Enrique Iglesias Lyrics


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 of Enrique Iglesias's song Not in Love talks about being in denial and trying to convince oneself that they are not in love with someone, despite their actions indicating otherwise. The song begins with the singer receiving a call from his love, but he acts like nothing is going on, and they drive around with the singer pretending that the other person does not turn him on. The chorus reveals that the singer is not in love, but it's just a phase he is going through, and he's always looking for something new. The singer acknowledges how attractive the person is and how they move around showing it.


As the song progresses, the tension between the two people increases, and it's almost three in the morning, and the singer hopes the person doesn't let go. But the singer is trying not to lose control, and the tension continues to build. The chorus repeats, and the singer states that he tries to tell himself that he's not in love with the person, but he cannot help how he feels tonight. The song ends with the singer repeating that he is not in love.


Overall, the lyrics are about denying one's true feelings for someone and trying not to give in to them, despite the physical attraction and undeniable chemistry. The chorus repeats several times to emphasize the singer's struggle to maintain control over his feelings and desire for something new.
