Curious
Naomi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The first line is always the hardest one to write,
'Cause how do you try to explain why your favourite colour is green?
The first touch is always the shiest one to make.

This vivid face of yours,
In counted moments.
This childlike sigh of yours,
Whenever you are sad.

It all makes me
Curious for more.

The first step is always the toughest one to take,
'Cause how do you try to explain why your favourite colour is green?
The first step,

This vivid face of yours,
In counted moments.
This childlike sigh of yours,
Whenever you are sad.

It all makes me
Curious for more.
You make me
Curious for more.
You make me
Curious for more.

It all makes me
Curious for more.
You make me
Curious for more.

It all makes me
Curious for more.




You make me
Curious for more.

Overall Meaning

In "Curious" by Naomi, the singer contemplates the difficulty of expressing herself, as well as the allure of the person she's addressing. The first line is presented as a hurdle to overcome, and it's compared to the difficulty of explaining one's favorite color, something that should be a simple task. Similarly, the first touch is shy, and the first step is tough, which reinforces the idea that taking that initial plunge can be quite challenging. However, the repeated refrain of "It all makes me curious for more" conveys the sense that despite any setbacks, the singer is still drawn to this person and wants to know more about them.


The following two stanzas echo the opening lines, with the focus still on the other person's vivid face and childlike sighs. These details suggest a warmth and vulnerability that pull the singer in. This is likely what makes expressing her feelings so challenging - the intensity of her interest may be hard to communicate. Nonetheless, the singer remains intrigued by this person, driven by an insatiable curiosity.
