Jason Derülo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning

(Derulo)

It's too hard to sleep
I got the sheets on the floor, nothing on me
And I can't take it no more, it's a hundred degrees
I got one foot out the door, where are my keys?
'Cause I gotta leave, yeah
In the back of the cab


I tipped the driver 'head of time, get me there fast
I got your body on my mind, I want it bad
Ooh, just the thought of you gets me so high
So high

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Just to get up next to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (oh yeah)

You open the door
Wearing nothing but a smile, fell to the floor
And you whisper in my ear, "Baby, I'm yours"
Ooh, just the thought of you gets me so high, so high
So high

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (yeah)
Just to get up next to you
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Just the thought of you
Gets me so high, so high
Ooh, just the thought of you
Gets me so high, so high

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you

Girl, you're the one I want to want me
And if you want me, girl, you got me
There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
Just to get up next to you

I would do anything
Just to get up next to you
Anything and everything
Just to get up next to you (baby)

Just to get up next to you (oh)
Get up, get up

Overall Meaning

The song "Want To Want Me" by Jason Derulo is a catchy and upbeat track about a man who can't stop thinking about a woman he desires. The lyrics describe his physical desire for her, with lines like "I got your body on my mind, I want it bad" and "You open the door, wearing nothing but a smile." He talks about feeling so hot that he can't even sleep, and how the thought of her gets him "so high."


The chorus of the song emphasizes that the woman he desires is the only one he wants. He sings, "Girl, you're the one I want to want me", and expresses that he would do anything just to be near her.


While the lyrics are certainly sexual in nature, there is also an underlying sense of vulnerability and longing. The repetition of the phrase "so high" reflects this, as if the feelings he has for this woman are almost overwhelming him.


In all, "Want To Want Me" is a fun and flirty song that captures the excitement and anticipation of a new crush or romantic interest.

It's too hard to sleep
I'm having trouble sleeping


I got the sheets on the floor, nothing on me
I threw my sheets on the ground and I'm not wearing anything


And I can't take it no more, it's a hundred degrees
I can't handle this heat anymore because it's so hot


I got one foot out the door, where are my keys?
I'm ready to leave, but I can't find my keys


'Cause I gotta leave, yeah
I need to go


In the back of the cab
I'm sitting in the back seat of a taxi


I tipped the driver 'head of time, get me there fast
I gave the driver a tip in advance so they will hurry and take me to my destination quickly


I got your body on my mind, I want it bad
I'm thinking about your body all the time and I really want it


Ooh, just the thought of you gets me so high
The thought of you makes me feel really good and excited


Girl, you're the one I want to want me
I want you to desire me


And if you want me, girl, you got me
If you want me, I'm yours


There's nothing I, no, I wouldn't do (I wouldn't do)
I'm willing to do anything for you


Just to get up next to you
I want to be close to you physically


You open the door
You welcome me in


Wearing nothing but a smile, fell to the floor
You're not wearing clothes and you fell to the ground


And you whisper in my ear, "Baby, I'm yours"
You tell me that you belong to me in a soft voice


Just the thought of you gets me so high, so high
Thinking about you makes me feel very happy and excited
