Naive Lyrics

I'm not saying it was your fault
Although you could have done more

Oh, you're so naïve, yet so

How could this be done
By such a smiling sweetheart?
Oh, and your sweet and pretty face
In such an ugly way
Something so beautiful
Oh, that every time I look inside

I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
Well, she's still out to get me

And I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
She's still out to get me

I may say it was your fault
Because I know you could have done more

Oh, you're so naïve, yet so

How could this be done
By such a smiling sweetheart?
Oh, and your sweet and pretty face
In such an ugly way something so beautiful
Oh, that every time I look inside

I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
Well, she's still out to get me

And I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
She's still out to get me

Ooh

So how could this be done
By such a smiling sweetheart?

Oh, you're so naïve, yet so

It's such an ugly thing
For someone so beautiful
I'll die every time you're on his side

I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
Well, she's still out to get me

And I know she knows that I'm not fond of asking
True or false, it may be
She's still out to get me

Just don't let me down
So just don't let me down
Hold on to your kite
Just don't let me down
Just don't let me down
Hold on to your kite
Just don't let me down, oh
Just don't let me down
Hold on to this kite
Just don't let me down
Just don't let me down

What is the Meaning of Naive?

Oh, the tangled webs of love and deceit! This tune is a cheeky lament about a lover's cunning nature. Our singer is grappling with the paradox of his beloved - a sweetheart with an angelic face who's up to no good. He’s not one to ask questions, but he knows she’s playing games. There’s an element of self-blame too, as he believes he could’ve done more to prevent this mess. The repeated plea "don't let me down" reveals his vulnerability and hope for redemption in their relationship. It's like flying a kite - exhilarating when it soars, crushing when it crashes. Ah, such is the rollercoaster of love!
