Mona Lisa
Capturing the Enigmatic Essence: Decoding Louis Berry's 'Mona Lisa'
Lyrics
Don't know what to say tonight
Expressing uncertainty or hesitation about what to say tonight.
Don't know if I'll say it right
Uncertain if the speaker will express himself correctly.
Kinda girl that don't like conversation
Describing a girl who dislikes conversation or is reserved.
And I just wanna see her go
Expressing a desire to see the girl leave or move on.
Dancing by the radio
Imagining the girl dancing by the radio.
Going over all my expectations
Reflecting on personal expectations and thoughts.
Oh she's a wild one
Describing the girl as wild and unpredictable.
And even now my heart
Indicating a change in the speaker's heart due to the girl.
Don't beat the same
Noting that the speaker's heart doesn't beat the same anymore.
Yeah she's a right one
Referring to the girl as the right one, despite breaking rules.
Breaking every rule I ever made
Acknowledging that the girl breaks the speaker's rules.
So put the light on the meter
Asking to turn on the light on the meter, suggesting readiness.
I got time my Mona Lisa
Claiming time with the girl, addressing her as Mona Lisa.
Hang on every prayer tonight
Encouraging attention to every prayer tonight.
And lie beneath your bedroom eyes
Describing the act of lying beneath the girl's bedroom eyes.
So put the light on the meter
Repeating the request to turn on the light on the meter.
I got time my Mona Lisa
Reiterating the speaker's claim to time with Mona Lisa.
Hang on every prayer tonight
Emphasizing attention to every prayer tonight.
And lie beneath your bedroom eyes
Repeating the imagery of lying beneath the girl's bedroom eyes.
I don't even know her name
Expressing a lack of knowledge about the girl's name.
I can only see her face
Highlighting the ability to see the girl's face despite anonymity.
But she's a lover only if I'm paying
Suggesting that the girl is only a lover when the speaker pays.
And when she putting on that light
Describing a moment when the girl turns on a light.
I know I'm alone tonight
Acknowledging the speaker's loneliness in that moment.
But she can fool me
Admitting vulnerability to being fooled by the girl.
Twice on this occasion
Stating the girl can fool the speaker twice on this occasion.
Oh she's a wild one
Reiterating the description of the girl as wild and unpredictable.
And even now my heart
Repeating the change in the speaker's heart due to the girl.
Don't beat the same
Reaffirming that the heart doesn't beat the same anymore.
Yeah she's a right one
Repeating the label of the girl as the right one despite rule-breaking.
Breaking every rule I ever made
Reiterating the acknowledgment of the girl breaking rules.
So put the light on the meter
Repeating the request to turn on the light on the meter.
I got time my Mona Lisa
Reiterating the speaker's claim to time with Mona Lisa.
Hang on every prayer tonight
Emphasizing attention to every prayer tonight.
And lie beneath your bedroom eyes
Reiterating the imagery of lying beneath the girl's bedroom eyes.
So put the light on the meter

Hang on every prayer tonight
Emphasizing attention to every prayer tonight.
And lie beneath your bedroom eyes
