The Other Side
6. Jason Derulo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I never thought it would be you
When we were chillin'
Smiling in the photo booth
But we got closer (yeah)
'Til you were eating off my spoon
And coming over
And we would talk all afternoon
Tonight, we'll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Bind your hands all over me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, "We're going all the way"
Tonight, take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the Fourth of July
Just take me to the other side
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know, we ain't friends anymore
If we walk down this road
We'll be lovers for sho'
So tonight, kiss me like it's do or die
And take me to the other side
This could be perfect
But we won't know unless we try (try)
I know you're nervous
So just sit back and let me drive
Tonight, we'll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Bind your hands all over me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, "We're going all the way"
Tonight, take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the fourth of July
Just take me to the other side
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know, we ain't friends anymore
If we walk down this road
We'll be lovers for sho'
So tonight, kiss me like it's do or die
And take me to the other side (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Kiss me like it's do or die
And take me to the other side
Tonight, we'll just get drunk
Disturb the peace
Let your love crash into me
And then you bite your lip
Whisper and say, "We're going all the way"
Tonight, take me to the other side
Sparks fly like the fourth of July
Just take me to the other side
I see that sexy look in your eyes
And I know, we ain't friends anymore
If we walk down this road
We'll be lovers for sho'
So tonight (So tonight) kiss me like it's do or die
And take me to the other side
(Whoa) take me to the other side
(Whoa) and take me to the other side
(Whoa) kiss me like it's do or die
(Whoa) and take me to the other side (Jason Derulo)
In "The Other Side," Jason Derulo tells a story about falling in love with a friend and wanting to take the relationship to the next level. The song starts with Derulo reminiscing their friendship, and he never thought that they would end up together. He adds that they got to know each other so well that they became inseparable. Derulo then explains that it's time to cross the friendship line and become lovers.
The chorus encapsulates the entire theme of the song. Derulo wants to explore the other side of their relationship, which will be more intimate and passionate. He sings that they won't be friends anymore if they go down this road, but it's worth it because the sparks are already flying.
The second verse picks up the pace, and Derulo encourages his partner to take a leap of faith, telling them that he knows that they're nervous but that he'll take the lead. The bridge sets the stage for the climax, building up the tension before the final chorus. The song ends with Derulo urging his partner to kiss him like it's do or die, signifying a level of intensity and passion.
