This Girl
Jonas Blue Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Money rains from the sky above
But keep the change 'cause I've got enough
A little time and some tenderness
You'll never buy my love

No other thing that's as precious to
No other! There's no other!
Than a heart that's real and a heart that's true

Somethin' that you've got to know, this girl

Whoo!
Take my hand
Or take over
Take my hand, you
Or take over
Take my hand, you
Or take over
Take my hand
Or take over

These presents don't really come for free
Your paychecks don't mean that much to me
Just take my hand and hold me tight
You'll never buy my love
You buy me this and you buy me that
To win over
Win me over
You got me wrong and that's a fact
Somethin' that you've got to know, this

Will you realize when I'm gone
That I dance to a different song?
Will you realize when I'm gone
That I dance to a different song?
It's a shame but I've got to go

Whoo!
Take my hand
Or take over
Take my hand, you
Or take over
Take my hand, you
Or take over

Take my hand
Or take over

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Jonas Blue's song "This Girl" speak to a common theme of love that cannot be bought with money or material possessions. Blue's opening lyrics of "money rains from the sky above, but keep the change 'cause I've got enough" sets the tone for the song's message that love and happiness cannot be bought with money. He continues with "these presents don't really come for free, your paychecks don't mean that much to me", emphasizing that while material possessions are nice, they are not a substitute for love.

The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "take my hand or take over" several times, insinuating that the singer is willing to give the other person control in the relationship to an extent. However, he later says "you got me wrong and that's a fact", indicating that the other person's efforts to win him over with material possessions have missed the mark. The song ends with a sense of finality as Blue sings "it's a shame but I've got to go", suggesting that the relationship may not have worked out due to the mismatch in priorities.

Overall, "This Girl" is a song about the importance of love and connection beyond material possessions, and the reality that relationships where one person prioritizes monetary gain over emotional fulfillment are unlikely to succeed.

It's a shame but I've got to go
I'm sorry, but I have to leave.
