Don't Turn The Lights
Enrique Iglesias Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What this is all about
'Cause baby half the fun
Is in us figuring it up all out
So why you gotta ask me
What I'm doing now
'Cause I don't like to question
So don't turn off the lights
I don't want to be in the dark tonight
'Cause I can't read your mind
I need to know if what I'm doing is right
So don't turn off the lights
So don't turn off the lights
So tell me how
We're gonna get there
It's so hard to even try
But if we move together
We'll end up on the same side
So don't turn off the lights
I don't want to be in the dark tonight
'Cause I can't read your mind
I need to know if what I'm doing is right
So don't turn off the lights
So don't turn off the lights
If you could know what I'm feeling
Would you run and where would you go
If you want to know what I'm thinking
Then just turn on the lights and you'll know
So don't turn off the lights
I don't want to be in the dark tonight
'Cause I can't read your mind
I need to know if what I'm doing is right
So don't turn off the lights
So don't turn off the lights
I don't want to be in the dark tonight
'Cause I can't read your mind
I need to know if what I'm doing is right
So don't turn off the lights
So don't turn off the lights
(Don't turn off the lights)
"Don't Turn off the Light" is a love song by Spanish singer Enrique Iglesias. The song is about a man who is in a relationship with a woman but is unsure of her feelings towards him. The opening line of the song itself suggests that the girl already knows what's going on between them, but the fun lies in figuring out everything about each other. The lyrics express his concern about losing her if he doesn’t get any signals from her. He urges his partner not to turn off the lights as he wants to see everything she is feeling.
The lyrics in the chorus and throughout the song emphasize that the man is struggling to read the woman's mind as she's not communicating if he is doing the right things in their relationship, causing him feelings of uncertainty. He wants her to trust him and make sure he is doing everything right. The song has a sweet and romantic tone, but ultimately reflects on how important communication is in any relationship.

I don't have to tell you
I shouldn't have to explain myself to you
What this is all about
The nature of our relationship should be obvious
'Cause baby half the fun
Because figuring it out together is part of the excitement
Is in us figuring it up all out
The fun is in us discovering each other's feelings and intentions
So why you gotta ask me
Why are you questioning me all the time?
What I'm doing now
What I'm doing at this moment shouldn't matter
'Cause I don't like to question
I don't like to constantly question our relationship
What I still haven't found
I'm still figuring things out and don't want to jump to conclusions
If you could know what I'm feeling
If you could understand my emotions
Would you run and where would you go
Would you be scared and leave me?
If you want to know what I'm thinking
If you really want to understand me
Then just turn on the lights and you'll know
Then communicate with me openly and honestly
So tell me how
Tell me how we can make it work
We're gonna get there
We will eventually reach our goal together
It's so hard to even try
It's difficult to navigate this situation
But if we move together
If we work together
We'll end up on the same side
We'll eventually come to a mutual understanding
So don't turn off the lights
Don't shut down the communication between us
I don't want to be in the dark tonight
I need clarity and understanding from you tonight
'Cause I can't read your mind
I can't understand what you're thinking unless you communicate with me
I need to know if what I'm doing is right
I need reassurance that I'm making the right decisions for us
(Don't turn off the lights)
(Keep the lines of communication open)
