Venus' Romantic Quest: A Plea to the Goddess of Love
Lyrics
Hey Venus oh Venus
Expressing a greeting or calling out to the mythical figure Venus, associated with love and beauty.
Venus if you will
Asking Venus for a favor or intervention.
Please send a little girl for me to thrill
Requesting Venus to send a special girl who will excite and captivate.
A girl who wants my kisses and my arms
Describing the desired girl as someone who desires the singer's kisses and embraces.
A girl with all the charms of you
Desiring a girl with qualities similar to Venus, charming and captivating.
Venus make her fair
Asking Venus to make the girl beautiful.
A lovely girl with sunlight in her hair
Desiring a girl with lovely features, specifically sunlight in her hair.
And take the brightest stars up in the sky
Asking Venus to take the brightest stars and place them in the girl's eyes, symbolizing beauty.
And place them in her eyes for me
Extending the metaphor of stars in the girl's eyes to convey her attractiveness.
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Acknowledging Venus as the goddess of love.
Surely the things I ask
Expressing confidence that the requests made are not too challenging for Venus.
Can't be too great a task
Reinforcing the belief that Venus can fulfill the singer's desires.
Venus, if you do
If Venus grants the request, the singer promises faithfulness.
I promise that I always will be true
Committing to loyalty and truthfulness if Venus helps fulfill the singer's desires.
I'll give her all the love I have to give
Pledging to give the special girl all the love the singer possesses.
As long as we both shall live.
Committing to love the girl for the duration of their lives.
Venus, goddess of love that you are
Repeating acknowledgment of Venus as the goddess of love.
Surely the things I ask
Reiterating the belief that the requests made are reasonable for Venus.
Can't be too great a task
Emphasizing the perceived simplicity of the tasks asked of Venus.
Venus, if you do
Renewing the promise of fidelity if Venus intervenes.
I promise that I always will be true
Reiterating the commitment to be true if Venus answers the request.
I'll give her all the love I have to give
Repeating the pledge to give the desired girl the singer's love.
As long as we both shall live.
Renewing the commitment to love the girl for the entirety of their lives.
Hey Venus oh Venus
Closing with a repetition of the initial greeting or call to Venus.
Make my wish come true
Concluding the plea by expressing a desire for the wish to be granted.
