When the Wrong One Loves You Right
Céline Dion Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't care, what they think
How they feel, or what they say
You're everything, I never knew
I always wanted, baby
I've been warned, so many times
They tell me I've ignored the signs

But nobody knows you like I do
The only one for me is you

I can't stop, can't fight, can't resist it
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-yeah)
I can't run, I can't hide, I can't say no
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh-oh-oh-yeah)
When the wrong one loves you right

Getting tired, of hearing that
You're dangerous, but they won't stop
Until I leave, they won't believe
That being with you won't break my heart
So worried ‘bout, the road ahead
They can't see that, you're my best friend
They never gonna take me away from you
There's nothing they can do

I can't stop, can't fight, can't resist it
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-yeah)
I Can't run, I can't hide, I can't say no
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh-oh-oh-yeah)
When the wrong one loves you right

How can I walk away
When the feeling's so strong
I know you're where I belong
They say I let my heart
Make up my mind
That's why I'll never say goodbye
I'll never say goodbye

(Can't stop, can't fight)
(Can't resist it)
(When the wrong one loves you right)
When the wrong one loves you right

(Can't run)
Can't hide
(Can't hide)
(Can't say no when the wrong one loves you right)
Can't say no when the wrong one loves you right
Loves you right

(Can't stop, can't fight)
(Can't resist it)
(When the wrong one loves you right)
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh oh oh oh, yeah)

When the wrong one
(Can't run, can't hide)
Loves you right
(Can't say no when the wrong one loves you right)
The wrong one loves you right, oh yeah
The wrong one loves you right

(Can't stop, can't fight)
Can't fight
(When the wrong one loves you right)
When the wrong one loves you right, yeah
(Oh oh oh oh, yeah)

When the wrong one, loves you right
(Can't run, can't hide)
(Can't say no when the wrong one loves you right)
When the wrong one loves you right
(Oh oh oh oh, yeah)

When the wrong one loves you right
(Can't stop, can't fight)
(Can't resist it)
(When the wrong one loves you right)

When the wrong one loves you right
Oh yeah yeah




(Can't run, can't hide)

Overall Meaning

When it comes to love, sometimes we can't help who we fall for, even if it goes against what others are saying. "When The Wrong One Loves You Right" by Celine Dion is all about the struggle of being in love with someone despite warnings from others that it's not a good idea. The singer acknowledges that they've been warned and advised to stay away, but they can't help the strong feelings they have for this person. To them, the other person is everything they never knew they always wanted. The singer sees something in this person that others are unable to, and they believe that they are the only one who truly knows the person they're in love with.


The chorus captures the internal struggle of being in love with the wrong person. The singer knows deep down that this love may not be the best idea, but they can't help the way they feel. They can't stop, fight, or resist their emotions when the "wrong one" loves them right, and they can't walk away from the intense feelings they have for this person. The song perfectly captures the painful yet exhilarating experience of falling for someone who may not be the best choice.

Their opinion does not matter


How they feel, or what they say
Their feelings and words are insignificant


You're everything, I never knew
You complete me in ways I never imagined


I always wanted, baby
You are the one I've been looking for


I've been warned, so many times
Many people have cautioned me about you


They tell me I've ignored the signs

I understand you better than anyone else


The only one for me is you

# Celine Dion
Time changes and fade
Rivers deep mountain high
Cause me to fall
I left my super love
Because rain tax was inevitable
I needed faith so dat i can pray
With 1 heart
If u asked me to
I will dance and surrender
I drove all nite, all by my self
In ten days wen de wrong 1 loves u right
Dat de way it is ...

After almost 10 years, I finally found this song!!! We used to have a CD with this song, but my mom lent someone it, and we never got it back... My cousin and I used to jam to this song when we were younger every time she would sleep at my house, dancing in the living room!! And now we're almost 22 years old! Good times, and yes, she still comes to my house and I to hers!

Song is a whole vibe❤️🎶

My favorite track from my favorite Celine album! It never gets old. And yes, I'm still bitter 18 years later that it wasn't released to radio, lol.
