I Really Like You
Anthem Lights Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I really wanna stop
But I just gotta taste for it
I feel like I could fly with
The ball on the moon
So honey hold my hand you like
Making me wait for it
I feel I could die walking up to the room
Oh yeah

Late night watching television
But how we get in this position?
It's way too soon, I know this isn't love
But I need to tell you something

I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?
I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

Oh, did I say too much? I'm so in my head
When we're out of touch
I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

It's like everything you say
Is a sweet revelation
All I wanna do is get into your head
Yeah we could stay alone, you and me
And this temptation
Sipping on your lips, hanging on by thread
Baby

Late night watching television
But how we get in this position?
It's way too soon, I know this isn't love
But I need to tell you something

I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?
I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

Oh, did I say too much? I'm so in my head
When we're out of touch
I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

Who gave you eyes like that?
Said you could keep them
I don't know how to act
The way I should be leaving
I'm running out of time going out of my mind
I need to tell you something
Yeah, I need to tell you something

I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?
I really really really really
Really really like you
And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

Oh, did I say too much? I'm so in my head
When we're out of touch
I really really really really
Really really like you




And I want you, do you want
Me, do you want me, too?

The lyrics of Anthem Lights's song "I Really Like You" convey the excitement and uncertainty of a blossoming romantic relationship. The song starts with the singer expressing their intense desire and attraction towards the other person. They cannot resist the temptation and have a craving to be close to them, as if they could fly to the moon.

During late nights, when nothing much is happening, I find myself watching television

All I wanna do is get into your head
All I desire is to understand your thoughts and emotions


Yeah we could stay alone, you and me, and this temptation
We could choose to be together in seclusion, giving in to this alluring desire


Sipping on your lips, hanging on by thread
Gently kissing your lips, feeling a sense of precariousness and vulnerability


Who gave you eyes like that? Said you could keep them
Who blessed you with such captivating eyes? They must have known you would hold onto them


I don't know how to act the way I should be leaving
I am unsure how to behave as I should be distancing myself from these strong feelings


I'm running out of time, going out of my mind
I am feeling increasingly anxious and overwhelmed as time passes


I need to tell you something
I have an urgent need to confess something to you
