Crave
Incognito Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If this ain't love
I guess I'll never know it even if I were as blinded by the light
If this ain't love
I guess I'll never know it even if it were a, give me back my sight

I will crave you tonight, I will crave you, come tomorrow
I will crave you for always, time brings me to the truth
And the truth brings me back to you, back to you

If this ain't love
I guess I'll never know it even if the thunder strikes me down tonight
If this ain't love
I guess I'll never know it even if you kiss me in the broad daylight

I will crave you tonight, I will crave you, come tomorrow
I'll crave you for always, time brings me to the truth
And the truth brings me back to you, back to you

I will crave you, crave you, I will crave you
(If this ain't love, ooh, oh)
Crave you
(If this ain't love)
I will crave you
(Crave you, crave you if this ain't love)

Crave you
(This ain't love, oh)
I will crave you
(This ain't love, crave you, yeah)




Crave you
(This ain't love, this ain't love)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Incognito's song Crave convey a sense of longing and confusion for a love that the singer is unsure of. The repetition of the line "if this ain't love, I guess I'll never know it" highlights the singer's uncertainty and the fact that they are willing to seek confirmation from external sources, whether it be "blinded by the light" or "thunder strikes me down tonight". The use of metaphors and vivid imagery, such as the singer being able to "crave you for always" and being brought "back to you", shows the intense nature of their desire for this love despite their doubts.


The chorus, which includes the repeated line "I will crave you tonight, I will crave you, come tomorrow", reinforces this idea of unrelenting longing. The repetition of the word "crave" creates a sense of urgency and neediness that adds to the emotional intensity of the song. The extended instrumental section towards the end of the song serves to build up the emotional tension and release it, culminating in the final repetition of "crave you" as a sort of catharsis.


Overall, Incognito's Crave is a powerful song that conveys a sense of desperation and longing for a love that is uncertain. The lyrics use vivid imagery and metaphors to create a sense of emotional intensity, while the repetition of the word "crave" and the extended instrumental section build up and release that intensity.
