[Verse 1] You make me feel like I'm losing my virginity The first time, every time when you're touching me I make you bloom like a flower that you never seen Under the sun, we are one buzzing energy Let's pollinate to create a family tree This evolution with you comes naturally Some call it science (Science), we call it chemistry This is the story of the birds and the bees
[Pre-Chorus] And even when seasons change Our love still stays the same
[Verse 2] I've flown a million miles, just to find a magic seed A white flower with the power to bring life to me You're so exotic, get my whole body fluttering Constantly craving for a taste of your sticky sweet Always on the brink of a heart attack You keep me alive and keep me coming back I see the sun rise in your eyes, your eyes We've got a future full of blue skies, blue skies
[Pre-Chorus] And even when seasons change Our love still stays the same
“Hummingbird Heartbeat” is a song in which Katy sings about her lover, who is so incredible that he makes her heart beat as fast as a hummingbird’s whenever he’s around.
Her fiancé Russell Brand had an impact on Teenage Dream. Some of the tracks were recorded before the singer met the British comedian, but their relationship impacted on several of the later tracks. She said: “There are some songs on the album inspired by love. There’s a song called Hummingbird Heartbeat. He gives me that Hummingbird Heartbeat.”
