VERTIGO
Derulo Jason Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Before you get in bed, though, on those heels
Hey girl, now I know why you waited
Had to be sure that I was worth the thrill
Ladies come and go but you got something different
Had me so addicted from the start
And I'd never known all this loving I'd be missing
If I didn't work my way into your heart
You give me vertigo, vertigo
The bed, the floor, the kitchen
Don't really matter as long as I get
Vertigo, vertigo
I'm tucked, all bottled inside
You're a bad baby, you're making me sweat
Tell me that its cool (cool) that I'm stuck on you (you)
Like your birthday suit (suit)
You give me vertigo, that vertigo
The way that you please me sets this room on fire
I'm burning with desire in this bed
So if I'm dreaming please don't wake me up
If all of this is happening in my head
Waited for so long
But what you got is different
Had me so addicted from the start
Boy, I'd never known all the shit that I was missing
If I hadn't worked my way into your heart
You give me vertigo, vertigo
The bed, the floor, the kitchen
Don't really matter as long as I get
Vertigo, that vertigo
I'm tucked, all bottled inside
You're a bad baby, you're making me sweat
Tell me that it's cool (cool) that I'm stuck on you (you)
Like your birthday suit (suit)
You give me vertigo, (vertigo) that vertigo
I'm working downtown
You all in my head
This love that we found
Well never regret
Were empty inside
I'm filling you up with our vertigo
You waking me up
To nothing to say
Right here in this bed
We stay here all day
And my head be spinning
You do matter in with our vertigo
You give me vertigo, (vertigo) vertigo
The bed, the floor, the kitchen
Don't really matter as long as I get
Vertigo, (vertigo) vertigo
I'm tucked, all bottled inside
You're a bad baby, you're making me sweat
Tell me that it's cool (cool) that I'm stuck on you (you)
Like your birthday suit (suit)
You give me vertigo, vertigo (vertigo)
Say you give me a vertigo vertigo
Baby, oh
Vertigo, vertigo
Say you give me ah
Say you give me ah
Vertigo, that vertigo
The song "Vertigo" by Jason Derulo is about wanting to be consumed by a lover so much that they give the singer vertigo, a sensation of dizziness and disorientation. The singer praises his lover and their ability to satisfy him physically and emotionally with the lyrics, "The way that you please me sets this room on fire, I'm burning with desire in this bed." He also expresses gratitude for being able to work his way into his lover's heart, saying that there were things he never knew he was missing until he met her.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase, "You give me vertigo," emphasizing the intense physical and emotional reactions that the singer experiences when he is with his lover. The setting of the encounter also doesn't matter to him - whether it's on the bed, floor, or kitchen, as long as he can experience the vertigo, he is happy.
Overall, the song is a celebration of passion, desire, and being consumed by a lover. The lyrics and beat of the song are upbeat and playful, creating a sense of excitement.
