Venus
Weslee Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean
All this distance between us
I'm from mars you're from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

I don't need a prince on a white horse
I don't need a dude with a white Porsche
You just gotta ride when the going gets tough
You be saying things you can't take back
I retaliate and you hate that
But I hope that we can overcome

This he said she said
Reset or regret
Don't ride this wave or well get seasick
Were somewhere close but not the end yet...
Can you feel it?

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

Always gotta fight what a damn shame
We be going flat, champagne
Waiting for the calm cause I'm over the storm
Why we gotta do it the hard way

Tell me how you feel, don't be blasé
I know the words on the tip of tongue
Not this he said she said
Reset or regret
Don't ride this wave or well get seasick
Were somewhere close but not the end yet...
Can you feel it?

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

Now we've reached the point that we just can't ignore
We both know the end is what were heading for
No way we can go back how we were before
Maybe this is the closest that we can be

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus
We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

All this distance between us
You're from mars I'm from venus




We been deep in our feelings
Saying things we don't mean

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Weslee's song "Venus" appear to be about a relationship between two people from different worlds who are struggling with communication and the distance between them. The repeated line "You're from mars I'm from venus" suggests that they have differing perspectives or approaches to the relationship. They have been "deep in their feelings" and saying things they don't mean, indicating that their emotions are causing them to lash out or say hurtful things in the heat of the moment.


Despite their difficulties, the singer does not need a fairy tale prince or material possessions from their partner. Instead, they want someone who will support them through tough times, even when it means admitting fault and reconciling. The song encourages both parties to reset their communication and approach to the relationship before it becomes too late.


The reference to champagne could allude to a fancy lifestyle or indulgence that they use to distract themselves from their problems. The repeated question "Can you feel it?" suggests that the singer wants to know if their partner feels the same way about their relationship as they do. The song ends on a somewhat resigned note, with the acknowledgement that they may not be able to overcome their differences but that this may be as close as they can get.
