Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(I love you)

Under my skin, under my skin
Got me strugglin'
And know where you end and where I begin
And we feel incredible, we feel no pain
You got me feelin' insane, got me strugglin'
And know where you end and where I begin

Had my head underwater
Had my mind under covers
Had my faith in the gutter
Underwater, water, water, water, water, oh

But when you look at me
I'm higher, higher, higher
Eyes on me
I'm higher, higher, higher
Nothing matters at all when I see you with your eyes on me
I'm higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher

Huh (I love you)
I'ma pop out with her, no lie
I'ma get away, oh baby, we slide
Head in the clouds when I look in your eyes
I don't got a doubt on the back of my mind
That you got it, got it, got it all (got it, got it, got it all)
And you know it's you that drives me crazy (know it's you that drives me crazy)

Had my head (had my head) underwater (underwater)
Had my mind (had my mind) under covers (undercover)
Had my faith (my faith) in the gutter (in the gutter)
Underwater, water, water, water, water, oh (water, water)

But when you look at me
I'm higher, higher, higher
Eyes on me
I'm higher, higher, higher
Nothing matters at all when I see you with your eyes on me
I'm higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher

Had my head underwater
Had my mind undercover
Had my faith in the gutter
Underwater, water, water, water, water

But when you look (you look) at me (at me)
I'm higher, higher, higher
Eyes (your eyes) on me (on me)
I'm higher, higher, higher
Nothing matters at all when I see you with your eyes on me
I'm higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher





I love you

Line by Line Meaning

Under my skin, under my skin
You have found a place within me that is so deep and personal it feels like you are literally under my skin


Got me strugglin'
You make me feel both intensely happy and uneasy at the same time, creating an inner struggle


And know where you end and where I begin
Our love is so strong that we have become indivisible, with no clear demarcation between ourselves


And we feel incredible, we feel no pain
When I am with you, I feel invincible and nothing is able to break the bond we have


You got me feelin' insane, got me strugglin'
Your love has overwhelmed me to the point where I feel almost crazy and have an internal battle every time I think of it


Had my head underwater
I was drowning in my own thoughts and emotions, feeling lost and unable to break free


Had my mind under covers
I was hiding away from the world around me and didn't want to face any of my problems or fears


Had my faith in the gutter
I had lost hope and trust in anything, feeling like there was no point in believing in anything anymore


But when you look at me
When I see the way you look at me, everything changes and I feel a sense of hope and happiness


I'm higher, higher, higher
You lift me up and make me feel alive, like I am above everything else in the world


Eyes on me
Your gaze on me gives me a feeling of importance and a sense of being cared for


Nothing matters at all when I see you with your eyes on me
All of life's problems and issues fade away when you focus your attention solely on me


Higher, higher, higher
Being with you makes me feel like I am reaching new heights and experiencing something greater than myself

Lyrics:
I love you

Under my skin, under my skin
Got me struggling to know where you end and where I begin
And we feel incredible, we feel no pain
You got me feeling insane
Got me struggling to know where you end and where I begin

Had my head under water
Had my mind under covers
Had my faith in the gutter
Under water, water, water, water, water

But when you look at me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Noting matters at all
When I see you with your
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher

Imma pop out wid it, no lie
Imma get it wet oh baby, we slide
Head in the clouds when I look in your eyes
I don’t got a doubt in the back of my mind
That you got it, got it, got it all (got it, got it, got it all)
And you know it’s you that drives me crazy (know it’s you that drives me crazy)

Had my head under water
Had my mind under covers
Had my faith in the gutter
Under water, water, water, water, water

But when you look at me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Noting matters at all
When I see you with your
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher
Higher, higher, higher

Had my head under water
Had my mind under cover
Had my faith in the gutter
Under water, water, water, water, water

But when you look at me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher
Noting matters at all
When I see you with your
Eyes on me
I’m higher, higher, higher

Higher, higher, higher,
Higher, higher, higher
I love you
