Joseph Vincent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No matter where I go
There's always one thing that I'll know
That it's you, this much is true
And no I cannot complain
Cause it's so easy to maintain
The things in my life when I'm with you
PRE CHORUS
And I can't get enough, since you stung me with your love
CHORUS
You're my bumble bee, and I can say right now
We'll fly together, makin' honey with our nectar.
And I can finally see, with my hexagonal eyes
You're fine, be mine, cause you're my bumble bee
VERSE 2
See we started off friends but I could pretend
I knew you were for me
And no I'll never ever find
A prettier bumble bee
Oh I can't deny, I'll always need you by my side
And you know it's right, we even got some matchin' stripes
No I can't deny, that we're just friends is such a lie
PRECHORUS
And I can't get enough, since you stung me with your love
CHORUS
You're my bumble bee, and I can say right now
We'll fly together, makin' honey with our nectar.
And I can finally see, with my hexagonal eyes
You're fine, be mine, cause you're my bumble bee
BRIDGE
It is time to realize, that we are more than this, we're more than ordinary
Friends, I'll say it all again you know it's true, cause you feel the same
Way too
CHORUS
You're my bumble bee, and I can say right now
We'll fly together, makin' honey with our nectar.
And I can finally see, with my hexagonal eyes
You're fine, be mine, cause you're my bumble bee
The song "Bumblebee" by Joseph Vincent is a love song about finding that special person who just clicks with you perfectly. The metaphor of a bumblebee and its honey-making ability is used to describe the sweet and fruitful relationship between the singer and his beloved. He sings about how wherever he goes, he always knows that his partner is the one for him. He can't complain because their relationship is easy to maintain and he's always happy when he's with them.
The singer explains that they started off as friends, but he always knew they were meant to be together. He can't imagine finding anyone more beautiful than his partner, whom he affectionately calls his bumblebee. The lyrics in the pre-chorus describe how he is addicted to his partner's love, and he can't get enough of them since they "stung" him with their love. In the chorus, he professes his love for his partner by calling them his bumblebee, and he declares that they will "fly together, makin' honey with our nectar."
The bridge of the song emphasizes the fact that their love is more than just ordinary, and they are meant to be more than just friends. The lyrics in the bridge confirm that their feelings for each other are mutual, and they should make their relationship official. The song ends with the chorus once again, reiterating that the singer’s partner is his bumblebee, they belong together, and their love is sweet like honey.
