Watercolor Eyes Lyrics – Lana Del Rey
Watercolor Eyes Lyrics
[Verse 1: Lana Del Rey]
Why you always doing that?
Breaking up with me, then making up
Just to make me mad
[Pre-Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
I think that you taste like rock candy
Sweet like beaches, leave me all sandy
Why do you leave me with watercolor eyes?
Young love don't always last forever
Wild horses can't keep us together
So what if you taste just like heaven?
That don't make it right
Hot summer and cold watermelon
Your love stings like blood and a lemon
Why do you leave me with watercolor eyes?
[Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
Watеrcolor eyes
Watercolor еyes
Watercolor eyes
That don't make it right
[Verse 2: Lana Del Rey]
Why you always doing that?
Playing guitar while I'm sleeping
Acting like a brat
[Pre-Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
I think that you're sweet like rock candy
Warm like beaches that leave me sandy
Why do you leave me with watercolor eyes?
Young love don't always last forever
Wild horses can't keep us together
So what if you taste just like heaven?
That don't make it right
Hot summer and cold watermelon
Your love stings like blood and a lemon
Why do you leave me with watercolor eyes?
[Chorus: Lana Del Rey]
Watercolor eyes
Watercolor eyes
Watercolor eyes
That don't make it right
Watercolor eyes
Watercolor eyes
Watercolor eyes
That don't make it right
[Verse 3: Lana Del Rey]
Why you always doing that?
Breaking up with me, then making up
Just to make me mad
[Outro: Lana Del Rey]
Oh-oh
Hey, hey
Why?
That don't make it right
Watercolor Eyes Lyrics Meaning
[Verse 1]
In this verse, Lana Del Rey expresses frustration towards someone who repeatedly breaks up with her and then tries to make up with her just to provoke her anger. It suggests a cycle of a tumultuous relationship with inconsistent behavior.
[Pre-Chorus]
Lana Del Rey compares the taste of this person to "rock candy," which is sweet and enjoyable. However, she also mentions that they leave her feeling vulnerable and exposed like sandy beaches. The line "Why do you leave me with watercolor eyes?" suggests that this person's actions or the relationship itself make her feel emotionally fragile and sensitive.
[Chorus]
The repetition of the phrase "Watercolor eyes" in the chorus emphasizes the theme of vulnerability and fragility. It implies that Lana Del Rey's emotions are easily washed away like watercolors, suggesting a lack of permanence or stability in the relationship. The line "That don't make it right" suggests that despite the allure and sweetness, the situation or the person's behavior is still problematic.
[Verse 2]
In this verse, Lana Del Rey questions why this person engages in certain actions while she is sleeping, specifically playing guitar. She refers to them as acting like a "brat," indicating their immature behavior or disregard for her feelings.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus repeats the lines from the previous verse, emphasizing the person's sweetness like "rock candy" and the vulnerability they leave her with. The watercolor eyes metaphor is brought up again to highlight the emotional impact of the relationship.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeats the previous chorus, further emphasizing the transitory nature of emotions and the notion that sweetness alone doesn't justify or make things right.
[Verse 3]
The third verse echoes the first verse, expressing frustration at the person's repetitive pattern of breaking up and making up. It suggests a cycle of conflict and reconciliation that leads to further dissatisfaction.
[Outro]
The outro repeats the question "Why?" which may reflect Lana Del Rey's confusion and frustration about the situation. The line "That don't make it right" reinforces the idea that despite any temporary sweetness or allure, the person's actions or the relationship as a whole are still flawed or unhealthy.
Overall, the lyrics of "Watercolor Eyes" convey the singer's frustration, vulnerability, and dissatisfaction in a turbulent relationship. They highlight the conflicting emotions and the realization that certain qualities or moments of sweetness don't make up for the underlying issues in the relationship.
