On My Mind
- Ellie Goulding Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh
Oh oh oh, hey

It's a little dirty how the whole thing started
I don't even really know what you intended
Thought that you were cute and you could make me jealous
Poured it down, so I poured it down
Next thing that I know I'm in the hotel with you

You were talking deep like it was mad love to you
You wanted my heart but I just liked your tattoos
Poured it down, so I poured it down

And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand

Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind (but my heart don't understand)
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh, uh huh

I always hear, always hear them talking
Talking 'bout a girl, 'bout a girl with my name
Saying that I hurt you but I still don't get it
You didn't love me, no, not really
Wait, I could have really liked you
I'll bet, I'll bet that's why I keep on thinking 'bout you
It's a shame (shame), you said I was good
So I poured it down, so I poured it down

And now I don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And I know I shouldn't say it
But my heart don't understand

Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind
Why I got you on my mind (but my heart don't understand)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind

You got yourself in a dangerous zone
'Cause we both have the fear, fear of being alone

And I still don't understand it
You don't mess with love, you mess with the truth
And my heart don't understand it, understand it, understand it

Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (but my heart don't understand)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
Why I got you on my mind (but my heart don't understand)
Why I got you on my mind (you think you know somebody)
You think you know somebody (why I got you on my mind)

You think you know somebody
Ah ah ah ah oh ah

Overall Meaning

The song "On My Mind" by Ellie Goulding is about a romantic encounter that started casually but seems to have stirred up emotions that the singer did not expect. The song opens with the singer admitting that she doesn't know how the whole thing started and that she thought the guy was cute and could make her jealous. She pours down her inhibitions and finds herself in a hotel room with the guy, who talks deep and passionately about love. However, she realizes that she only likes his tattoos and doesn't really want to give him her heart. The song then goes into a chorus, where the singer wonders why she can't get the guy out of her head despite her heart not understanding why she wants him.

The second verse of the song is about the singer hearing people talk about her and the guy she was with. They accuse her of hurting him, but she still doesn't understand why he didn't love her. She admits that she could have really liked him and bets that's why she keeps thinking about him. The song ends with a reminder that both the singer and the guy have fears of being alone and that the situation has become a dangerous zone.

Overall, the song "On My Mind" is about a casual encounter that turned into something more emotionally complex. It explores the themes of confusion, insecurities, and the difficulty of letting go of someone who has already left an impact on the heart.

Ellie Goulding is a great singer and a great talent, but she's completed the transformation from exciting fresh singer songwriter to predictable , bland pop corporate puppet. She's so much better than this - sure , she has much more exposure and sales, but I miss the vulnerable , heartfelt Ellie ...

@EkaterinaPorSuerte

I agree with you, but I also hold out hope that the true ellie is going to be present in this new album too.The thing that scares me the most is that in an interview she actually said that for this album to be pop-y was a deliberate decision... I am really not into this mainstream stuff, although I am still buying the ticket for her concert before I can actually listen to the whole album, so all I can do is hope for the best. surely she will try to please the general audience and hardcore goulddiggers.

@MrChEEze640

9y↑59

+New Piano Tutorials Keep in mind this is her breakout single for the new album, and its supposed to be as radio-ready and catchy as it can be. Ellie consistently puts out smart, fresh pop songs and I'm sure her new album will have plenty unique hits.

@JarisGoesAheadPretty1995

9y↑22

I am always for an artist transforming, I always think it's interesting but I do hope Ellie's new album still has that certain feel that the last 2 albums had. I believe that is what kept her fans also. Even if it is very different, I hope I still really enjoy it too cuz I love this song! lol

21-year-old me was so obsessed with this song back when I was in a toxic on-and-off unlabeled relationship. Five years later, I'm married and completely happy. I haven't even thought about this song for years. It's crazy how time changes the music we relate to, even if we still love the old tunes.

Many complaining about her musical transition to this new era, but she said herself this was a major change - sound wise -, she added she was finally working with the producer she wanted (Max Martin) and that this new music was very different but she was loving the new venture and that's what matters after all, so please!!! Ellie hasn't lost her identity (her signature vocals are still very shown), she's just doing like any other artist: refreshing herself in order to show diversify.

There’s Ellie narrative, Ed’s, and somewhere in the middle of “none of our business” land, is the truth. But Ellie’s side of the story is relatable to me: She, like me, met a dude and was there only for a fling, a good time, no strings, and the 2nd party caught feelings. He (Ed) claims she “cheated” on him, and I/Ellie are like “I don’t understand how I could cheat when you weren’t even my boyfriend to begin, middle or end with? Why are you upset? Why should I be?”
