Crash Into me
Dave Matthews Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You got your chain
Tied to me tight, tie me up again
Who's got their claws in you, my friend?
Into your heart I'll beat again
Sweet like candy to my soul
Sweet you rock and sweet you roll
Lost for you, I'm so lost, for you
Oh, when you come
Crash into me
And I come into you
And I come into you
In a boy's dream
In a boy's dream
Touch your lips just so I know
In your eyes, love, it glows so
I'm bare-boned and crazy for you
Oh, when you come
Crash into me
Yeah, baby
When I come into you
In a boy's dream
In a boy's dream
If I've gone overboard
Then I'm begging you
To forgive me for my haste
When I'm holding you so, girl
Close to me
And you come crash
Into me, baby
And I come into you
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show the world to me
Hike up your skirt a little more
And show your world to me
A boy's dream
In a boy's dream
Oh, I watch you there
Through the window
And I stare at you
Wear nothing but you
Wear it so well
Tied up and twisted
The way I like to be
For you, for me, come crash
Into me
Baby, come crash into me
Crash into me
Crash into me
Crash into me
Oh, you know
I'm king of the castle
You're my dirty rascal
Crash into me
Please crash into me, baby
We both know
See the wave, come crash into me
See the wave, come crash into me
Crash into me
Oh, hey
No, no, no, no, no, no, hey yeah
No, no, no, no, no, no, hey, hey, hey
The song Crash Into Me by Dave Matthews is a love song that speaks about the intense feelings of desire and longing between two people. The opening of the song is ambiguous and could be interpreted in different ways, but it seems to suggest that the singer is somewhat trapped by the object of his affection, who has some sort of control over him (represented by the ball and chain imagery). Despite this, the singer is still drawn to this person and deeply in love with them.
The chorus of the song is the most memorable part, with the repeated phrase "crash into me" representing the urge of the singer to be physically and emotionally close to the person he loves. There is a sense of vulnerability and surrender in these lines, as the singer is willing to give himself completely to this other person. The reference to a "boy's dream" could be seen as suggesting that this love is idealistic and pure, like something from a fairy tale.
The bridge of the song is particularly intimate, with the singer asking the person he loves to reveal more of themselves to him. The imagery of hiking up a skirt could be seen as sexual in nature, but it could also be interpreted as a metaphor for opening up emotionally. There is a sense of desperation in the singer's voice, as he pleads with this person to come closer to him.
Overall, Crash Into Me is a song that captures the intensity of young love and the feeling of being completely consumed by another person. The lyrics are poignant and heartfelt, with a sense of yearning that is hard to resist.
