Something About Us
Daft Punk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It might not be the right time
I might not be the right one
But there's something about us I want to say
'Cause there's something between us anyway

I might not be the right one
It might not be the right time
But there's something about us I've got to do
Some kind of secret I will share with you

I need you more than anything in my life
I want you more than anything in my life




I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
I love you more than anyone in my life

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Daft Punk's song "Something About Us" express feelings of love and longing, despite the hesitation and uncertainty that the singer feels about their relationship. The first verse acknowledges that the timing might not be right, and the singer might not be the right one for their partner, but there is still something between them that the singer wants to express. The second verse emphasizes the singer's need to share a secret with their partner, despite the potential risks.


The chorus then reinforces the depth of the singer's feelings for their partner. They need them more than anything, want them more than anything, and love them more than anyone in their life. It's a vulnerable expression of love and devotion, even if the relationship is uncertain or complicated.

Random thing for my late friend.
I was 16, they were also 16.
Now I'm 28 and they are still 16.
We'd hang out together every day after school.
They introduced me to so many wonderful music artists I've never even known about, including Daft Punk.
They'd let me vent to them all the time whenever I was feeling depressed.
Once they literally even saved me from $u!c!d3.
Then came the accident.

Miss you, Eri. <3
