Lippie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Flowers, all around
With mind of leafs
Flowers all around
Wirlwind of leafs

And you, inside
Like a shadow
Swept away
With the dreams
Of the dawn
To bring me closer
A last Kiss
I can give to you,
my lovely mommy…

Flowers all around
With mind of leafs
Flowers all around
With mind of leafs

And you, inside
Like a shadow
With the dreams
Of the dawn
With no lights
To warm you
To bring me closer
A last kiss




I can give to you,
my lovely mommy…

Overall Meaning

The song "Flowers" by Lippie is a melancholic tribute to a mother figure who has passed away, leaving the singer feeling lost and alone. The opening lines "Flowers all around, with mind of leafs, whirlwind of leafs" evoke a sense of movement and impermanence, hinting at the cyclical nature of life and death. The flowers and leaves mimic the transient beauty and fragility of life. In the absence of her mother, the singer feels like a shadow, swept away by the dreams of the dawn. The refrain, "Flowers all around, with mind of leafs" is repeated throughout the song, acting both as a mournful refrain and a reminder of the cycle of life.


The singer's yearning for her mother's presence is evident in lines like "With no lights to warm you, to bring me closer, a last kiss I can give to you, my lovely mommy..." The absence of light and warmth, symbolic of the mother's nurturing presence, intensifies the singer's feelings of isolation and despair. The song ends on a heartbreaking note as the singer acknowledges that even though her mother is gone, she will always be with her in spirit.


Overall, "Flowers" is a poignant and introspective song that explores themes of loss, grief, and the fleeting nature of life.
