That Thing
Hazel English Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How you make me feel this way
When there's nothing left to say
Just our eyes communicate
I lose control
When I'm alone with you
I'm unable to restrain
All my body gravitates
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do
I know I should stay away
But you hold me with your gaze
Seems like time has been delayed
We exist in our own space
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do
I lose control
When I'm alone with you
I'm unable to restrain
All my body gravitates
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do that thing
I love it when you do that thing to me
I love it when you do
Hazel English’s song “That Thing” is a love song that speaks to the irresistible attraction and magnetic pull felt toward a lover. The song begins by the singer expressing uncertainty about how her lover makes her feel, unable to comprehend the intense emotions she experiences in their presence. The only way they communicate is through their eyes, and it creates a peaceful silence that somehow speaks volumes. She admits to losing control when alone with her lover, completely powerless to resist their pull as her body gravitates towards them. However, she loves the feeling of being out of control, and the way her lover does that “thing” to her, a feeling that she finds irresistible.
Despite understanding that she should stay away to avoid these intense but uncontrollable feelings, she can’t, simply because of the way he holds her gaze. The chemistry between them is so strong that time seems to stand still or delay, creating a unique space where only they exist. As the song progresses, the singer expresses a desire for her lover to keep doing these things that make her feel so out of control because she loves it. She ends the song by repeating her love for the feelings that her lover generates in her and the things they do to one another.
Overall, the song is about intense attraction and the abject surrender experienced in the company of a lover. It’s about a deep connection and, no matter how uncertain it might make you feel, embracing the feeling because it’s what you truly want.

One of the greatest songs i've heard in a very long time. It takes me back to the 80's, aside from being sad & darkly romantic.
