I've Got A Crush On You
Max Greger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I've got you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I said to myself, this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know down well
I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear,
Don't you know, you fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
Cause I've got you under my skin.

I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats, how it yells in my ear,
Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win
Why not use your mentality, get up, wake up to reality?
And each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin




Cause I've got you under my skin.
And I like you under my skin.

The lyrics of Max Greger's song "I've Got A Crush On You" express deep feelings of infatuation and desire for someone who has captured the singer's heart and mind. The repeated line "I've got you under my skin" suggests that this person has become deeply ingrained in the singer's emotions and thoughts, symbolizing a strong emotional attachment that is hard to shake off. The imagery of being under someone's skin conveys a sense of intimacy and connection that is difficult to break.


The lyrics also delve into the internal struggle the singer faces in trying to resist their feelings for this person. Despite their initial attempts to push away these emotions and convince themselves that the affair will not end well, they find themselves unable to resist the pull of their attraction. The mention of sacrificing anything for the sake of having this person near highlights the intensity of their desire and the willingness to go to great lengths to be with them.


The warning voice that the singer hears in the night represents their inner doubts and fears about pursuing this relationship. The repeated refrain of "Don't you know, you fool, ain't no chance to win" reflects a sense of self-awareness about the potential risks and obstacles in their path. The internal conflict between following their heart and heeding rational advice to wake up to reality adds a layer of complexity to the lyrics, as the singer grapples with conflicting emotions and decisions.


Ultimately, the lyrics convey a sense of surrender to the overpowering feelings of love and desire. The admission that the thought of this person makes the singer pause and reconsider their resistance suggests a deep emotional connection that transcends logic and reason. The final affirmation that the singer likes having this person under their skin reinforces the idea of being utterly captivated and enamored by their presence, despite the inner turmoil and challenges they may face.

Damn. She deserves an Oscar for making me think that she was actually upset that someone told her that Santa wasn’t real at the age of like 25.

@Unicysis

The strangest thing about Santa is that he only comes once a year, but the rest of the year he keeps to his own company. That’s why his size never changes. Jesus on the other hand comes EVERY day, takes the struggles of people like Emma Watson and turns them into the wonderful, graceful women that they are. And it comes from the spirit. When it comes to bearing gifts, Santa doesn’t even come close

She was not 25 but 20. But the two ages are the same so no worry.
