Lyrics
He's sweeter than juice, he's fresh as a fruit
Describing someone as incredibly pleasant and refreshing, akin to the qualities of fresh juice or fruit.
Such a babe in the woods
Referring to the person as naive or innocent, like someone inexperienced.
No good on his own, won't make it alone
Implies the person struggles when alone and might be reliant on others.
Bet he'd take my name if he could
Suggests that the person is deeply attached or committed and would want a significant relationship with the speaker.
He's easy as pie with nothing inside
Seemingly simple or uncomplicated outwardly, lacking depth.
Still he keeps me up all through the night
Despite being seemingly simple, this person keeps the speaker awake all night, possibly suggesting emotional complexity.
But sugar highs crash fast and suddenly
Highs in the relationship are intense but brief, akin to the sudden crash after a sugar rush.
My baby hangs on

The tip of my tongue

Waiting to ring my bell

Stays close to my lips

When I need a fix
When the speaker needs emotional support, the person knows how to assist.
He knows just how to help

I'm sin on his skin
The speaker represents temptation or something considered forbidden to the person.
I'm breaking him down
Indicates breaking down the person's defenses or resistance.
I leave him breathless, so we do mouth to mouth

So soft to the touch (soft to the touch)
Highlights the person's sensitivity and gentleness.
Thinks that this is love
The person believes the relationship is love.
His head's in the clouds

He's sweeter than juice, he's fresh as a fruit
Repeated verses, emphasizing the cyclic nature of the relationship and its eventual downfall due to its fleeting nature.
Such a babe in the woods
-No good on his own, won't make it alone
-Bet he'd take my name if he could
-He's easy as pie with nothing inside
-Still he keeps me up all through the night
-But sugar highs crash fast and suddenly
-I've lost my taste
-And another sunrise
-Seen through his blue eyes
-One more before I'm gone
-He fell for a really cruel girl
-Shattered by a really cruel world
-My heart collapsed, my love is cracked
-I'll leave him pieces before I go
-I'm sin on his skin
-I'm breaking him down
-I leave him breathless, so we do mouth to mouth
-So soft to the touch (soft to the touch)
-Thinks that this is love
-His head's in the clouds
-He's sweeter than juice, he's fresh as a fruit
-Such a babe in the woods
-No good on his own, won't make it alone
