Something About You
Adele vs. Daft Punk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us I want to say
'Cause there's something between us anyway

I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there's something about us I've got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life




I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life

Overall Meaning

These lyrics are from the 2011 collaboration between British singer-songwriter Adele and French electronic music duo Daft Punk, titled "Something About the Fire." The song's lyrics speak of a hesitant desire to express love and affection towards someone, even though the timing may not be perfect or the singer may not be the right match for the person they are addressing.


The first verse suggests that the singer is uncertain about whether or not they have the right to express their emotions towards the person they desire. Despite this, however, there seems to be an undeniable connection that exists between them. The second verse reveals that the singer has a secret that they want to share with the person they love. This implies that there is a level of trust and intimacy between them that makes the singer feel comfortable enough to share their deepest thoughts and feelings.

I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me

My hands, they're strong
But my knees were far too weak
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet

But there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
And the games you play, you would always win, always win

But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cry
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us, I want to say
'Cause there's something between us anyway

When laying with you
I could stay there, close my eyes
Feel you here, forever
You and me together, nothing is better

'Cause there's a side to you that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd say, they were never true, never true
And the games you play, you would always win, always win

But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Let it burn while I cry
'Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life
I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life
