Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Loosen my tie, lie down, let's fly
Every guy that passes by
(Look at her, look at her oh)
And you say that it's not right
But where does he think you are tonight?
Does he know your nasty side?
(Look at her, look at her oh)
If you want me take me home and let me use you
I know he doesn't satisfy you like I do
And does he know that there's nobody quite like you
So let me tell you all the things he never told you
(Yeah)
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
I, I, I
I, I, I
You and me let's go all night
Going so high, we fuck the sky
Come with me now, fuck that guy
(Look at her, look at her oh)
Now you flash that sexy smile
And tell me I've got to wait a while
And it makes me lose my mind
(Look at her, look at her oh)
If you want me take me home and let me use you
I know he doesn't satisfy you like I do
And does he know that there's nobody quite like you
So let me tell you all the things he never told you
(Yeah)
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
I, I, I
I, I, I
(Can't help myself no more)
I, I, I
I, I, I
I, I, I
No, I can't wait much longer
It needs to happen now
'Cause I can't spend the rest of my life chasing you around
I want to get much closer
You need to tell me how
Baby, how, how
Babe, 'cause I
I got these feelings for you
And I can't help myself no more
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I got these feelings for you
(Got these feelings for ya, got these feelings for ya)
Can't fight these feelings for you
No, I can't help myself no more
I, I, I
I, I, I
I, I, I
It's fine
The song "Feelings" by Maroon 5 is about a man who is in love with a woman who is already in a relationship with someone else. The woman tells the man to wait, but he can't control his feelings anymore and wants to be with her. The lyrics suggest that the woman is unhappy with her current partner and that the man is convinced he can make her happier than he can. The song is a plea for the woman to leave her current partner and be with the man instead.
The chorus of the song, "I got these feelings for you, and I can't help myself no more," expresses the man's overwhelming desire for the woman. He can no longer control his feelings and wants to be with her at any cost. He is willing to do whatever it takes to make her happy and satisfy her in ways that her current partner cannot.
Overall, "Feelings" is a catchy, upbeat song with lyrics that delve into the complexities of love and desire. It portrays the desperation and frustration that can arise when one person is in love with someone who is already taken.
