Crush
Glee Castā Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ah, crush, ah

I see ya blowin' me a kiss
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby
If you see something in my eye
Let's not over-analyze
Don't go too deep with it baby (baby)

So it'll be, what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Not like we have a date with destiny

It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do, depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la

It's raising my adrenaline
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby
Say the word "forever more"
That's not what I'm looking for
All I can commit to is "maybe"

So it'll be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me (crazy over you and me)
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Not like we have a date with destiny (Ooh ooh)

It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la

Vanilla skies
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me

It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do (everything I do) depends on you
Sha-la-la-la (ah hey yeah yeah)
Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la (oh babe not like everything I do depends on you)
Sha-la-la-la




Sha-la-la-la (ah hey yeah yeah)
Sha-la-la-la

Overall Meaning

However, the singer warns not to over-analyze the situation and take it too seriously, preferring to just go with the flow and not make a big deal out of it. They even mention that they're not looking for a forever commitment, only a "maybe."


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "a little crush," emphasizing that the attraction is not a big deal to the singer, as the physical effects of the attraction such as adrenaline rushes are outlined. The phrase "not like I faint every time we touch" reinforces the casual nature of the crush, and the singer reminds themselves that they are not dependent on this person for their every action.


The bridge of the song describes a dreamlike vision, including "vanilla skies" and "white picket fences" in someone's eyes. This could tie in with the theme of the simple and idyllic nature of a crush, only to be admired from afar without intense complications.


Overall, the lyrics of "Crush" convey the familiar feeling of having a harmless crush and the reluctance to take things more seriously or get one's hopes up. It's a catchy and well-written pop song that captures the relatable feeling of a crush.
