Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh (woo)

Oh
Take me to your best friend's house
Goin' 'round this roundabout, oh yeah
Take me to your best friend's house
I loved you then and I love you now, oh yeah
Don't take me tongue-tied
Don't wave no goodbye
Don't break

Oh, take me to your best friend's house
Marmalade, we're making out, oh yeah
Oh, take me to your best friend's house
I loved you then and I love you now

Don't take me tongue-tied
Don't wave no goodbye
Don't break

One, two, three, four
Don't leave me tongue-tied
Let's stay up all night
I'll get real high
Slumber party, pillow fight
My eyes on your eyes
Like Peter Pan up in the sky
My best friend's house tonight
Let's bump the beats 'til beddy-bye

Don't take me tongue tied
Don't wave no goodbye
Don't take me tongue-tied
Don't kiss me goodnight
Don't, oh

Take me to your best friend's house
Roll around this roundabout, oh yeah
Take me to your best friend's house
I loved you then and I love you now
(All right, all right, all right)

Don't leave me tongue-tied (don't leave me)
Don't wave no goodbye (don't wave bye)
Don't leave me tongue tied (don't leave me)
Don't
Don't leave me tongue-tied (don't leave me)
Don't wave no goodbye (don't wave bye)
Don't leave me tongue-tied (don't leave me)
Don't

Yeah, yeah, yeah




Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Grouplove's song Tongue Tied is all about being in love and enjoying the simple pleasures of life with your significant other. The song highlights the euphoric feeling of being with someone and how being tongue-tied can be a good thing. The lyrics start off with the singer requesting the person to take them to their best friend's house, where they plan to spend the night indulging in some fun activities like making out, pillow fights, and dancing to some great music. The repetition of the line "I loved you then and I love you now" emphasizes the longevity of their affection towards their partner.


The lyrics also speak about not wanting to say goodbye and not wanting to leave the moment they are in. The line "Don't take me tongue-tied, don't wave no goodbye, don't break" implies that they don't want the moment to end, and it's a nod to the fact that they don't need to express their feelings verbally because their actions say more than words ever could. In the end, the singer repeats the line "Take me to your best friend's house" to reinforce the idea that they just want to be with their significant other and enjoy life to the fullest.
