Romance
Dr. Sounds Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey man, what do you see
There's a pretty little girl looking back at me
I wanna sing her a sweet melody
The only problem is I don't know how to sing
Looking at her is a felony
But I really seem to enjoy her company
Does she feel the same as me?
Or is she talking to me out of sympathy
Oh girl I really wish that we could make this happen
Oh babe, this really hurts me more than you can imagine
Oh darling I can hear everybody laughing'
Oh honey, I'm sorry for the situation you've been dragged in
Hey man, turn away
I can't, this is a price I'd gladly pay
I don't think I would ever leave
The pretty little girl looking back at me
When I'm sitting next to her
I really feel like this is meant to be
But this is a fantasy
And it will never ever be reality
Oh girl I really wish that we could make this happen
Oh babe, this really hurts me more than you can imagine
Oh darling I can hear everybody laughing'
Oh honey, I'm sorry for the situation you've been dragged in
Stay away from her
Forget what you have heard
I want to confess to her
But I'm so insecure
Oh girl I really wish that we could make this happen
Oh babe, this really hurts me more than you can imagine




Oh darling I can hear everybody laughing'
Oh honey, I'm sorry for the situation you've been dragged in

Overall Meaning

In "Romance," the singer is addressing another person, possibly a friend, and expressing their feelings towards a "pretty little girl" that they see. The singer admits their attraction and desire to connect with her by singing her a sweet melody. However, there is a problem, as the singer confesses they don't know how to sing, suggesting a lack of confidence or skill in expressing themselves.


The singer acknowledges that simply looking at the girl feels like a crime and admits to enjoying her company. They wonder if she feels the same way about them or if her interactions are out of sympathy. The singer expresses their longing for a romantic relationship with her, wishing for the opportunity to make it happen. They convey deep emotional pain and apologize for the difficult situation the girl may find herself in by being involved with them.


Despite the potential consequences and the advice from others to stay away, the singer cannot turn away from their feelings. They express a willingness to pay the price of longing for the girl and imply that leaving her would be unthinkable. Sitting next to her makes them believe that it is meant to be, creating a sense of a special connection. However, they also acknowledge that this feeling is ultimately a fantasy and will never become a reality.


The singer admits feeling insecure and unsure about confessing their feelings to the girl. They express a strong desire to do so but are plagued by self-doubt. They reiterate their wish for a relationship with her, emphasizing the emotional pain they experience due to their situation. The singer acknowledges that they can hear others laughing, implying that their attraction to the girl may be seen as unrealistic or comical by those around them. Once again, they apologize to the girl for any negative consequences she may face due to her involvement with them.
