Jay Sean/Rishi Rich Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Beep, beep on
Now there goes my phone
And once again
I'm just hoping it's a text from you
It ain't right
Read your messages twice, thrice, four times a night it's true
Everyday I patiently wait
Feeling like a fool but I do anyway
Nothing can feel as sweet and as real
Cause no way I would've waited in pain

[Chorus]
And maybe it's true I'm caught up on you
Maybe there's a chance you're stuck on me too
Maybe I'm wrong it's all in my head
Maybe we're afraid of words we both hadn't said

I'm always connected online
Turn facebook all the time
Hoping you've checked my profile
Just can't help wondering why you play it cool
But sometimes I'm hopelessly falling for you
Every night on the phone and I
In love with you and I know that you like it girl
All joking inside lets see you and I
Come out and say what you're trying to hide

[Chorus]

Like I really want you
I think I need you
Maybe I miss you
I'm thinking of you
Like I really want you
I think I need you
Maybe I miss you
I'm thinking of you





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

In this song, Jay Sean expresses the feelings of someone who is hopelessly in love with a person who they're not sure if they share the same feelings. The first verse describes the singer's eagerness to receive a text from the person they love. They constantly check their phone to see if the person has texted them. The second verse describes how they check their social media profiles in hopes of finding any indication that the person they love is interested in them. The singer is in love with the person and knows that the person likes them too, but they are both afraid to express their true feelings. The chorus emphasizes the uncertainty of the singer's emotions, wondering whether they are caught up on the person or if it's all in their head. They desire for the other person to come out and say what they're holding back.


The song is relatable to anyone who has experienced unrequited love or being in a situation where they're not sure if the person they're into feels the same way. It also highlights the fear and anxiety that often accompany these types of feelings. The upbeat melody contrasts with the lyrics, conveying the mixed emotions of the singer.

Jad mere wal hasdi mainu aawe na koi baat,
Fer aake Tere naal karni koi gal baat,
Tere piche ghuma main saari raat,
Tu kini sohni lagdi mere Dil wich wasgi.

Translation: When you look at me and smile,
I am awestruck (out of words),
Then I'll come to talk to you,
I'll follow you around all night
Oh you look so beautiful,
You're in my heart now.

It's a loose translation but I hope it helps.
