Aha aha
Aha aha
You know you, me, we are so lonely
You look to me I’ll be there, my only
‘Cause you say you want me
More, more, more
And you say that you need me
It won’t be long and I’ll be holdin’
‘Cause you say you want me
More, more, more
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
One touch of Venus
Mm, yeah yeah
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
I said, yeah yeah
I know we’ll take a ride
We’ll pass the stars and be home tonight
‘Cause you, me, way above the stars (stars)
We ain’t dreamin’
And we’re livin’
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
One touch of Venus
Mm, yeah yeah
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
I said, yeah yeah
Ain’t I got the might
Ain’t I got the right
Aha aha, for a touch of Venus
Aha aha
You me, we ain’t so far from home
You me, we ain’t got far to go
You me, here above the stars
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
One touch of Venus
Mm, yeah yeah
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
One touch of Venus
Mm, yeah yeah
One touch of Venus, c’mon
One touch of Venus, yeah yeah
One touch of Venus
And she’ll receive us
I said, yeah yeah
(Way above the stars) Ain’t I got the right
(Way above the stars) For a touch of Venus
(Way above the stars) Ain’t I got the right
(Way above the stars) For a touch of Venus
Interpreting the Cosmic Romance of “Venus”
Billy Idol’s “Venus” is an evocative ode to a love so powerful it transcends earthly boundaries. The lyrics use cosmic imagery—references to stars, Venus, and a journey beyond the mundane—to symbolize the intensity and escapism found in deep connection. Idol emphasizes unity and belonging, with lines that highlight both longing and fulfillment: “You know you, me, we are so lonely” quickly shifts to assurance, “I’ll be there, my only.” The titular “touch of Venus” serves as a metaphor for love’s transformative and uplifting power, suggesting that intimacy can feel otherworldly, almost divine. The recurring refrain and passionate delivery invite listeners to experience love as an adventure that elevates both partners far above the ordinary.
