“Soft Side” is an alternative pop track about wanting to see a different side to someone, and ultimately wanting to get closer to them, but not being able to due to them having a lot of popularity and attention on them. The song is almost obsessive, but portrayed in a sad, needy tone as she wants to...
[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
I wanna know everything that there is about you
I wanna try to understand your mind and how you
Weave through walls you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna—
[Verse]
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that I have the power to

[Chorus]
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
And it's a shame you're in the limelight
Makes it hard to catch your eyesight
[Post-Chorus]
I wanna know everything that there is about you
I wanna try to understand your mind and how you
Weave through walls you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna—
I wanna know everything that there is about you
I wanna try to understand your mind and how you
Weave through walls you hide behind, I wanna try
Baby, I wanna get inside, I wanna—
