Bliss
Dianas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tired too
Got energy I can’t move
So I lie down in my room
Start to think about you
Honey
I’m not bored
Got things to do or ignore
And I think about you
One kiss
Is bliss
I’m so into this
How is it
That you
Steal hours like you do
When I lie down in my room
And I think about you
One kiss
Is bliss
I’m so into this
It’s better when you’re with me
In Diana's song Bliss, she describes the feeling of being nervous and tired, but also having an energy that she cannot control, which prevents her from being able to move. She finds herself lying down in her room and thinking about someone special, who she calls "honey." Despite having things to do, she cannot help but think about this person, and she realizes that being with them is what brings her true happiness. Diana repeats throughout the song how 'One kiss is bliss' and how she is so into this person, and the music adds a dreamy element to her yearning for them.
The repetitiveness of the lyrics and melody add to the idea that Diana cannot get this person off her mind. The song has a slow, atmospheric feel, which creates a feeling of longing and desire. The focus on the idea of a kiss being pure 'bliss' implies that this is a new or young love, where everything is new and exciting. It's a song that captures the blissful feeling of being in love, with yourself or another person.
