Jump
Julia Michaels Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmm, ah

Stay right there, get away
I need space, I told you yesterday
"Slow the pace down," then I see your face
Can we do that tomorrow? (Can we do that tomorrow?)
'Cause now you're moving in on my skin
I move back with my lips
It goes against my better judgement
'Cause I, 'cause I want it, ah

And I'm gonna be cliché here for a minute
And tell you that I've been hurt before (hurt before)
So I think I'm gonna need another minute
To not hurt no more (no more)

'Cause all I do is jump right into your arms
Every time I see you
I just wrap myself around you, yeah
Jump into something real
Even though I'm cautious, I just like the way it feels
When it's us, baby, when it's us
You make me forget that I'm not ready for love
I jump, oh, I jump

Look at me being soft
Cut it all, my mind is getting lost
From your touch, I can't afford the cost
Of me losing myself to you (losing myself to you)
And I didn't want these feelings, but I brought 'em
But I know that you know exactly when I caught 'em
And I'm trying not to think about it often, but, ooh

'Cause all I do is jump right into your arms
Every time I see you
I just wrap myself around you, yeah
Jump into something real
Even though I'm cautious, I just like the way it feels
When it's us, baby, when it's us
You make me forget that I'm not ready for love
I jump, oh, I jump

Jump, jump up in this foreign
Used to sleep on couches now, the boy is really tourin'
If they sleep on me, I tell them haters
"Go and sleep it away," yeah
Fell in love, but it ain't no trust
If it ain't no trust, then that girl can't be my love
'Posed to put my love above
But instead you gon' sleep it away, yeah
Like a earthquake, yeah
I'm dealing with another lil' heartbreak
Man, I wish I'd never met you in the first place
And that karma gonna get you in the worst way, yeah
Don't throw your love away, don't throw your trust away
You always run away, I wish you would fucking stay
But I guess we need another break

'Cause all I do is jump right into your arms
Every time I see you, I just wrap myself around you, yeah
Jump into something real
Even though I'm cautious, I just like the way it feels
When it's us, baby, when it's us
You make me forget that I'm not ready for love
I jump, oh, I jump
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

'Cause all I do is ('cause all I do is, 'cause all I do is)
Jump
Mmm, yeah
'Cause all I do is ('cause all I do is, 'cause all I do is)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Jump
('Cause all I do is, 'cause all I do is)
('Cause all I do is, 'cause all I do is)
Jump (jump, jump, jump)




('Cause all I do is, 'cause all I do is)
Jump (jump, jump, jump)

Overall Meaning

The song "Jump" by Julia Michaels is a cautionary tale about being cautious when it comes to love. The singer is hesitant and wants to take things slow but finds themselves constantly gravitating towards their love interest. Michaels starts off by setting the scene for the listener, telling the love interest that they need space and to slow down. However, when they see the love interest's face, they can't resist the temptation to be with them again.


Throughout the song, the singer admits to their own vulnerability and past hurts. They are aware that they shouldn't be jumping into a relationship so quickly, but they can't help themselves. They want to be with this person, even though it may not be the best decision for them. They are trying to figure out how to balance their feelings of infatuation while also protecting themselves from getting hurt.


The song takes a turn when the perspective shifts to the love interest. A male voice comes in, rapping about his own struggles in the relationship. He wants to trust the singer but has been hurt before. He's frustrated that she keeps running away from their problems and wishes that she would just stay.


Overall, "Jump" is a powerful and emotional song about the challenges of falling in love. It reminds listeners to be cautious with their hearts and to take things slow, even if it goes against what they want.
