Something About You
Mark Diamond Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If you're gonna leave
Than don't come back
I don't need you anyway
But if you ever decide
To change your mind
I take you back every time

There's something about you
In the way you look at me
A love that I can't lose
The kind that never sleeps
And there's something about you

And all the silly words
That leave my mouth
I still say them anyway
Like a wrong way bird
That won't fly south
I may never find my way

There's something about you
In the way you look at me
A love that I can't lose
The kind that never sleeps
There's something about you
In the way you grind your teeth
When your nervous
So nervous
You still worry about me
There's something about you
About you
There's something about you

And when I get on
A big airplane
Oh I always think of you
I guess you'll always be
My lift off baby
Everytime I leave the ground

There's something about you
In the way you look at me
A love that I can't lose
It's the kind that never sleeps
Oh there's something about you
In the way you grind your teeth
When your nervous
So nervous
You still worry about me
There's something about




There's something about you
There's something

Overall Meaning

"Something About You" by Mark Diamond is a heartfelt song that explores the complexities of love and longing. In the first verse, the lyrics express a mix of determination and vulnerability. The singer acknowledges that if their partner decides to leave, they don't need them anymore. However, they also admit that if the partner changes their mind, they would take them back without hesitation. This reflects the emotional conflict the singer experiences when it comes to their feelings for the person they are addressing.


The chorus emphasizes the captivating nature of the person the singer is singing about. There is something about the way this person looks at them that holds a special kind of love. It is a love that seems unbreakable and ever-present. The intensity of this connection is symbolized by the phrase "the kind that never sleeps," suggesting a love that remains even in the quietest moments. The repetition of "there's something about you" emphasizes the indescribable magnetic pull the person has over the singer.


Moving on to the second verse, the lyrics delve into the vulnerability of the singer's words and actions. Despite knowing the foolishness of their words, the singer still says them anyway because they can't help it. It's like a bird flying in the wrong direction, unable to find its way back. This metaphor explores the singer's struggle to express themselves authentically and find their way in their relationship.


The bridge of the song brings another dimension to the lyrics, showcasing how deeply rooted this person is in the singer's life. Boarding an airplane triggers thoughts of the person they love. The person is considered their "lift-off baby," signifying that they are the reason the singer feels buoyant and inspired. Despite physical distance, this person still has a profound impact on the singer's emotions.


Overall, "Something About You" captures the enchantment and emotional entanglement one experiences when in love. The lyrics depict a love that is powerful and enduring, even in the face of uncertainty and distance.
