Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Honey honey, nearly kill me, a-ha, honey honey
I'd heard about you before
I wanted to know some more
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine
Oh, you make me dizzy
Honey honey, let me feel it, a-ha, honey honey
Honey honey, don't conceal it, a-ha, honey honey
The way that you hold me tight
I feel like I wanna sing when you do your thing
I don't wanna hurt you baby, I don't wanna see you cry
So stay on the ground girl, you better not get too high
But I'm gonna stick to you boy, you'll never get rid of me
There's no other place in this world where I rather would be
Honey honey, touch me baby, a-ha, honey honey
Honey honey, hold me baby, a-ha, honey honey
You look like a movie star (look like a movie star)
But I know just who you are (I wonder just who you are)
And honey, to say the least, you're a doggone beast
So stay on the ground girl, you better not get too high
There's no other place in this world where I rather would be
Honey honey, how you thrill me, a-ha, honey honey
Honey honey, nearly kill me, a-ha, honey honey
I'd heard about you before (I'd heard about you before)
I wanted to know some more (I wanted to know you some more)
And now I know what they mean, you're a love machine Oh, you make me dizzy
The lyrics to ABBA's song Honey Honey are a playful and flirtatious declaration of love. The singer expresses how thrilled and almost dizzy she is when she is with her lover, whom she calls a "love machine." Despite feeling so strongly for him, she tries to play it cool and not get too high, so as not to get hurt or hurt him. She doesn't want to be parted from him and sees no other place in the world where she would rather be than with him.
The song captures the heady rush of falling in love and being smitten by someone's charms. The singer is enamoured by her lover's kiss and the way he holds her tight, and even though she knows who he is, she still thinks of him as a movie star. With its catchy melody and upbeat tempo, Honey Honey is a quintessential ABBA song that celebrates the joy and excitement of romance.
