Cadillac Song
Ariana Grande Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinkin' 'bout the day that I first saw you
Nothin' compares to what we had
And baby that won't change
I want you babe
I still want you babe
I still want you
Worried 'bout not a thing
Back in the day when things were easier than the breeze
Who knew that kiss was the last one
I never thought we would change
Baby I'm missing you
Oh we shoulda been forever but fell apart
Might have separated but you took my heart
Always knew I wasn't really over us
And sometimes I catch myself
Ridin' round in my Cadillac
Thinkin' 'bout the day that I first saw you
Nothin' compares to what we had
And baby that won't change
I want you babe
I still want you babe
I still want you
You yea
Memories last forever
So how could I just forget
Made everything from nothin' 'cause time was all we spent
Oh we shoulda been forever but fell apart
Might have separated but you took my heart
Always knew I wasn't really over us
And sometimes I catch myself
Ridin' round in my Cadillac
Thinkin' bout the day that I first saw you
Nothin' compares to what we had
And baby that won't change
I want you babe
I still want you babe
I still want you
You, yea
Oh baby, oh baby
The lyrics to Ariana Grande's song Cadillac Song are about nostalgia and heartbreak. The singer, presumably Ariana herself, is reminiscing about a past love that she still wants. The first verse describes her driving around in her Cadillac, thinking about the day she first saw her lover. She then says that nothing can compare to what they had, and that she still wants them. The second verse talks about how carefree their summer days together were, but they never thought they would change. The kiss they shared was the last one, and now the singer is missing their lover. She knows they should have been forever, but they fell apart. Even though they separated, he took her heart and she wasn't really over their relationship. Throughout the song, the singer is constantly thinking about their past relationship and missing it, despite the fact that it's over.

Ridin' round in my Cadillac
I am driving around in my car, thinking about you
Thinkin' 'bout the day that I first saw you

I still want you babe
Even after all this time, I still want you in my life
Summer days with my honey

I had no idea that the last time we kissed would be our final one

I never imagined that our relationship would come to an end
Baby I'm missing you
I am longing for you, my love
Oh we shoulda been forever but fell apart
We were meant to be together forever, but things didn't work out
Might have separated but you took my heart
Although we are not together, you still have my heart and I think of you often
Always knew I wasn't really over us
I never truly moved on from our relationship
And sometimes I catch myself
Occasionally, I find myself thinking about you and our past together
Memories last forever
The memories of our time together will stay with me forever
So how could I just forget
It's impossible for me to forget about you and our relationship
Made everything from nothin' 'cause time was all we spent
We didn't have much, but we made the most of our time together
You, yea
You, my love
Oh baby, oh baby
Expressing my love and longing for you
