La vie en dope
K. Lee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hold me close and hold me fast
This magic spell you cast
This is la vie en rose

When you kiss me, heaven sighs
And though I close my eyes
I see la vie en rose
When you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom

And when you speak
Angels fly from above
Everyday words seem to turn
Into love songs

Give your heart and soul to me
Babe, it's gonna be
La vie en rose

Mmm, when you press me to your heart
I'm in a world apart
A world where roses bloom

And when you speak
Angels fly from above
Everyday words seem to turn
Into love songs

Give your heart, your soul to me




Babe, it's gonna be
La vie en rose

Overall Meaning

The song "La vie en dope" by K. Lee is a contemporary take on Edith Piaf's classic "La vie en rose". The song is an ode to love and the transformative power it can have on a person's life. The opening lines, "Hold me close and hold me fast, this magic spell you cast, this is la vie en rose", suggest that the singer is under the enchanting influence of their lover. The metaphor of a "magic spell" suggests that love has the power to bewitch and transform, and the repetition of "la vie en rose" emphasizes the rosy, optimistic view of life that love can bring.


The second verse focuses on physical intimacy and the sense of heightened awareness that comes with it. "When you kiss me, heaven sighs, and though I close my eyes, I see la vie en rose" suggests that the singer is literally transported to another world by their lover's touch. The third verse shifts to a more spiritual understanding of love, with lines like "when you speak, angels fly from above" and "everyday words seem to turn into love songs". This suggests that love has the power to elevate everyday experiences and imbue them with a mystical significance.
