Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're the only one I can talk to
And I ain't gotta talk to you
I'll even shut up if you want to, want to, yeah
I spend my time watching you

And you tell me just lay back
And you go to work
And you're working
Yeah, you're working
And I know you're 'bout your business
So go to work, yeah
I'm feeling fucked up, still love fucking
I ain't throwing money in the air for nothing

I do it 'cause you
You do it well
So well, so well, so well
Yeah, you, you do it well
So well that you can bill me
For the only therapy I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Therapy I know, I know
And you're the only therapy I know

You're the only one I can talk to, yeah
And I ain't gotta talk to you
Things I only tell you in the night time, baby
While I'm sitting here watching you

And you tell me just lay back
And you go to work
And you're working
Yeah, you're working
And I know you're 'bout your business
So go to work
Feeling fucked up, still love fucking
I ain't throwing money in the air for nothing

I do it 'cause you
You do it well
So well, so well, so well
Yeah, you, you do it well
So well that you can bill me
For the only therapy I know, I know, I know, I know, I know
Therapy I know, I know
And you're the only therapy I know





You are my therapy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to DVSN's "Do It Well" tell the story of a man who is in deep love with his partner to the point where she is his only source of peace and comfort. He tells her that she is the only one he can talk to, even if he doesn't say anything, he just wants to spend time watching her. She tells him to lay back and watch her go to work as she is about her business. Even though he feels fucked up, he still loves being intimate with her and throwing money in the air because she does it so well.


The chorus highlights how she does it so well, that he can be billed for the only therapy he knows which is being with her. She is the only therapy he knows and he repeats that several times. He loves her, and only her, and she brings him the comfort and peace he needs. It's clear in the song that the relationship is deep and intimate and that his partner is not only his love but also his best friend.


The lyrics are simple but they capture the essence of a deep love and an intimate relationship. The music video is also very sensual and shows the couple in different intimate scenes, which further emphasizes the deep love they have for each other. The song is a beautiful testament to the power of love and intimacy.
