Carly Rae Jepsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wonder, wonder how I do
How's the weather, am I better?
Better now that there's no you?
Drink tequila for me babe
Let it hit you cool and hot
Let your feelings be revealing
That you can't forget me
Not a flower on the wall
I am growing ten feet, ten feet tall
In your head and I won't stop
Until you forget me, get me not
In your fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
Fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
This emotion, I feel it
This emotion, you feel it
All that we could do with this emotion
Paint a picture for me, boy
Where the sky's forever blue
Tell me there is nothing I can't have and nothing you won't do
Toss and turn without me, boy
Let it hit you cold and hot
All my kisses, say you'll miss it
And you can forget me
Not a flower on the wall
I am growing ten feet, ten feet tall
In your head and I won't stop
Until you forget me, get me not
In your fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
Fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
This emotion, I feel it
This emotion, you feel it
All that we could do with this emotion
What if I turn the lights right down?
I feel it
What if I turn the lights right down?
You feel it
You and me in the dark right now
I feel it
In your fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
Fantasy, dream about me
And all that we could do with this emotion
This emotion, I feel it (what if I turn the lights right down?)
This emotion, you feel it
All that we could do with this emotion
In this song, Carly Rae Jepsen taunts an ex-lover who can't seem to forget her. She urges him to drink tequila and let his feelings be revealed, but also invites him to live in his fantasy where he can dream about her and all that they could do with their emotions. She challenges him to forget her, singing, "Not a flower on the wall, I am growing ten feet, ten feet tall, in your head and I won't stop until you forget me, get me not."
The chorus is a plea for the ex-lover to dream with her, and to indulge in their shared emotions. She tells him, "In your fantasy, dream about me, and all that we could do with this emotion. This emotion, I feel it, this emotion, you feel it, all that we could do with this emotion." Carly uses the idea of shared emotions to entice her ex-lover, suggesting that their feelings for each other could lead to an exciting and passionate future if only he was willing to forget their past.

Be tormented by me babe
I want you to suffer because of me
Wonder, wonder how I do
Do you think about me as much as I think about you?
How's the weather, am I better?
Are you doing worse now that we're apart?
Better now that there's no you?
I'm doing better now that you're out of my life
Drink tequila for me babe
Drink tequila and think about me
Let it hit you cool and hot
Let the tequila make you feel both cool and hot
Let your feelings be revealing
Allow yourself to be open and honest about how you feel
That you can't forget me
Acknowledge that you can't forget about me
Not a flower on the wall
I won't just blend in, I'll stand out to you
I am growing ten feet, ten feet tall
In your mind, I'm becoming larger and more significant
In your head and I won't stop
I'll continue to occupy your thoughts
Until you forget me, get me not
I'll stay on your mind until you can't remember me anymore
In your fantasy, dream about me
Imagine me in your dreams and fantasies
And all that we could do with this emotion
Think about all the possibilities that could come from our emotions
This emotion, I feel it
I feel this strong emotion towards you
This emotion, you feel it
You're feeling the same emotion towards me
Paint a picture for me, boy
Tell me what I want to hear, make me a pretty picture
Where the sky's forever blue
Where everything is perfect and happy
Tell me there is nothing I can't have and nothing you won't do
Promise me anything I want and that you'll do anything for me
Toss and turn without me, boy
I want you to have trouble sleeping without me
All my kisses, say you'll miss it
Promise me that you'll miss my affection
And you can forget me
But even if you try to forget me, I'll still be on your mind
What if I turn the lights right down?
What if we get intimate?
You and me in the dark right now
Imagining a possibly intimate scenario
All that we could do with this emotion
Imagining all the possibilities that could come from our strong emotions
