“Rosered is a pixie of perfection, writing silver-tongued melodies that you might dance to if you found yourself becharmed in a fairy ring. But listen to the lyrics and find yourself brought gently to earth by a healthy dose of realism. Just don’t tell the pixies! Welcome to the world of Rosered.”Claire Robson~Honeywitch
“A new age female Bob Dylan…” ~ Clare Blackman.

Outside
RoseRed and the Butterflies Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Which is more important in the long run?
Do you really wanna talk about it?
Take it to the back veranda
Have a drink and talk around it
In the end it doesn't matter
In the end we all go home
Music's in the kiss we hold
Which came first, the love or the love song?
I'm sorry, I guess I was wrong
Let us find a tune without a sound
Find a place that no one's found
Pick it up and put it down
In the end it doesn't matter
In the end they all go home
I thought about it for a minute
Music's in the kiss we hold
Music is a walk outside
Aah, Ahh
Aah, Ahh, Ahh
Clever lines and clever lyrics
All boil down to what goes in them
If they find life then so do we
Aah...
Yeah, uh-huh, I think we're alive
Music is a walk outside
Think about it for a minute
In the end we all go home
Music's in the things that matter
Hear it in the kiss we hold
Music is a walk outside
Which came first, the love or the love song?
Which came first, the love or the love song?
Which came first, the love or the love song?
Which came first, the love or the love song?
The lyrics of "Outside" by RoseRed and the Butterflies speak to the eternal debate about which is more important, love or the love song that celebrates it. The singer poses the question, wondering which came first in the grand scheme of things. However, while the question is interesting, the singer acknowledges that it ultimately doesn't matter. In the end, we all go home, and what is truly important is the emotional connection that love and music evoke.
The singer suggests taking the discussion to the back veranda and having a drink in order to talk around the question. Ultimately, they seem to settle on the idea that music is found in the kiss we hold, rather than in any clever lyrics or clever lines. The singer concludes that music is a walk outside and is found in the things that matter most, like the intimate moments between two people.
The song is a poignant meditation on the nature of love and the role that music plays in our lives. It encourages us to look at the bigger picture and remind us that it is not the debate that matters, but rather what we do with the concepts of both love and the music that celebrates it.

Take it to the back veranda
Let's move this conversation to a more private space, to a place where our thoughts can breathe.
Have a drink and talk around it
Chill a bit and discuss it without coming to any conclusions. No need to force anything.
In the end it doesn't matter
After all is said and done, nothing really changes. Life goes on.
In the end we all go home
No matter how far we stray, eventually we'll all return to the same place of origin.
I thought about it for a minute
After some contemplation, I realized that the really important things in life are hard to articulate.
Music's in the kiss we hold
There is music in the tender moments that we share with loved ones.
Clever lines and clever lyrics
The artistry isn't what's important; it's what's put into the artwork that counts.
All boil down to what goes in them
Ultimately, the quality that defines a work of art is the passion and inspiration of its creator.
If they find life then so do we
If a work of art is imbued with vitality and vibrancy, then it infects us with those same qualities.
Yeah, uh-huh, I think we're alive
Music, like love, enables us to truly live, to experience life to its fullest.
Music is a walk outside
When we immerse ourselves in music, we escape the mundane and experience the sublime.
