Wolves
Selena Gomez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One to love and one to lose
Sweet divine, a heavy truth
Water or wine, don't make me choose
I wanna feel the way that we did that summer night, night
Drunk on a feeling, alone with the stars in the sky
I've been running through the jungle
I've been running with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you
I've been down the darkest alleys
Saw the dark side of the moon
To get to you, to get to you
I've looked for love in every stranger
Took too much to ease the anger
All for you, yeah, all for you
I've been running through the jungle
I've been crying with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you, to get to you
Your fingertips trace my skin
To places I have never been
Blindly, I am following
Break down these walls and come on in
I wanna feel the way that we did that summer night, night
Drunk on a feeling, alone with the stars in the sky
I've been running through the jungle
I've been running with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you
I've been down the darkest alleys
Saw the dark side of the moon
To get to you, to get to you
I've looked for love in every stranger
Took too much to ease the anger
All for you, yeah, all for you
I've been running through the jungle
I've been crying with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you, to get to you
I've been running through the jungle
I've been running with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you
I've been down the darkest alleys
Saw the dark side of the moon
To get to you, to get to you
I've looked for love in every stranger
Took too much to ease the anger
All for you, yeah, all for you
I've been running through the jungle
I've been crying with the wolves
To get to you, to get to you, to get to you
Selena Gomez’s song “Wolves” is about the lengths someone will go to be with the person they love. The heavy blue in the eyes mentioned in the lyrics could represent a deep sadness or heaviness that one feels when they are separated from the person they love. The line “Water or wine, don’t make me choose” could mean that the person is willing to give up anything for their love, even the choice between what might be considered basic needs, such as water and wine. The person wants to feel the way they did during a specific summer night, a feeling of being alive, drunk on love and surrounded by the stars.
The lyrics also describe the person as running through the jungle and with the wolves to get to the person they love. This could symbolize the struggles and difficulties they have encountered while searching for their love, and the lengths they have gone to finally be with them. The line "took too much to ease the anger" might refer to the person engaging in self-destructive behavior in order to deal with the pain of separation from their love.
The repeated "to get to you" in the chorus drives home the point of the song: the person will do anything to be with the one they love, even if it means running through the jungle and crying with the wolves.

This song is about her battle with lupus. Lupus in Latin means “wolf” and it’s often a symbol for lupus. Hence her running through the darkness with wolves. In the end you see her walking on water in this beautiful purple dress (purple is the lupus awareness ribbon color). She fights through lupus to accomplish everything she does. It’s so powerful and as a fellow lupus sister thank you.
