Flora
Vera Vinter Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Medan jag står som en idiot
Och fattar inget alls
Regnet faller ned
Bara för du vill
Å Flora, Flora, Flora
Låt det falla lite till
Flora du som vet
Du som känner allt
Kallar våren åter och strör blomster överallt
Ska jag stanna kvar
Eller vända om
Å Flora Flora Flora
Kom hit, kom nu, kom med en gång
Ba ba bam ba...
Mina blommor växer bättre här
Fastän allting annat gått isär
Och fönstren ser åt ett annat håll
Mormors ros och kaprifol
Pelargon och blå viol
Jag tror jag stannar kvar för alltid här
Ba ba bam ba...
Flora vet, Flora känner allt
The lyrics of Vera Vinter's song Flora talk about the connection that the singer has with Flora, who seems to know everything and understand everything that is happening around her. As the rain falls down, the singer feels lost, while Flora seems to simply know what to do. Flora is the symbol of spring, and her arrival marks the beginning of something new and beautiful. The singer questions her place in the world, wondering whether to stay or to leave. The beauty of the flowers that Flora brings is juxtaposed with the singer's feeling of being lost and alone.
The song is filled with metaphors and imagery that underscore the overarching theme of renewal and hope. The singer compares herself to an "idiot" and contrasts her confusion with Flora's knowledge. The rain is a symbol of cleansing and renewal, while the flowers that Flora brings symbolize growth and new beginnings. The memories of the flowers that have grown in the singer's home also represent a sense of belonging and connection to the past. Ultimately, the song is about finding peace in one's surroundings and understanding that there is always something new to discover.
