Eat You Up
BoA보아 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I first saw you I knew nothing's like it used to be
Boy, you have got to be the finest thing in history
The way I feel inside is just so hard to understand
You feed my appetite in ways I can't explain

I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love

If you move any closer, boy, there is no guarantee
What I will do to you I fear it and it's scaring me
Like I've become some kind of demon in the night
You look so tasty, I could eat you up alive

I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love

I'll eat you up, your love, your love
I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love

Can't stop thinking 'bout the things I wanna do to you
If you move any closer you'd be asking for it too
I want your love, I need your touch
So much I think I'm in love

I'll eat you up, your love, your love
Woah, I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love

I wanna take you to my room
I'll eat you up
I wanna take you to my room
Woah I'll eat you up,
Woah, so yum yum
Woah, can't get enough,
Woah, oh oh, I think I'm in love

I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up

I'll eat you up




I'll eat you up
I'll eat you up

I honestly don't understand why "Eat you up" didn't make it in the USA.
The song is catchy, the video is cool, BoA's dancing abilities are
awesome!! I think it's because BoA doesn't fit the Mainstream American
Pop Music which consists of being overly sexy and provocative. BoA
doesn't show any skin, she only shows dancing skills and TALENT. that's
why she didnt make it in the USA. Most fans nowadays don't look at
talent. they look at looks and sexyness. silly. BoA is a dance prodigy
and she should have deserved to be popular in USA and all around the
world.
