Taste
Rhye Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not awake, I'm not alone
You're right beside my face
Will you love me this way?
'Cause I'm dancing with my eyes closed
It's okay, it's me, babe
One more time for my taste

One more time for my taste
See me fall from your eyes to your waist
One more time for my taste
Drink this wine from your sweet, from your case
I feel your love, I feel your faith always

You're not awake, you're not alone
I'm calling off that fragile case
Half way
Are you dancing with your eyes closed?
It's okay, it's me, babe
One more time for my taste

I'll lick your wounds
I'll lay you down

One more time for my taste
See me fall from your eyes to your waist
One more time for my taste
Drink this wine from your sweet, from your case

I feel your love, I feel your faith always
See me fall from your eyes to your waist
I feel your love, I feel your faith always
One more time for my taste
One more time for my
One more time for my
One more time for my
One more time for my home

I'll lick your wounds
I'll lay you down
I'll lick your wounds
I'll lay you down
I'll lick your wounds




I'll lay you down
I'll lay you down

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rhye's song Taste reflect a deep emotional connection between two individuals who seem to share an intense and personal relationship. The line "I'm not awake, I'm not alone, You're right beside my face, Will you love me this way?" suggests that the singer is feeling vulnerable and unsure, but finds comfort in the presence of their partner. They then continue with the line "Cause I'm dancing with my eyes closed, It's okay, it's me, babe, One more time for my taste", indicating that they are willing to trust their partner to guide them and be with them entirely, despite the risks. The references to licking wounds and laying down also suggests a caring and nurturing tone, possibly indicating that one partner is helping the other through a difficult time.


The repetitive use of "one more time" throughout the song could also be interpreted as a desire to hold onto a moment that is fleeting or non-permanent. In the context of the song’s meaning, the singer may be trying to savor a particular taste of intimacy and emotional vulnerability with his lover before that special moment dissipates in life’s chaos.
