About You
Jadelyn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tryna get you off you my mind
Sleeping with you by my side
Is something I don't wanna do again
Driving, kissing in your car
Drunken nights out at the bar
Is something I don't wanna do again
I don't want to stay in love
All we do is fight now
Why is this our life now?
I don't want to stay in love with you
Thinking bout you (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
But I don't want to (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
How many nights did you go on and on yeah
Telling me how you think that I'm weak?
You (Ooh ooh)
Cause we lost what we never started
Friday nights laughing in bed
Turned to me alone instead
I don't wanna do that again, no
I don't have nothing left to say
Cause i don't want another heartbreak
And I know that you will never change
I don't want to stay in love
All we do is fight now
Why is this our life now?
I don't want to stay in love with you
Thinking bout you (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
But I don't want to (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
How many nights did you go on and on yeah
Telling me how you think that I'm weak?
You (Ooh ooh)
Cause we lost what we never started
Take it away from me ya started
Take it away from me ya started
Take it away from me
Take it away from me
Take it away from me yeah yeah
Take it away from what you've started
Take it away from me ya started
Take it away from me
Take it away from me
Take it away
Thinking bout you (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
But I don't want to (Ooh ooh)
You (Ooh ooh)
How many nights did you go on and on yeah
Telling me how you think that I'm weak?




You (Ooh ooh)
Cause we lost what we never started

Overall Meaning

In the song "About You" by Jadelyn, the lyrics depict a complicated and troubled romantic relationship. The singer expresses their desire to move on and forget about their former lover. They recount various activities they used to enjoy together, such as sleeping next to each other and going on drunken nights out, but now they have no intention of repeating those experiences.


The lyrics reveal the singer's exhaustion and frustration with their current situation. They no longer want to be in love because all they do is fight with their partner. They question why their relationship has become this way and express their longing to break free from this cycle of conflict and unhappiness. The singer understands that staying in love with their partner will only result in more pain.


The chorus encompasses the conflicting emotions the singer feels towards their former lover. They think about them, but concurrently, they don't want to be associated with them anymore. This conflicting desire highlights the complexity of their emotions. Additionally, the lyrics mention the former lover belittling the singer, calling them weak. This suggests a toxic dynamic in the relationship, where one person undermines and criticizes the other's strength.


Finally, the last lines of the song reinforce the idea that the relationship never truly took off. The singer feels like they have lost something that never really started or had the potential to be successful. The repetition of "take it away from me" suggests a plea for liberation from the emotional burden and pain caused by their former lover.


Overall, "About You" illustrates the singer's struggle to let go of a toxic relationship and seek happiness elsewhere. They no longer want to stay in love because it only brings them pain, and they long to break free from the emotional turmoil that has consumed their lives.
