Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If we can stop fighting each other
Long enough for us to see that, see that, see that
That we are stronger together than separate babe
You gotta believe that -lieve that -lieve that
But you love me today, don't want me around tomorrow
Every time you change your mind
I follow caught up, all up in your maze and I'm so dizzy babe
Can't keep going back and forth on these waves
I'm getting sea sick, sea sick, sea sick

Like the way we were before and I wanna know
If we can go back to the days when we was close
Sometimes I think I'm so low
Think you don't want me no more
And I've gotta get up off this see-saw

Like an elevator, we go up, and we go down
Down, down, like an elevator
We touch the sky and touch the ground
Ground, ground like an elevator
You're stuck on one while I'm pressing three
Then we end up on the fourth floor
And then we disagree
Then you keep on blamin' me
But I wish that you would see that
I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator

Take you higher, t- t- take you higher
That I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator
Take you higher, t- t- take you higher
That I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator

And I feel like we're speaking two different languages
It's hard to read ya, read ya, read ya
But I know if you at least try to make it half way
I swear that I'll meet ya, meet ya, meet ya
But we can't have a conversation without beefing
Yellin' back and forth for no good reason
I won't let you leave and you keep asking me to stay
One of us better figure out what we want
'Cause I'm getting a headache, headache, headache

Like the way we were before and I wanna know
If we can go back to the days when we was close
Sometimes I think I'm so low
Think you don't want me no more
And I've gotta get up off this see-saw

Like an elevator, we go up, and we go down
Down, down, like an elevator
We touch the sky and touch the ground
Ground, ground like an elevator
You're stuck on one while I'm pressing three
Then we end up on the fourth floor
And then we disagree
Then you keep on blamin' me
But I wish that you would see that
I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator

Oh if there's any man who understands what I'm saying
Won't you help me
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh there's gotta be some women who feeling the way I'm feeling
Say yeah, yeah, yeah
I'll take the blame if it that'll make this go stop
I'll hold for you if we can make it to the top
But we gotta find a way to break down these walls baby
I'm waitin' on you, stop waitin' on me
Damn this elevator!

Like an elevator, we go up, and we go down
Down, down, like an elevator
We touch the sky and touch the ground
Ground, ground like an elevator
You're stuck on one while I'm pressing three
Then we end up on the fourth floor
And then we disagree
Then you keep on blamin' me
But I wish that you would see that
I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator

Take you higher, t- t- take you higher
That I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator
Take you higher, t- t- take you higher




That I'm just trying to elevate you
Like an elevator

Overall Meaning

The song "Elevator" by Pussycat Dolls talks about a dysfunctional relationship where the couple is always fighting and going back and forth, like an elevator going up and down. The chorus uses the metaphor of an elevator to describe how the couple's relationship is inconsistent and unpredictable. The singer pleads for the couple to stop fighting and work together to strengthen their relationship. However, the other person keeps changing their mind and blaming the singer, causing frustration and making it seem like the relationship is going nowhere. Despite this, the singer wants to make things work and take the relationship to higher levels.


Overall, the song portrays the struggle of a relationship where both parties can't seem to communicate effectively and always end up in conflict. The use of the elevator metaphor effectively represents the inconsistency and instability of the relationship, while the bridge emphasizes the importance of working together and finding common ground to solve their issues.


Line by Line Meaning

If we can stop fighting each other
If we can set aside our differences and work together


Long enough for us to see that, see that, see that
For a sufficient amount of time to realize our collective strength


That we are stronger together than separate babe
We can achieve more as a team than as individuals


You gotta believe that -lieve that -lieve that
It's important to have faith in our ability to collaborate


But you love me today, don't want me around tomorrow
You send mixed signals and don't seem to know what you want


Every time you change your mind
Your indecision creates confusion and instability


I follow caught up, all up in your maze and I'm so dizzy babe
I'm lost in your emotional rollercoaster and feeling disoriented


Can't keep going back and forth on these waves
We can't keep oscillating between different emotional states


I'm getting sea sick, sea sick, sea sick
The constant changes and uncertainty are making me feel sick


Like the way we were before and I wanna know
I miss how things used to be between us and I'm curious if we can recapture that feeling


If we can go back to the days when we was close
If we can return to a time when we were more connected


Sometimes I think I'm so low
Sometimes I feel like you don't value me or our relationship


Think you don't want me no more
I'm worried that you've lost interest in me


And I've gotta get up off this see-saw
I can't keep going back and forth between feeling valued and feeling ignored


Like an elevator, we go up, and we go down
Our relationship is like a ride with ups and downs


Down, down, like an elevator
We have our low moments


We touch the sky and touch the ground
We have our high moments as well as our low ones


Ground, ground like an elevator
Our relationship sometimes feels stuck or stagnant


You're stuck on one while I'm pressing three
We have different goals and desires


Then we end up on the fourth floor
We end up in a conflict or disagreement


And then we disagree
We have trouble finding common ground or compromising


Then you keep on blamin' me
You refuse to take responsibility for our problems

I'm trying to make our relationship better and lift you up


Oh if there's any man who understands what I'm saying
If there's anyone who can relate to my feelings and experiences


Won't you help me
Can you offer me some guidance or support?


Say yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me know if you're with me


Oh there's gotta be some women who feeling the way I'm feeling
Surely, there are other women who can relate to my situation


I'll take the blame if it that'll make this go stop
I'm willing to accept blame if it helps us move forward


I'll hold for you if we can make it to the top
I'm willing to support you if we can achieve our goals


But we gotta find a way to break down these walls baby
We need to overcome our emotional barriers and communicate better


I'm waitin' on you, stop waitin' on me
I'm ready to move forward, but I need you to take action too


Damn this elevator!
Our relationship feels like a frustrating and disappointing ride


Take you higher, t- t- take you higher
I want to help you achieve your potential and be at your best


That I'm just trying to elevate you
My intentions are purely positive and supportive
