Watermelon Sugar
Helvetia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tastes like strawberries
On a summer evening
And it sounds just like a song
I want more berries
And that summer feeling
It′s so wonderful and warm
Breathe me in
Breathe me out
I don't know if I could ever go without
I′m just thinking out loud
I don't know if I could ever go without

Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar high
Watermelon sugar
Strawberries
On a summer evening
Baby, you're the end of June
I want your belly
And that summer feeling
Getting washed away in you
Breathe me in
Breathe me out
I don′t know if I could ever go without

Watermelon sugar high

I just wanna taste it
I just wanna taste it
Watermelon sugar high

Tastes like strawberries
On a summer evening
And it sounds just like a song
I want your belly
And that summer feeling
I don′t know if I could ever go without

Watermelon sugar high

I just wanna taste it
I just wanna taste it
Watermelon sugar high
I just wanna taste it
I just wanna taste it
Watermelon sugar high
