About This Track

'Soft Side' by BENEE is a 2022 alternative track from the album 'Lychee'. The lyrics court a guarded intimacy, with the speaker asking to see someone’s vulnerable “soft side” only when the timing is right, and lamenting how fame makes them hard to reach. The repeated want to observe, learn and understand the other person’s mind gives the song a yearning, slightly defensive edge, as the fixation shifts from appearance to interiority.

"Soft Side" is a track by BENEE, from the album Lychee, released 4th March 2022. The track is 2:35 long. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 10 articles about BENEE.

Lyrics

Soft Side

I wanna see your soft side
But only when the time's right
And it's a shame you're in the limelight
Makes it hard to catch your eyesight
I wanna see your soft side
But only when the time's right
I wanna know
Everything there is about you
I wanna try
To understand your mind and how you
Weave through the words you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that I have the power to
Open up that spot, it's not that hard to see
I'm keen, you see through me
Don't care 'bout what my friends think
My friends think that I've gone mad
Say I should find someone a little less detached
But I want something that I cannot have
I wanna see your soft side
But only when the time's right
And it's shame you're in the limelight
Makes it hard to catch your eye sight
I wanna see your soft side
But only when the time's right
And it's shame you're in the limelight
Makes it hard to catch your eye sight
I wanna know
Everything there is about you
I wanna try
To understand your mind and how you
Weave through the words you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna
I wanna know
Everything there is about you
I wanna try
To understand your mind and how you
Weave through the words you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna
