Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mmm-mmm

You could give me chills
On a summer day, yeah
When we're laying still
But you make my heart race
Gonna keep me young
When we're old and grey
I know that time moves on
But some things don't change

I won't stop getting butterflies
I get 'em every time
I look into your eyes
You won't stop running through my mind
For the rest of both our lives
You give me butterflies
And I keep on getting
Butterflies

I still fall in love with you
Every time I see your eyes
It takes me back to the first time
I saw you smile
They told us we were young and dumb
We didn't know about love
Now look at all the things we've become

I won't stop getting butterflies
I get 'em every time
I look into your eyes
You won't stop running through my mind
For the rest of both our lives
You give me butterflies
I keep on getting (keep on getting)
Keep on getting (keep on getting)
I keep on getting (keep on getting)
Butterflies

When you walk into the room
I'm as nervous as the day I met you
I've seen that dress on you before
But every time I do
I swear it only makes me love you more

And I won't stop getting butterflies
I get 'em every time, yeah
I get 'em every time

I won't stop getting butterflies
I get 'em every time
I look into your eyes
You won't stop running through my mind
For the rest of both our lives
You give me butterflies
I keep on getting (keep on getting)
Keep on getting (keep on getting)
I keep on getting (keep on getting)
Butterflies





I keep on getting
Butterflies

Overall Meaning

The song "Butterflies" by MAX and Ali Gatie revolves around the idea of being in love and finding that person who makes everything feel special. MAX starts by saying that the person he loves can make him feel chills even in the warmest days. They can lay still, but his heart starts racing because he knows how much he loves that person. He believes that this love will keep him young and vibrant even when they grow old together. "I know that time moves on, but some things don't change."


MAX then sings about how he gets butterflies every time he looks into his lover's eyes. He knows that this feeling will never go away and he will keep getting these butterflies for the rest of their lives. He falls in love with his partner every time he sees their eyes because it reminds him of the first time he saw them smile. At first, they were young and naive about love, but now they have grown together and have become something more.


In the chorus, MAX repeats that he won't stop getting butterflies. Every time he looks into his lover's eyes, or even just thinks about them, he gets these butterflies. The second verse is similar to the first, with MAX explaining that he still gets nervous when his lover walks into the room, and how every time he sees them in a particular dress, his love for them deepens. The song ends with another resounding chorus of how he will keep on getting butterflies.


Overall, "Butterflies" is a sweet love song that captures the feeling of being in love and the rush of emotions that come with it. MAX's vocals and the production by Ali Gatie perfectly complement the lyrics and make it a great song to listen to if you are in love or just want to feel warm and fuzzy inside.

It’s amazing to Max as some of the most genuine singers out there, I mean most of his love songs are related to his wife, and he also brings her in his music videos.If that is not love then I don’t know what is.

@raeannecardinal

🤘🥰🥰aaaw..that is the sweetest thing once ever seen a man do for his wife..

@quince9372

I wanna play this song at my wedding. A slow dance with my husband with this song would be beautifully magical.

@alsaamv5390
