Something in the Air
5ive Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Reminisce girl on the way that it was
Everything that I had was yours
Give me kiss girl like you used to do
I'm gonna take my time with you
Make it feel like what you felt before
Now you're back 'cause you want some more
I can't help but feel the way I do
And girl I got this to say to you

They're runnin' around my mind got thoughts of you and me all the time
Well baby you've got to let me know what I gotta do
'Cause if you'd only tell me
Maybe you could help me
Try to understand how to get with you

All the boys on the right give it up this time
All the girls on the left give it up this time
'Cause all the boys on the right want to check you out
And all the girls on the left want to show you how

Now it's on girl, got the best of you
Now I want to take the rest of you
I don't want to take it slow with you
I want to rock with you I want to roll
If you want girl we can take a ride
I'll be fine with you by my side
I can't help but feel the way I do
So I've got this to say to you

They're runnin' around my mind got thoughts of you and me all the time
Well baby you've got to let me know what I gotta do
'Cause if you'd only tell me
Maybe you could help me
Try to understand how to get with you

All the boys on the right give it up this time
All the girls on the left give it up this time
'Cause all the boys on the right want to check you out
And all the girls on the left want to show you how

Give me kisses, lay it on, rock it to the break of dawn
I can do it nice and soft and give you everything you want
'Cause what you need's what I got don't forget it
Baby I'm a-waiting right here come and get it
Kissin' necks, I'll perplex, any way you want to flex
We should get together just to check out if our love connects
Tell me now are you feelin' how I'm feelin'
I got a freaky feelin' deep inside this could be real and check it out

'Cause if you'd only tell me
Maybe you could help me
Try to understand how to get with you

All the boys on the right give it up this time
All the girls on the left give it up this time
'Cause all the boys on the right want to check you out
And all the girls on the left want to show you how

All the boys on the right give it up this time
All the girls on the left give it up this time
'Cause all the boys on the right want to check you out
And all the girls on the left want to show you how





There's something in the air to end

Overall Meaning

"Something in the Air" by 5ive tells the story of a man who wants to reconnect with a former lover. He reminisces about their past together and wants to make new memories. The lyrics are romantic in nature and express his desire to be with her physically and emotionally. He begs her to communicate with him about her desires and even promises to fulfill her needs in various ways. The chorus refers to a social gathering where the boys and girls are separated, but all eyes are on the woman he desires. The song conveys an upbeat, fun-loving attitude, and the upbeat tempo helps to lighten the mood of the song.


One interesting fact about this song is that it was written by English boy band, Blue. The song was offered to 5ive as a single, but they later turned it down. Ultimately, the song was released as Blue's first single, but it did not reach the charts. Another fascinating fact is the song was released as a single just one week after 9/11.

They should've released this song as a single back then. I could see it on top of charts in UK and Europe. It has nice vibe in it.
