Rasmus Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I wish I had a bone
Long 'n' wide white you know, what I'm talking about, just a fine bite
I wish I had a home
To cover me at night, yeah
I make a wish again that it would be summertime, I'd be fine
I I I I!
I can hear the winter's crawling
I wish another time that it would be summertime
I can see that leaves are falling
I can see that leaves are falling
Yeah
Sophia
Sophia
I wish I had a life
Oh yes, I'm gonna fight
Though I got fleas, you know, I want to be a part of your life
I wish I was fine
I'm living like a mutt
Though I got fleas I know, I'm not wasting my time
I I I I!
Any other time I'm fine in the morning
I can hear the winter's crawling
I wish another time that it would be summertime
I can see that leaves are falling x2
Yeah
Sophia Sophia
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
Don't loose me, hey Sophia choose me!
The lyrics to Rasmus's song Sophia explore feelings of loneliness and longing for connection. The singer wishes for a home and a bone to keep him company at night, but ultimately desires the love and acceptance of a woman named Sophia. He declares that he will fight for a better life, despite his current struggles and challenges. The repetitious phrases "I wish" and "Sophia" drive home the singer's desires and hopes.
The repeated mention of summertime versus winter and falling leaves creates a sense of longing for change and growth. The singer is stuck in a life that feels like it's passing him by, and he wants something more. The lyrics culminate in the plea to Sophia to choose him and not let him slip away.
