Not In Love
Countdown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not in love
So don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because
I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..
I like to see you
But then again
That doesn't mean you mean that much to me
So if I call you
Don't make a fuss
Don't tell your friends about the two of us
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..

I keep your picture
Upon the wall
It hides a nasty stain that's lying there
So don't you ask me
To give it back
I know you know it doesn't mean that much to me
I'm not in love, no no, it's because..

Ooh you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh you'll wait a long time
Ooh you'll wait a long time for me
Ooh you'll wait a long time

I'm not in love
So don't forget it
It's just a silly phase I'm going through
And just because I call you up
Don't get me wrong, don't think you've got it made




I'm not in love
I'm not in love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Not In Love" by Countdown convey a sense of detachment and emotional distance in a romantic relationship. The singer emphasizes that they are not in love and warns the other person not to mistake their actions or words for genuine affection. The repetitive refrain of "I'm not in love" serves as a reminder of their lack of emotional attachment.


The singer acknowledges that they enjoy spending time with the other person but cautions against reading too much into it. They want to make it clear that their connection is not significant and should not be exaggerated. The line "So if I call you, don't make a fuss, don't tell your friends about the two of us" suggests that the singer wants to keep their interactions and relationship under wraps, further reinforcing the idea that it is not a deep or serious connection.


The mention of keeping a picture on the wall that hides a "nasty stain" can be seen as a metaphor. It implies that the singer is holding onto a reminder of the other person, but it is merely a superficial representation that conceals the imperfections or negative aspects of the relationship. Overall, the lyrics paint a picture of a relationship that lacks emotional investment or commitment.
