Lyrics
(I met this guy)
I encountered this person
Boy you feel, boy you feel
Expressing the sensation or emotion the person gives
Like lavender, like lavender
Comparing the feeling to the scent of lavender
Is this as real, is this as real
Questioning the reality or authenticity of the experience
As lavender, as lavender
Continuing the comparison to the calming essence of lavender
Boy you feel, boy you feel
Reiteration of the person's effect or aura
Like lavender, like lavender
Emphasizing the comparison to the soothing quality of lavender
Is this as real, is this as real
Raising doubts about the authenticity of the experience
As lavender, as lavender
Reiterating the comparison to the calming nature of lavender
As lavender
Affirming the comparison to lavender
(It wasn't a long time ago that I met this guy)
Reflecting on the recent encounter with the person
Lavender
Reiteration of the comparison to lavender
(And everything he did was lavender
Describing the person's pervasive connection to lavender
He'd bathe in it)
Highlighting the person's immersion in lavender, even in bathing
Boy you feel (Boy you feel)
Repeating the impact or sensation the person evokes
Boy you feel (Boy you feel)
-(His cologne was made of it
Detailing the person's cologne and overall lavender scent
Every part of him smelt like lavender)
-Is this as real (If this is real)
Questioning the reality of the experience and reaffirming the lavender comparison
Is this as real (If this is real like)
-As lavender (Like life in lavender)
-As lavender (His clothes)
Extending the lavender comparison to the person's belongings and living space
Like lavender (His apartment)
-(Boy you're my lavender)
Declaring the person as the speaker's metaphorical lavender
Like lavender
Reiterating the pervasive lavender scent on every part of the person
As lavender (Every part of him)
-As lavender (Smelt like lavender)
-Please don't try to forget me (Please don't try 'cause)
Expressing a plea not to be forgotten and the emotional impact of separation
Life without you, upsetting (is so upsetting)
-I can feel your vibrations
Sensory imagery of feeling vibrations and exhaling purple smoke
Purple smoke exhalation
-Boy you feel
Repeating the comparison of the person to lavender
Like lavender (Please don't try)
-Oh, lavender
Affirming the person's role as the speaker's lavender
Like lavender (Without you)
-Oh, you're my lavender
-Is this as real (Please don't try to)
Questioning the reality of the experience and reiterating the lavender comparison
Is this as real (Life without you)
-If this is real as lavender
-As lavender (I can feel your vibrations)
Sensing the person's vibrations and exhaling purple smoke
As lavender (Exhalation)
-Is this as real, is this as real
Repeating the questioning of the experience's reality and affirming its authenticity
This is real
-(And every part of him smelt like lavender)
Recalling the pervasive lavender scent on every part of the person
