Yeah Yeah
Cheryl & Travie McCoy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you love me like that,
Boy, I love you right back
We ain't similar
They say opposites attract
Everytime I hold you,
Can't be any closer,
Told my ex on to the next
It's official, we're over

'Cause every night
I dream of you being by my side,
And I can take a lifetime of loving you,
Right now that's what I've been meaning to,
So let's no complicate it, just say yeah

Yeah yeah yeah,
We could do this forever,
That's if you wanted to? Could you?
Yeah yeah yeah,
We should do this forever,
So it's just me and you, and you,
Waiting all this time,
And I'm not letting you pass me by,
'Cause you're the miracle in my life
The sun that shines on a cloudy night,
So if you want it, you want it say.

It's Travie,
I don't wanna make no promises,
I just wanna show what it is,
Take advantage when somebody's down for you like this
And if you don't understand,
Come on and take me by the hand,
If you can't forget the past,
Just remember what we had.

'Cause every night
I dream of you being by my side,
And I can take a lifetime of loving you,
Right now that's what I've been meaning to,
So let's no complicate it, just say yeah

Yeah yeah yeah,
We could do this forever,
That's if you wanted to? Could you?
Yeah yeah yeah,
We should do this forever,
So it's just me and you, and you,
Waiting all this time,
And I'm not letting you pass me by,
'Cause you're the miracle in my life
The sun that shines on a cloudy night,
So if you want it, you want it say.

You're forever mine,
My light in the dark,
You're my calling card,
My name's on your heart (your heart, your heart, your heart, your heart)

Yeah yeah yeah,
We could do this forever,
That's if you wanted to? Could you?
Yeah yeah yeah,
We should do this forever,
So it's just me and you, and you,
Waiting all this time,
And I'm not letting you pass me by,
'Cause you're the miracle in my life




The sun that shines on a cloudy night,
So if you want it, you want it say.

Overall Meaning

The song "Yeah Yeah" by Cheryl & Travie McCoy is about a couple who are in love and agree to be together forever. The first verse emphasizes the love the couple share for each other, despite their differences. They are completely smitten and don't want their love to be complicated. The chorus repeats the phrase "yeah yeah yeah," which implies that the couple is not looking for a complicated romance, but a simple one. They don't want to make any promises they cannot keep, but instead, keep it simple.


The second verse is sung by Travie McCoy, who sings about not wanting to make any promises but instead show the woman how he feels about her. He urges her to take advantage of his love and the fact that he's committed to her. The bridge stresses the idea that the two should forget their past and focus on what they have now. The song ends with the phrase "you're forever mine," which creates a sense of ownership and intense devotion between the couple.

I love so much this song, I can't understand why this masterpiece isn't a single

This song is so additive, I listened to it on repeat when this album came out. Reminds me of Halloween/Autumn time back in 2010
