Running Over
Justin Bieber Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the beginning it was ending
We were emotionally pending
Jeopardy, second guessing
Got all the questions to my answers

Keep running over
Me with your loving
I'm only right here for your consumption
Keep running over
Me with your loving
Looking like it's turning into something

Wednesday
It felt like a Tuesday when you met me
I remember it like it was yesterday
You just said "Hello", I lost my sanity
Thought you was looking through me
Then you made me laugh with personality
When you said goodbye that was a tragedy
Had to get a lesson in anatomy
You just ran me over
Look out, watch out, got me on the defense
Thought love at first sight was just a false pretense
Took my hat off, made me pledge allegiance
Everything was in divine sequence

Keep running over
Me with your loving
I'm only right here for your consumption
Keep running over
Me with your loving
Looking like it's turning into something
Better that than turning into nothing (way-oh, way-oh)
Ain't no interrupting this eruption (way-oh, way-oh)

(LD, huh)
I believe in love
Girl, you got my hopes all up
When I left you, when I met you
I called mom and told her 'bout it
I got all up on your IG and was scrolling down for hours
I got back to 2015 and you started looking young, so I stopped (oh)
Post intercourse when you walk by (ass, ass, ass)
More buns than a Shop Rite (whoa)
And you wanna sleep over my crib?
Lemme go and get you a soft t-shirt, here (soft tee)
What are our kids gonna be like? (Hmm?)
What is your skin routine like?
Girl, just run around bed with me
I'll flirt with you all cleverly (ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
I'll lock you down, Pat Beverley
I'll kiss your breast so tenderly, wussup? (Your breast)
How are you so hot and so cute? (How?)
I wanna make a language up with you
You're already driving me crazy, so just

Keep running over
Me with your loving
I'm only right here for your consumption
Keep running over
Me with your loving
Looking like it's turning into something




Better that than turning into nothing (way-oh, way-oh)
Ain't no interrupting this eruption (way-oh, way-oh)

O mundo estava esperando por esse álbum incrível ❤🇧🇷

@mundo_gringo2993

Mas me decepcionei apesar de eu ser fa dele nao gostei de nenhuma musica dele pq o cara parece q fez musica foi pra caseira dele so musica melosa

@biasilva1096

@卂 ⦉⦉⦉⦉A⦊⦊⦊⦊ 卂 ele quer mostrar q amadureceu por causa de quem ama. Esse álbum foi basicamente pra isso. Eu realmente gostei. Não se compara a Purpose mas ainda é um dos álbuns q realmente da gosto de ouvir.

@mundo_gringo2993

@Bia Silva poiser nao gostei do amadurecimento preferia ele harcore ou bad boy

@mundo_gringo2993

Quero q ele leve um chifre dela pra largar de ser gado

@biasilva1096

@卂 ⦉⦉⦉⦉A⦊⦊⦊⦊ 卂 ele bad boy nas músicas seria legal. Mas na vida real não seria legal. Tenta aceitar o novo "eu" dele. Mas é como ele disse: "Não é pq estou passando por mudanças q ele vai mudar".

Me encanta la delicadeza total de esta álbum. Se nota que tenía unas ganas ENORMES de regresar. La instrumental, el feeling de cada verso y la voz que hace vibrar cada nota. Señoras y señores, ¡BIEBER ESTA DE VUELTA!

Bendiciones a todos y disfruten este álbum mágico.

Pd: Justin quería "La bomba" prro :(
