Venus
Yearning for Venus: A Plea for Love's Perfection
Lyrics
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Expressing a call to the goddess Venus, associated with love and beauty.
Venus, if you will
Addressing Venus and expressing a request or desire.
Please send a little girl for me to thrill
Asking Venus to send a special girl to bring excitement and joy.
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
Desiring a girl who craves the singer's kisses and embraces.
A girl with all the charms of you
Describing the ideal girl as having all the charming qualities of Venus.
Venus, make her fair
Asking Venus to make the girl beautiful.
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
Describing the desired girl as lovely, with radiant hair.
And take the brightest stars up in the skies
Requesting Venus to take the brightest stars and place them in the girl's eyes.
And place them in her eyes for me
Symbolizing the girl's eyes as stars, emphasizing their beauty.
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Referring to Venus as the goddess of love.
Surely the things I ask
Expressing confidence that the singer's requests are reasonable.
Can't be too great a task
Suggesting that what is asked of Venus is not too difficult.
Venus, if you do
If Venus grants the request, the singer promises faithfulness.
I promise that I always will be true
Committing to giving the desired girl all the love the singer can offer.
I'll give her all the love I have to give
Expressing a willingness to love the girl indefinitely.
As long as we both shall live
Promising eternal love as long as both individuals live.
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Repeating the singer's belief in the reasonableness of the request.
Surely the things I ask
Restating that the singer's wishes are not overly burdensome.
Can't be too great a task
Confidently asserting that Venus can fulfill the singer's desires.
Venus, if you do
Reiteration of the request for Venus to act.
I promise that I always will be true
Reaffirming the commitment to remain true if Venus grants the request.
I'll give her all the love I have to give
Renewing the promise to give the girl unending love.
As long as we both shall live
Committing to love the girl for the entirety of their lives.
Hey, Venus, oh, Venus
Addressing Venus once again and expressing a hope for wish fulfillment.
Make my wish come true
A final plea for Venus to make the singer's wish come true.
