Crush
Chris Rockford Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see ya blowin' me a kiss
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby
If you see something in my eye
Let's not over analyze
Don't go too deep with it baby
So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Run like we have a day with destiny
It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la
It's raising my adrenaline
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby
You say the word "forevermore"
That's not what I'm looking for
All I can commit to is "maybe"
So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll pay loose
Run like we have a day with destiny
It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la
Vanilla skies (vanilla skies)
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me
It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do
Depends on you
The song “Crush” by Chris Rockford feat. Jennifer Paige describes the feeling of having a crush on someone. The song is upbeat, and the lyrics suggest that the singer is not willing to jump into a serious relationship with their crush. The song starts by saying that it doesn’t take a scientist to understand that the singer’s crush is blowing them a kiss. The singer advises against over-analyzing the situation and making it more complicated than it needs to be.
The chorus repeats the statement that the feeling is just a little crush and that it's not like the singer faints every time they touch their crush. However, the feeling is described as raising the singer's adrenaline, and they admit that it's just a little thing but not like everything they do depends on the person they have a crush on. The lyrics capture the idea of wanting to take things slow and not getting too invested before it's necessary.
The pre-chorus and chorus are repeated throughout the song, with the addition of the bridge, which describes a vision of the future with the crush. The song ends by repeating the chorus, emphasizing that the feeling is just a little crush, and the singer is not going to let it control their life.
