Can I
Alina Baraz feat. Galimatias Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I told you I could give you life
Would you leave the boundaries of your mind?
I bet you never even knew
That there's a universe inside of you

Can I take your pain and make it go away
Would you let me be your getaway
No no no no, I bet you never knew
There's a universe inside of you

Can I
Undress you
You, you
Undress you
You, you

Undress you
You, you
Undress you
You, you

Undress you.

There's a universe inside of you.

If I color you with all my thoughts
Would you lose your fears of being lost
I bet you never even knew
I see the universe inside of you

Can I make you feel okay
Would you let me take you to a higher place
No no no no, I bet you never knew
There's a universe inside of you

Can I
Undress you
You, you
Undress you
You, you
Undress you
You, you
Undress you




You, you
Undress you.

Overall Meaning

The song "Can I" by Alina Baraz and Galimatias is a sensual and introspective piece that explores the idea of the universe within ourselves. Through the lyrics, the singer invites the listener to embrace their inner world, to open up to the possibilities of feeling alive and connected. The first verse sets the tone by asking a rhetorical question: if the singer offered the listener life, would they be willing to break free from the boundaries of their mind- a metaphor for the limitations we set for ourselves? By proposing this idea, the singer suggests that there is something greater, something more significant within each of us that is waiting to be discovered. The chorus reinforces this idea, emphasizing that if the listener allows the singer to undress them, they will experience a profound connection with their inner universe. The second verse continues this theme by asking if the singer can "color" the listener with their thoughts, suggesting that there is a synergy between the two that can help dispel the fear of being lost. Ultimately, the song is a call to touch the deepest aspects of ourselves, to break free from barriers and embrace our true nature.

I cried listening to this once.
This song is a fantasy
A deluxe piece of sound
A ministrey of sound
As I hear the short snares click on 
my life goes on
an open boundary capable of reaching the highest points
Too good to describe
Nostalgic
Happy
Chill
Deluxe.
