Niall Horan & Diplo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want your number tattooed on my arm in ink, I swear
'Cause when the morning comes, I know you won't be there
Every time I turn around, you disappear
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
What's your name?
Every time I turn around, you disappear
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got, I got love)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love, love)
Mm
Mm
Nice to meet ya
What's your name?
Every time I turn around, you disappear
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got, I got love)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love for you)
(I got love, love)
The song "Nice to Meet Ya" by Niall Horan and Diplo talks about a fleeting love or attraction that disappears as quickly as it comes. The first stanza describes the singer's admiration towards the girl--her way of talking and dressing. He wants her number tattooed on his arm, as he expresses his seriousness towards her. However, he also realizes that she won't be there in the morning, showing that their interaction is only temporary. The repeated line, "Every time I turn around, you disappear" further emphasizes the impermanence of their connection.
The chorus, "What's your name? Nice to meet ya" shows the initial introduction or encounter between the two. Despite knowing that the girl won't be around, the singer still proclaims his love towards her. The song's upbeat tempo and energetic sound add a playful tone to the lyrics, making it an enjoyable listen despite its somewhat sad premise.
Overall, "Nice to Meet Ya" portrays a momentary attraction that fades away just as fast as it begins. It shows the fleeting nature of relationships and the desire to hold onto something that is only temporary.
