I Put A Spell On You
ARI Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I put a spell on you
'Cause you're mine

You better stop the things you do
I ain't lyin', I ain't lyin'

You know I can't stand it
You're runnin' around
You know better, daddy
I can't stand it 'cause you put me down

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
You're mine

You know I love you
I love you
I love you anyhow
And I don't care if you don't want me
I am yours right now (you hear me?)

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
You're mine

You know I can't stand it
You're runnin' around
You know better, daddy
I can't stand it 'cause you put me down
Mm-mm-mmm, mm

I put a spell on you
Because you're mine
You're mine





Put a spell on you
'Cause you're mine

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ARI's "I Put a Spell on You" communicate a sense of possessiveness and desperation. The singer of the song has put a spell on their lover because they feel like they truly belong to them. They can't stand the thought of their partner being with anyone else, and the line "you know better, daddy" reveals the power dynamic in their relationship. While the singer is in love with their partner, they are also deeply hurt by the way they have been treated, which is why they want to put a spell on them. It's as if they're saying, "you hurt me, so now I have to make sure you're mine forever."


The repetition of the line "you're mine" emphasizes this sense of possession and control. The singer wants to make it clear that their partner belongs to them and no one else. The chorus, where the titular line comes in, is especially powerful. The repetition of "I put a spell on you" adds a sense of urgency to the song, while the delivery by the vocalist communicates just how strong their feelings are. The use of the word "spell" adds an element of the supernatural, as if the singer is using magic to keep their partner close.


Overall, "I Put a Spell on You" is a passionate and intense song that conveys the complexity of love and desire. The lyrics explore the dual nature of possessiveness and vulnerability, and how they can be intertwined in a romantic relationship.
