Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Are you ready?

You call me on the phone
I act like nothing's going on
We're driving in my car
I pretend that you don't turn me on
(Ah ah ah) you sexy thing
Yeah you know it yeah
(Ah ah ah) you move around now you show it

I'm not in love
It's just a fase that I'm going through
I'm always looking for something new
But don't go running away

It's almost three AM
I'm hoping that you don't let go
You're moving in so close
I'm trying not to lose control
(Ah ah ah) you sexy thing
Yeah you know it yeah
(Ah ah ah) you move around now you show it

I'm not in love
It's just a phase that I'm going through
I'm always looking for something new
Don't go running away
Oh I'm not in love
I try to tell myself all the time
I just can't help how I feel tonight
So don't go running away (yeah)

I'm not in love yeah yeah
I'm not in love
I'm not in love (give it to me now)
I'm not in love (break it down)
(Ah ah ah) you sexy thing
Yeah you know it
(Ah ah ah) you move around yea you show it

I'm not in love
It's just a phase that I'm going through
I'm always looking for something new
Don't go running away
Oh I'm not in love
I try to tell myself all the time
I just can't help how I feel tonight
So don't go running away (I'm not in love)

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




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

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Enrique Iglesias' song "Not In Love" featuring Kelis speak about the singer's desire for someone he has called on the phone, but he is trying not to let his feelings get the best of him. Even though he admits that the person is attractive and he cannot resist them, he affirms that what he is experiencing is not love but just a passing phase that he is going through. Despite this, he urges the person not to run away from him because he still wants to be around them.


The song explores the concept of casual relationships and sexual attraction without getting too emotionally invested in the other person. It portrays the struggle to avoid falling in love and getting attached to someone despite the strong feelings and physical attraction. The upbeat tempo of the song contrasts with the somewhat somber lyrics, creating a catchy tune that many can relate to.


In conclusion, "Not In Love" is a song about the desire for intimacy without commitment, portrayed through the eyes of someone who is trying not to get too involved. It shows the complexities and contradictions of human emotions and the struggles we face in trying to control our feelings.
