You're My Thrill
Georgie Auld Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You do something to me
You send chills right through me
When I look at you 'cause you're my thrill
You're my thrill
How my pulse increases
I just go to pieces
Every time I look at you I can't keep stillHm
Nothing seems to matter
Hm
Here's my heart on a silver platter
Oh where's my will
Why this strange desire
Flaming higher and higher
Every time I look at you
I can't keep still
You're my thrill
Georgie Auld's "You're My Thrill" is a love ballad about the overwhelming attraction and obsession one feels for their significant other. The singer begins by admitting that their love interest is their thrill, and that this person has the power to send chills through their body. This line emphasizes how much the singer is affected by the presence of their lover, as the physical sensation of chills indicates an intensity of emotion that is difficult to control. The singer then continues to describe how their pulse increases and they "just go to pieces" every time they look at their lover. The singer is unable to keep still, which can be interpreted as an inability to control their emotions or actions in the presence of their lover.
The lyrics go on to express the singer's vulnerability and the extent of their feelings towards their lover. The singer acknowledges that nothing seems to matter, and their heart is metaphorically on a silver platter for their lover to take. The line "why this strange desire" highlights the intensity of the singer's feelings, showing that they are somewhat confused by their own infatuation. The final line, "flaming higher and higher every time I look at you", indicates that the singer's feelings are only growing more intense over time.
