"honeybee" lyrics

"honeybee"

So I guess that it's true
Time can heal even the worst of wounds
And the clichés I knew
Seemed so commonplace when I saw you
Let's just walk in the dark
Hop the fence in the park
Baby boy, honeybee
God, I love the way you look at me

And it's too hard to describe this
In a way that feels honest
But even when I'm quiet
I love you, baby, I promise
And I hope I never see what your face looks like going
A face I swear that I could spend my whole life knowing
Here's to hoping

Pick me up, walk me home
Man, it feels like God threw me a bone
Sticky sweet, tangerine
Would you sit and keep me company?
In the dark, I'm not scared
I just reach and you're right there
Shooting stars, racing cars
Everything I own just feels like ours

It's too hard to describe this
In a way that feels honest
But even when I'm quiet
I love you, baby, I promise
And I hope I never see what your face looks like going
A face I swear that I could spend my whole life knowing
Here's to hoping

I hope I never see what your face looks like going
A face I swear that I could spend my whole life knowing
Here's to hoping

It's too hard to describe this
In a way that feels honest
But even when I'm quiet
I promise
And I hope I never see what your face looks like going
A face I swear that I could spend my whole life knowing
Here's to hoping


Writer(s): Olivia Rodrigo
According to Olivia Rodrigo, "Honeybee" was her first attempt at writing a classic love song. She said during her interview with Audacy Music inside the Rockstar Suite at Hard Rock Hotel New York on the 26th of May, 2026, "It sort of reminds me of a song that people would play at their weddings hopefully. And it was the first time I've written something that is just like pure romantic love, joyful vibes and I think that was a fun creative challenge for me as a songwriter to do something like that."
Olivia Rodrigo teased this song on TikTok one day prior to its release. She posted a video with the lyrics "Everything I own just feels like ours" which looked like being embroidered on a heart-shaped piece of cloth.
Conan Gray is featured on the backing vocals alongside Lily Elise.
