Carly Rae Jepsen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And get drunken off your tears
Don't you share your smile with anyone else but me
I wanna touch your heart
I wanna crush it in my hands
Make you plead and cry as you give up all the lies
We're not lovers
Put a flame to every single word you ever said
No more crying
To get me through
I'll keep dancing 'til the morning with somebody new
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Over you
Over you
Stuck in a real bad dream
And man, it feels so new to me
Should be in your arms but I'm begging at your feet
It's been a real hard night
And I just hold my pillow tight
It won't love me back, no,
It's not you and I
We're not lovers
But more than friends
Put a flame to every single word you ever said
No more crying
To get me through
I'll keep dancing 'til the morning with somebody new
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Over you
Over you ah
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Tonight I'm getting over you
Over you
Over you (Tonight I'm getting over you)
We're not lovers
But more than friends
Put a flame to every single word you ever said
And no more crying
To get me through
I'll keep dancing 'til the morning with somebody new
Tonight I'm getting over you

In the first verse, Jepsen sings about wanting to help her ex overcome their fears and get over the pain of their breakup.

I want to emotionally connect with you
I wanna crush it in my hands
I want to have power over your heart

Stuck in a real bad dream
Feeling trapped in a hopeless situation
And man, it feels so new to me
This feeling is foreign to me
Should be in your arms but I'm begging at your feet
I should be with you, but instead I am pleading for your attention
It's been a real hard night
It has been a difficult night
And I just hold my pillow tight
I am trying to find comfort in my pillow
It won't love me back, no,
My pillow cannot give me the love and affection I need
It's not you and I
Our relationship is not working out
Over you ah
I am moving on from you

I wanna smash your fears
Eu quero esmagar seus medos
And get drunken off your tears
E ficar bêbada com suas lágrimas
Don't you share your smile with anyone else but me
Não divida seu sorriso com mais ninguém além de mim
I wanna touch your heart
Eu quero tocar seu coração
I wanna crash it in my hands
Eu quero esmagá-lo em minhas mãos
Make you plead and cry as you give up all the lies
Fazer você se declarar e chorar ao desistir de todas as mentiras
We're not lovers
Nós não somos namorados
But more than friends
Mas somos mais que amigos
Put a flame to every single word you ever said
Coloque fogo em cada palavra que você já disse
No more crying
Não tem mais choro
To get me through
Que me atinja
I'll keep dancing till the morning with somebody new
Vou ficar dançando até de manhã com um novo alguém
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
Stuck in a real bad dream
Presa num pesadelo
And man it feels so new to me
E cara, isso é tão novo para mim
Should be in your arms but I'm begging at your feet
Devia estar em seus braços mas estou implorando a seus pés
It's been a real hard night
Tem sido uma noite bem difícil
And I just hold my pillow tight
E eu só agarro meu travesseiro apertado
It won't love me back, no
Ele não vai me amar de volta, não
It's not you and I
Não é você e eu
We're not lovers
Nós não somos namorados
But more than friends
Mas somos mais que amigos
Put a flame to every single word you ever said
Coloque fogo em cada palavra que você já disse
No more crying
Não tem mais choro
To get me through
Que me atinja
I'll keep dancing till the morning with somebody new
Vou ficar dançando até de manhã com um novo alguém
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Tonight I'm getting over you
Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
Over you
Esquecer você
(Tonight I'm getting over you)
(Hoje à noite eu vou esquecer você)
We're not lovers

I was with my boyfriend for 6 years until we got married. I remember listening to her songs when he told me he cheated on me and it helped me get through it all. I remember when I finally got tired of feeling sorry for myself and remembering that I’m better than that feeling, that I wanted to finally start living for myself again and as luck would have it, this song crept up on my “auto play” song list and I remember feeling a fire inside me when I heard this song.
I’m divorced now but, during my divorce, I managed to finish school while working part time and get my bachelor degree despite the lack of moral support and ridicule from some family members for my area of study and found someone new. I’m much happier now needless to say. :)
