Red Dress
Monkey Majik + m-flo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The girl with the red dress,
She is standing just to confess.
Has an eye for fancy things,
He buys her diamond rings.
With high heels,just walking,
She has got everyone talking
About who is next in line,
To take her out,and dine.
She knows how it feels,
She makes
all the world turn for her,
She knows, ooh! I know.
And he knows how it feels,
Not on his own,
he is chasing at her,
He knows,ooh! Everyone knows.
"I love her,
oh! I love her,
I love her."
"I love her,
oh! I love her,
I love her."

Spending everyday
outside her doorway,
The light goes out,
the window is open,
I hear her sleeping.
The ground below me never moves,
I'm stuck right here.
Wishing she would
fly out with a rope,
To pull me near.
She don't know how I feel,
I would give up
all my kingdom for her,
I know, ooh! I know.
And she knows how it feels,
She makes
all the world turn for her,
She knows, I know.
Oh! I love her I love her.
I love her oh! I love her.
Oh! I love her I love her.
Looking at your window
with the curtain slightly
Open there is a mirror
And in that mirror
I see a reflection
Of a cloth that is satin red.
Black car in the driveway,
how does it feel?
I don't know.
A penguin with a bouquet,
what does it mean?
I think I know.
He loves her? Yeah he loves her,
he loves her
he loves her,
And she loves him!




And I lost her.
Oh no!
