About You Now
K-Ci & JoJo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sometimes I feel so alone baby girl
I call your heart but there's no one at home
Taking a toll on my pride
I'm reaching out but there's no one inside
You know it doesn't feel right
When I look in your eyes
I know love is blind but the heart doesn't lie
I'll ask one more time
Maybe this time you'll try
So tell me girl what's deep in your heart

Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you

I spend like all of my day, baby
Trying to sense out just how things got this way
I thought that we were in love
But I swear right now I don't know what you want, babe
I make sure that I give you quality time
But lately I feel you're not home by design
But still I'm gonna try to give you the love of my life
In hopes that you, that you will open up your heart, baby

Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you

Sometimes I'm not sure that
That I'm all you got
Sometimes I'm not sure you love me or not, baby
Just one thing that I'm certain of
Girl I care for you
And the one thing that I want is that you care for me too

Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you
Girl I care about you
I'm there for you
So why don't you care for me
Like I care about you

Oh baby, baby, baby, baby, baby,baby, babe, yeah




Yeah, oh yeah, ooooh
I care for you, babe

Overall Meaning

In the song "Crazy About U" by K-Ci & JoJo, the lyrics express a feeling of loneliness and hurt that comes from reaching out to someone you love but not getting a response. The singer is trying to connect with his partner but feels like he's being shut out. He acknowledges that love can be blind, but his heart knows that something is wrong. The lyrics suggest that the singer is putting in effort to show his love by giving quality time, but he feels like his partner is not reciprocating.


Throughout the song, the singer repeatedly expresses how much he cares about his partner and how he wants her to care for him just as much. He's unsure of where he stands in the relationship and what his partner's intentions are. This creates a sense of unease and uncertainty for the singer. Despite this, he's still willing to try and give her the love of his life, hoping that she'll open up her heart to him.


The repeated chorus of "Girl I care about you, I'm there for you. So why don't you care for me like I care about you" emphasizes the central theme of the song. The singer is trying to bridge the gap between his feelings and his partner's actions. The song's vulnerable and raw nature only adds to its emotional impact, making it a timeless classic in the R&B genre.
