Crush
Michele Lea Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see ya blowin' me a kiss
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby
If you see something in my eye
Let's not over-analyze
Don't go too deep with it baby (baby)
So it'll be, what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Not like we have a date with destiny
It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do, depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la
It's raising my adrenaline
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby
Say the word "forever more"
That's not what I'm looking for
All I can commit to is "maybe"
So it'll be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me (crazy over you and me)
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Not like we have a date with destiny (Ooh ooh)
It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la
Vanilla skies
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me
It's just (aah) a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just (aah) some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do (everything I do) depends on you
Sha-la-la-la (ah hey yeah yeah)
Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la (oh babe not like everything I do depends on you)
Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la (ah hey yeah yeah)
Sha-la-la-la
The lyrics to Michele Lea's song Crush explore the concept of a crush and the various emotions that come with it. The singer acknowledges the attraction between her and the person she has a crush on, but also recognizes the importance of not overthinking it or putting too much pressure on the situation. She doesn't want to commit to anything too serious, instead choosing to play things loosely and see where things go without getting too invested.
The chorus repeats the idea that it's just a little crush, not something that consumes the singer's every thought and action. She has other things going on in her life and this crush is not the be-all and end-all. The bridge introduces a dreamy element, with references to vanilla skies and white picket fences, painting a picture of what could be but ultimately emphasizing that it's just a fleeting feeling.
Overall, the song communicates the message of enjoying the moment and not putting too much pressure on a crush or potential relationship. It's a light and playful take on a subject that can often feel overwhelming and all-consuming.
