Fever
Dua Lipa Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Before you came around, I was doing just fine
Usually, usually, usually, I don't pay no mind
And when it came down, I was looking in your eyes
Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly, I could feel it inside

I've got a fever, so can you check?
Hand on my forehead, kiss my neck
And when you touch me, baby, I turn red
I've got a fever, so can you check?

Peut-être qu'avec du temps, ça partira
Et pourtant, et pourtant, et pourtant, je ne m'y vois pas
Comme un médicament, moi, je suis rien sans toi
Et je sais que, je sais que je perds du temps dans tes bras

I've got a fever, so can you check?
Hand on my forehead, kiss my neck
And when you touch me, baby, I turn red
I've got a fever, so can you check?

Car dans mes yeux, ça se voit
La fièvre dans les yeux, oui ça se voit
Mon cœur se serre, j'ai du feu dans la voix
Le plus souvent, c'est quand je pense à toi

I've got a fever, can you check?
Hand on my forehead, kiss my neck
And when you touch me, baby, I turn red
I've got a fever, so can you check?

Tell me what you wanna do right now
Tell me what you wanna do right now
Tell me what you wanna do right now
'Cause I don't really wanna cool it down
Tell me what you wanna do right now
Tell me what you wanna do right now
Tell me what you wanna do right now
'Cause I don't really wanna cool it down

Car dans mes yeux, ça se voit
La fièvre dans les yeux, oui ça se voit
Mon cœur se serre, j'ai du feu dans la voix
Le plus souvent, c'est quand je pense à toi

Before you came around, I was doing just fine
I was content with my life before you entered it


Usually, usually, usually, I don't pay no mind
Typically, I don't care for many things but now I'm different


And when it came down, I was looking in your eyes
When I was faced with the moment of truth, I found myself staring into your gaze


Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly, I could feel it inside
All of a sudden, a rush of emotions overcame me


I've got a fever, so can you check?
I am feeling a strong attraction to you and I need to know if you feel the same


Hand on my forehead, kiss my neck
Touch me and show me affection to tell me that you're also feeling it

Your touch is making me feel embarrassed and nervous, but also excited


Peut-être qu'avec du temps, ça partira
Maybe with time, my feelings for you will fade


Et pourtant, et pourtant, et pourtant, je ne m'y vois pas
However, I can't imagine my life without you
