Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's old skool, this is love, y'all,
(Yeah)
Ok Ladies,
Why'know you got a man,
And you're feeling in love with him right now,
I want you to hold him real tight, like,
And one hand in his hand,
And step to the left,
Step to the right
You showed me how to love
You showed me how to be, a part of you,
Somethin' about your touch,
Yeah babe I feel brand new,
And when I'm angry
(Angry)
And when I'm feeling bad,
(Feeling bad)
When I can't even speak
(When I can't even speak)
You just hold my hand,
I don't know where I'd be,
If you weren't next to me,
[Chorus]
Hold me in your arms,
And dance with me tonight,
Please don't feel the way,
To show me what you like,
You got what I want,
You got what I need,
Oh baby (Baby)
I love you (I love you)
Lovin' me
Listen, oh
You make me feel so real,
(Make me feel so real)
Understand every deal, and every chill
(Chill)
Baby like it's candlelight,
And it feels super extra special,
(Oh)
And when I need you
(When I need you)
Yes you're always there
(You're always there)
Two steps away,
(Two steps away)
And now I got you there
(Got you there)
This is our time,
All the time in the world,
Baby, by, by
[Chorus]
Listen to me now
Love don't let me down,
Don't (now)
You're here
(You're here)
Please stay
All we have is this, so please,
Don't take the night away,
[Chorus: x2]

Line by Line Meaning
Can you believe that we have just met
Expressing surprise at the fleeting nature of time and how quickly a relationship can form
Can you repeat the words you first said
Recalling the initial spark of attraction and wanting to relive that moment
It's hard to breathe
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to fully grasp the intensity of emotions being experienced
Even with distance between us
Acknowledging the physical separation that exists between two people who are emotionally connected
Sometimes it seems that you don't exist
Reflecting on the surreal feeling of falling for someone who is not physically present
Most nights I dream about our first kiss
Yearning for the moment when physical distance will no longer be a factor in the relationship
How long's the wait
Impatiently wondering how long it will take until the two people can finally be together
Before we can say we've had our first date
Anticipating the excitement and nervousness that comes with embarking on a new relationship
Come and dance with me
Inviting the other person to join in the joy and celebration of their relationship
Let your heartbeat move you
Encouraging the other person to embrace their emotions and let themselves be swept away in the moment
I will see you someday soon where
Looking forward to the moment when they will finally be together in person
Then you'll dance with me
Visualizing a future where the two people can share physical intimacy and fully embrace each other
Physically
Emphasizing the importance of physical connection in the relationship
Tell me how much I mean to you
Expressing vulnerability and asking for validation in the relationship
And tell me if love is real to you
Asking a deep and profound question about the nature of love and its place in their relationship
Cuz right now it seems as real as it
Recognizing the intense emotions currently being felt and affirming their validity
Can be to me
Asserting the strength and authenticity of their own feelings
Fairy tales end with married princes
Referencing the cultural stereotype of a happy ending in romantic relationships
Wish it was one of my granted wishes
Expressing a desire for their own fairy tale ending
You are my genie because of that
Comparing their partner to a magical wish-granting figure who can fulfill their deepest desires
Wish it brought you to me
Still yearning for physical proximity and intimacy despite the emotional connection
