Gimmie Love
Carly Rae Jepsen/Musicfire.in Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Drove by your place and stopped again tonight
I know I said that I'm too scared to try
But I still think about you, think about you
And I can't lie
I like the feeling, how you make me shy
I share my secrets and I will not hide
I know that one could be two, one could be two
Gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie touch
'Cause I want what I want, do you think that I want too much?
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Fall into me
Gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie please
'Cause I want what I want, boy you, it's what I need
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Eyes so bright
You got a hold of me the whole damn night
I toss and turn but still I can't sleep right
I should've asked you to stay, begged you to stay
But when I get right next to you
I hear this heart beat break in two
I feel the earthquake in the room and so I pray
Fall into me and then
Gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie touch
'Cause I want what I want, do you think that I want too much?
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Fall into me
Gimmie love (give love)
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie please
'Cause I want what I want, boy you, it's what I need
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
(Gimmie love)
It's the way we are together (oh oh oh)
Wanna feel like this forever, forever (oh oh oh)
It's the way we are together (oh oh oh)
And I never thought I'd ever say forever
Gimmie love (gimmie love)
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie touch (oh touch me)
'Cause I want what I want, do you think that I want too much? (too much)
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love (gimmie love, gimmie love)
Fall into me
Gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie please
'Cause I want what I want, boy you, it's what I need
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love

Worlds fly by
Time goes by so fast
Drove by your place and stopped again tonight
Visiting you is fixed in my mind, and we have a history together
I know I said that I'm too scared to try
I have anxiety about being vulnerable and starting this again
But I still think about you, think about you
You stay on my mind
And I can't lie
I am being honest
I like the feeling, how you make me shy
Being around you makes me feel shy and vulnerable but I actually like it
I share my secrets and I will not hide
I'm open and honest with you
I know that one could be two, one could be two
We could be more than just acquaintances with this history we share
Gimmie love
I want your love and attention
Gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love, gimmie love
Repeated request for love and attention
Gimmie touch
I want physical intimacy with you
'Cause I want what I want, do you think that I want too much?
I'm questioning if my wants are too demanding or unreasonable
Fall into me
Let your guard down and come to me
Eyes so bright
Your eyes are shining and captivating
You got a hold of me the whole damn night
You had my attention all night
I toss and turn but still I can't sleep right
You have left a lasting impression on me, and I can't get you out of my mind
I should've asked you to stay, begged you to stay
I regret not asking you to stay with me longer
But when I get right next to you
Being close to you has a profound effect on me
I hear this heart beat break in two
My heart aches when I think about being apart from you
I feel the earthquake in the room and so I pray
The connection between us is so strong that it feels like an earthquake and I am praying for it to last
It's the way we are together (oh oh oh)
Our connection is unique and special
Wanna feel like this forever, forever (oh oh oh)
I want to keep this feeling and connection going on for eternity
And I never thought I'd ever say forever
I never thought I would find someone I would want to be with forever
Gimmie please
Please give me what I want
'Cause I want what I want, boy you, it's what I need
I know there is a difference between what I want and what I need, but in this case, what I want is also what I need

Slept in all my clothes like I didn't care
Hopped into a cab, take me anywhere

Freaked out dropped my phone in the pool again
Checked out of my room hit the ATM
Let's hang out if you're down to get down tonight
'cause it's always a good time
Good morning and good night
I wake up at twilight
It's gonna be alright
We don't even have to try
It's always a good time

Something about being a kid during the late 2000’s and early 2010’s feels so magical. Going to the pool on a hot summer day, sitting in the backseat of a car listening to pop music on the radio, watching cartoons during the weekend, playing mobile games on parent’s phone, and just plain having fun. Doing kid stuff without a care in the world. It was just an amazing experience.
