Crush
Mari Iijima Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I like you a lot
But I'm not sure if it's meant to be or not
Yeah, you can say
Say we're together
But no one's said a word about the word forever
It's just a crush I'm feelin'
And my whole world's upside-down
It's just a crush, I know it
Don't know where we're goin'
But I'm likin' where we are right now
It's too soon to be too much
Not ready to call it love
It's just a crush
You might be
Might be the one
But let's not rush it, let's not jump the gun
Sometimes love is just an illusion
Let's make it clear, just so there's no confusion
It's just a crush I'm feelin'
Walkin' on the ceilin'
And my whole world's upside-down
It's just a crush, I know it
Don't know where we're goin'
But I'm likin' where we are right now
It's too soon to be too much
Not ready to call it love
It's just a crush
The song "Crush" by Mari Iijima explores the feeling of having a crush on someone and the uncertainty that comes with it. The lyrics express the singer's admiration for someone, but also the fear of committing too soon or misreading a situation. The opening lines, "I like you, I like you a lot, but I'm not sure if it's meant to be or not", encapsulate the mixed emotions that come with having a crush.
The chorus of the song focuses on the euphoric feeling of having a crush, with the lyrics "It's just a crush I'm feeling, walking on the ceiling, and my whole world's upside down." The singer acknowledges that they are enjoying the feeling of being infatuated, despite not knowing where the relationship might lead. The verse, "You might be, might be the one, but let's not rush it, let's not jump the gun" shows the singer's hesitation to commit too quickly or make assumptions about the future.
The song ultimately delivers a message of taking things slow, enjoying the feeling of a crush, and being honest about intentions. The singer acknowledges that it's "too soon to be too much" and they are "not ready to call it love," and instead of trying to define the relationship, they choose to simply enjoy the moment.
