worse his fever grows, and he becomes obsessed with her memory. He tries to console himself, telling himself that he will be alright, but these thoughts keep lingering in his mind.
The lyrics depict unrequited love, an emotion that almost everyone has experienced at some point in their lives. The man is hopelessly in love with the woman, but she might not feel the same way. The chorus repeats that he has a fever for a girl and nothing that a boy can do. This line emphasizes that his desires are out of his control, and he is powerless in the face of his affection. The verses paint a picture of his life, but the refrain insists on his feelings. He desperately wants to forget her, but she keeps coming back into his thoughts, and his fever keeps rising.

When I get home from my job
When I return home from work
I turn on my t.v.
I switch on the television
But I can't keep my mind on the show
However, I am unable to concentrate on the program
When I lay down at night
As I lie down at night
I don't get no sleep
I am unable to sleep
So I turn on the radio
Hence, I turn on the radio
But, lord, the only thing I hear
Unfortunately, I only hear
Is you whisperin' in my ear
Your whisper in my ear
The words that you used to say
The words you used to speak
Well, now the days grow longer
Now that the days are becoming longer
My love grows stronger
My love for you becomes stronger
And the fever gets worse every day
And the obsession gets worse every day
I got a fever for a girl
I am obsessed with a girl
He's got the fever
He is obsessed
Oh, he's got the fever
Oh, he is obsessed
Nothing that a boy can do
There is nothing he can do
When he's got the fever for a girl
When he is obsessed with the girl
Left this little boy blue
I am feeling lonely and sad
I can remember comin' home
I can recall coming home
See you standin' at the stove
Seeing you standing at the stove
With the dishes on the table
With the plates on the table
Dinner ready to go
Dinner is ready to be served
Or maybe out to a movie show
Or perhaps going to the cinema
Something that you'd like to see
Something that you would like to watch
Oh, you were my sun in the morning
You were my sunshine in the morning
And my moon at night
And my moonlight at night
When you put your arms around me
When you hugged me
Made me fell alright
It made me feel alright
It's gonna be alright, now
Everything will be fine now
If I can make it to the morning
If I can last till morning
I'm gonna be alright, now
I will be okay now
It's just this long and lonely nights
It is these long, lonely nights
Every time I close my eyes
Whenever I shut my eyes
All I see is her face
All I see is her face
But I'm gonna be alright, now
However, I will be okay now
I'll be alright, now
I will be fine now
When I shut down all the lights
When I turn off all the lights
When I turn off all the lights
When I switch off all the lights
When I turn down all the lights
When I dim all the lights
And when I lay my head on the pillow
When I rest my head on the pillow
I can't stop myself in thinking
I cannot stop thinking
Baby, where are you tonight?
Where are you tonight, my dear?
Where is she tonight?
Where is the girl tonight?
