I Wanna Know
蔡依林 & Alesso Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Day turns into night, you light up my dark, you light up my dark
You're the one that I see waking up next to me
And I hope it's the same for you
But you play with my mind when you send me these signs
And I see other guys get 'em too
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Where do we go, where do we go
From hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Why are you keeping me on hold
Don't wanna leave this place alone
Is it a yes or is it no (ahwoo)
I wanna know, I wanna know
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Diamonds in your eyes cover your lies, cover your lies
Trust me we can be special tonight, special tonight
You're the one that I see waking up next to me
And I hope it's the same for you
But you play with my mind when you send me these signs
And I see other guys get 'em too
I wanna know, I wanna know
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Where do we go, where do we go
From hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Why are you keeping me on hold
Don't wanna leave this place alone
Is it a yes or is it no (ahwoo)
I wanna know, I wanna know
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
Oh, oh, oh
Trust me, we can be special tonight, special tonight
I wanna know, I wanna know
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
(I want you)
Where do we go, where do we go
From hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
(I want you)
Why are you keeping me on hold
Don't wanna leave this place alone
Is it a yes or is it no (ahwoo)
I wanna know, I wanna know
Hey-ey-ey, hey-ey-ey
The lyrics to "I Wanna Know" describe the singer's infatuation with someone who they see as beautiful and who lights up their life. The singer hopes that this person feels the same, and expresses a desire to take things further by asking where they stand and what their intentions are. However, the subject of their affections seems to send mixed signals, leaving the singer unsure whether to pursue the relationship or move on. Throughout the chorus, the singer repeats the phrase "I wanna know," emphasizing their need for clarity.
The verse that talks about "diamonds in your eyes cover your lies" suggests that the person the singer is interested in has been deceitful or dishonest, but the singer is willing to overlook this and insists that they could still be "special tonight." This sentiment speaks to the idea that even when we know someone is not entirely trustworthy, we can still find ourselves drawn to them on a physical or emotional level.
Overall, the song captures the feeling of uncertainty that often comes with new relationships, particularly when trying to gauge whether the other person is truly interested or just playing games. The singer's repeated insistence on wanting to know where they stand is a universal sentiment, and the catchy melody and upbeat tempo make the song feel both relatable and danceable.

很喜歡這類型的曲風與節奏
讓我想到Rihanna的We Found Love
Jolin真的每次都能帶給華語歌壇驚豔，
她不是跟任何歌手比，每一次都是跟自己挑戰，
就是堅持這種理念才能成功！
哈囉

、小紅帽
真的好喜歡蔡依林❤
非常努力謙虛的藝人
連唱英文都很有辨識度
不論氣音音色唱法咬字
啊!!就是蔡依林❤
LEE Elaine
她的音色真的是靠老天賞飯吃的經典，辨識度超高，不乏唱歌技巧比她好的歌手，但只要是她的歌就算沒有影像（例如電台）一聽也知道是她，應該很多人都有這種經驗，路上聽到電台或是經過哪家商店正在播一首你可能覺得好聽的新歌，但是你聽不出來是誰唱的，要記下副歌歌詞再去網路google的經驗
、小紅帽
可是咬字唱法很有她的特色啊 不關什麼外文系畢業
Eve Ev
她是外文系畢業
Bruno J
臺灣有這麼棒的歌手應該繼續把他捧在國際舞臺的😶😶
Royal
@jaznex xu 所以共產國家就可以決定一切，人民完全沒有任何權利是一件幸福的事?！
Cortez Louis
@jaznex xu 哈哈 幽默喔
李賈爾
jaznex xu 你所谓中共强大的国力 中共一被特朗普掐脖子 中共就翻白眼 特朗普一松手 中共就装逼？🤣🤣🤣
