Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ridin' in the drop-top with the top down
Saw you switchin' lanes, girl
Pull up to the red light, lookin' right
Come on, let me get your name, girl

Tell me where your from, what you do, what you like
Let me get your brain, girl
And tell me how they that got that pretty little face
On that pretty little frame girl

But let me show you 'round
Let me take you out
Betcha we can have some fun, girl
'Cause we can it do fast, fast, slow

Which ever way you wanna run, girl
But let me buy you drinks, better yet rings
Do it how you want it done, girl
And who woulda thought that you could be the one 'cause I

I can't wait to fall in love with you
You can't wait to fall in love with me
This just can't be summer love, you'll see
This just can't be summer love (L-O-V-E)

Come on, and let me show you 'round
Let me take you out
Betcha we can have some fun, girl
'Cause you could dress it up, we could dress it down

Any way you want it done, girl
Or we can stay home talkin' on the phone
Rappin' till we see the sun, girl
Do what I gotta do just gotta show you

That I'm the one, girl
Well, I'm a freak ya right each and every night
I know how to do it insane, girl
'Cause I can make ya hot, make ya stop

Make ya wanna say my name, girl
Come on, baby, please 'cause I'm on my knees
Can't get you off my brain, girl
But who would of thought that you could be the one 'cause I

I can't wait to fall in love with you
You can't wait to fall in love with me
This just can't be summer love, you'll see
This just can't be summer love (L-O-V-E)

'Cause I can't wait to fall in love with you
You can't wait to fall in love with me
This just can't be summer love, you'll see
This just can't be summer love (L-O-V-E)

Summer's over for the both of us
(Summer's over)
But that doesn't mean we should give up on us

And I knew the day I met you you'd be the one

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Justin Timberlakeโ€™s song โ€œSummer Love / Set The Mood Preludeโ€ speaks of a summer romance that has the potential to turn into something long-lasting. The song describes the possibility of a beautiful love story with a girl that he met while โ€œridin' in the drop-top with the top downโ€. The lyrics narrate the desire of the character to get to know the girl and learn more about her - her likes, dislikes, interests, and her aspirations.


The chorus of โ€œSummer Love / Set The Mood Preludeโ€ reflects the tense that the singer wants the relationship to move forward from a mere summer love to a real commitment. He cannot wait to fall in love with her, and he is hopeful that she feels the same way. The end of summer does not mean the end of their relationship, and they should not give up on it.


The prelude to โ€œSummer Loveโ€œ is titled โ€œSet The Mood,โ€ and it has its own chorus, which speaks of how the singer will create the appropriate vibe to make the night sensual and perfect. He promises that he will make her feel alright, and if she says his name tonight, he will make it worth her while.
