Girl
Jukebox Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So you say you've never been in love?
That you don't even know what that means.
You thought you did but now that it's over you think,
Can't even be half of the real thing
And as time goes on and on I can feel my heart growing colder and colder
But then I see your face in the crowd, I think
How could I be starting over?
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried
Open your heart
Open your mind.

Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh

And we always say the same old things,
And we always use the same tired lines
Stayin up all night, talkin it out
Endin up with noone on our side

And as time goes on and on, I can feel my heart growing colder and colder,
But then I see your face in the crowd, I think
How could I be starting over?
Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried.
Open your heart,
Open your mind.

Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh

Cause when you meet someone new
It all just takes over you
And you think that you never really tried,
And you think that you never really tried,
And you think that you never really tried!
Open your heart,
Open your mind.

Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant it
Girl, you're gunna save me,
Give me a chance, it's worth taking
Girl, you're gunna take me back to a time when I loved and I meant(when I loved and I




Girl, you're gunna save me,
Gimme a chance, it's worth taking, oh

This is the type of song that would come onto the radio and you would begin to slap your steering wheel, bounce up and down and sing at the top of your lungs.
All while the kid outside at the crosswalk is looking at you like you're having a medical emergency.
