Little Girl
Monogram Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh little girl what made you blue
Like down deep deep
inside the ocean deep
Tears running down down
your face just like a river
I'm right here for you
The angels
we'll come down to guide us
All through the night
Through the night
Through the night
Even if the moon is falling down
We will be safe and sound
Tonight Tonight
Tonight
Oh little girl stay sound asleep
Sound asleep
Oh little one it's not your fault
Oh little one please stay with me
What's down deep deep
inside deep in your heart
Tell me right now
I'm always by your side
So come here and come close
I'm right here for you
The angels
we'll come down to guide us
All through the night
Through the night
Through the night
Even if the moon is falling down
We will be safe and sound
Tonight Tonight
Tonight
Oh little girl stay sound asleep
Sound asleep
Sound asleep
Like the winter snow
So white and cold
Your pain will come and melt away
The spring will come
But until then
Please don't forget that
I'm here by your side your side
Your side
Tonight Tonight
Even if the angels die tonight
Even if the sky is falling tonight
Oh little girl you stay sleeping
Oh little girl dream a bit more
For a while
The song "Little Girl" by Monogram begins with a question directed at the little girl who is crying, and the second line repeats the question. It is evident from her tears that she is deeply upset about something. The lyrics state that her tears are just like a river, which suggests that they are unrestrained and moving freely. Through the lines 'Tears running down down,' the songwriter symbolizes the depth of the little girl's sorrow, which is further emphasized by the comparison to the ocean.
The singer then invites the girl to come closer to them, emphasizing that they are always here for her. They reassure her that the angels will come down to guide them and protect them during the night. The song's chorus suggests that nothing will harm them, even if the moon is falling down. The lyrics then urge the little girl to stay sound asleep, and the singer reassures her that it is not her fault that she is upset.
The lyrics indicate that the little girl must have something heavy on her heart that is weighing her down. The songwriter asks her to open up to them and confide in them because they are always there for her. The pain that she is experiencing, symbolized in the winter snow, will come and melt away, and the arrival of spring will bring joy and happiness. Consequently, they implore her to hold on and not forget that they are by her side because, after the storm, the sun always shines.
