Intro

Two, three, four

Verse 1

Because he wanted to take her, over an hour and a half

Through rain and wind, with only one hand on the wheel

With another hand on her thighs, because that's how far he could go

And there's not even wifi here, but every message gets through

Chorus 1

Because he was madly in love with her

And had never done anything like this before

Because he would be back in an hour

Mother's bike out of the shed

He was madly in love with her

Verse 2

Second class, havo-vwo

On my toes through the house to the room

In the middle of the night because maybe it would be my death

And our biggest fear was the father

Hands above the sheets, could talk for nights

For the first time, a girl made me feel completely valued, really

It couldn't be more naive and it couldn't be more adolescent

Chorus 2

I see him cycling down the street

It feels like going back in time

Because I was into her then

And she was into me then

He was madly in love with her

And had never done anything like this before

Because he would be back in an hour

Mother's bike out of the shed

He was madly in love with her

Bridge

With her, only with her

He wanted to take her, back again for an hour and a half

But now all alone with still one hand on the wheel

Chorus 3

Because he was madly in love with her

And had never done anything like this before

Because he would be back in an hour

Never the bike back in the shed

He was madly in love with her

Outro

Now they are never together anymore

His phone keeps ringing

SONG MEANING

Smoorverliefd literally means head-over-heels in love, and Snelle paints that feeling with the carefree colors of teenage romance. Picture a boy pedalling his mother’s bike for an hour and a half through rain and wind, one hand on the handlebars, the other shyly resting on his crush’s knee. There is no Wi-Fi, yet every message lands straight in the heart. Sneaking into bedrooms after midnight, whisper-talking till sunrise, and panicking about the girl’s dad catching them—all the classic thrills of young love race by like streetlights on that late-night ride.

Years later, the singer looks back and realizes how huge those small moments felt: cutting curfew, sharing secrets, promising to be gone “for just an hour.” The romance eventually fades, the phone keeps ringing unanswered, and the bike is never returned to the shed, but the memory remains a sweet time capsule of innocence, recklessness, and first love’s undeniable rush. Snelle’s nostalgic storytelling reminds us how thrilling it was to risk everything for a single kiss and how those memories can still make our hearts pedal faster.
