Something About You
MDO Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Something about you makes me lose control
Something about you makes me crazy baby
Something about you makes me lose my mind
Try to forget, but I'm in rewind (but I'm in rewind)

I look at you across this crowded room
Everybody's talking to you
How am I supposed to get to you
When you don't even know that I exist
Every minute feels like I was
I'm frozen in time and powerless

I want to touch you baby
Feel you beside me baby
I want your love to light my dark and lonely life

[Chorus]
Something about you makes me lose control
Something about you makes me crazy baby
I can't eat, I can't sleep
I can't live without you here with me
Something about you makes me lose my mind
Try to forget, but I'm in rewind
I can't laugh, I can't cry
Something about you makes me want to die

I feel just like I'm lost inside a dream
Everything looks so distorted
I'm walking around like I'm out of it
It's all because you've turned around around my world
I promise you this my baby
Someday your kisses are gonna be mine, girl

I want to touch you baby
Feel you beside me baby
I want your love to light my dark and lonely life

[Chorus]

Every time I look into your eyes
There's something about you
Every breath I take I realize
There's something about you

I want to touch you baby
Feel you beside me baby
I want your love to light my dark and lonely life

Something about you makes me lose control
Something about you makes me crazy baby
Something about you makes me lose my mind
Try to forget, but I'm in rewind (but I'm in rewind)

[Chorus: x2]

Something about you, baby (lose control)

(Something about makes crazy, baby)
Something about you make me lose control

I can't live without you here with me





Something about you, baby

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of MDO’s “Something About You” are about the intense desire and infatuation that the singer feels towards a woman whom he finds irresistible. He describes the overwhelming effect that she has on him, making him “lose control,” go “crazy,” and feel like he is “frozen in time and powerless.” He seems captivated by her and wishes to be with her, feeling lost without her, and his every thought consumed by her. Despite the fact that she is surrounded by people, he cannot seem to get her attention, “How am I supposed to get to you, when you don't even know that I exist?”


The singer’s longing is almost painful, and he even goes so far as to say, “Something about you makes me want to die.” He cannot forget her, and even when he tries, he finds himself “in rewind,” replaying their encounters over and over in his mind. However, the song maintains an optimistic tone, with the singer believing that one day he will have the chance to be with her, “Someday your kisses are gonna be mine, girl.”
