Gonna Love Me
Teyana Taylor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hug me and squeeze me

Sometimes we say things that we really don't mean
We do things in between the lines
We should do more to stand out
I'm sorry if I made you feel less than who you are
A little insecure, oh, you's a shinin' star

I wanna spend my nights with you
My life with you, oh baby, babe
Please wait up for me 'til whenever I get home
I know that you're all alone
Thinkin' 'bout what you're gon' do
I hope that you see it through, ooh, ooh

And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hug me and squeeze me

Sometimes I don't think we really say enough
Why is it so hard to keep in touch?
When we're layin' right next to each other, baby
We shouldn't read into things so much
Overthinkin', understandin'
Don't let a feelin' change it up

I wanna spend my nights with you
My life with you, oh baby, babe
Please wait up for me 'til whenever I get home
I know that I'm all alone
Thinkin' 'bout what I'm gon' do
I hope that I see it through, ooh, ooh, yeah

And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hug me and squeeze me
And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hug me and squeeze me

And oh, you gonna love me, yeah
I know you wanna hold me and squeeze me
Are you gonna love and squeeze me?
And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hug me
Are you gonna hold me
And squeeze me
And oh, you're gonna love me
You're gonna wanna hold me
And squeeze me

I've been a fan since then too. Her personality made it clear she was going places. She wasn't obnoxious like the other kids and was down to earth even in her wealth. I mean she wanted a bike lol.
