I Think I Kinda You Know – Just for a Moment Mashup
Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I fell in love
With a boy and I can't tell if I fell out
Now we can't play pretend
And I'm scared to talk to my best friend

Should I stay or let you go?
Will you love me when the curtains close?
Is it just a part we're playin'?
'Cause it don't feel like we're fakin'

I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know
When we're underneath the lights
My heart's no longer broken
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know
For a moment, just for a moment
A moment in love

I think I kinda, you know (Just for a moment)
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know (Just for a moment)
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know you know, you know

Sometimes you know exactly what to say
Then you open your mouth
And the words go away
Don't want you to wonder
Or to doubt or guess
So let me tell you clearly
What I'm tryna express

It's just three little words
Yeah, it's not a big deal
It's not like I can help
Feelin' all that I feel
And by now I'm sure you're thinkin'
It's so obvious but just in case it's not
What I'm sayin' is this

When we're singin' side-by-side
There's so much left unspoken
For a moment (O oh) , just for a moment
A moment in love

(Just for a moment) I think I kinda, you know
(Just for a moment) I think I kinda, you know
(But is a moment enough?) Like
The way that we flow like the way that we go
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know
I think I kinda, you know





For a moment, just for a moment

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "I Think I Kinda You Know – Just for a Moment Mashup" by Olivia Rodrigo and Joshua Bassett explore the confusion and uncertainty that comes with falling in and out of love. The song talks about the fear of addressing these feelings with a close friend, unsure of how it may affect their relationship. The singer is torn between staying in the situation or letting go, unsure if their love will last beyond the facade they are putting on. They question whether the love they share is genuine or just a role they are playing. Despite the doubts, there are moments when they feel a deep connection, especially when they are together under the lights. It is in these moments that the singer's heart feels whole again, even if it's just temporary.


The second part of the song shifts the focus to the struggle of expressing emotions. The singer admits that sometimes they have the perfect words in mind, but as soon as they open their mouth, the words disappear. They don't want their friend to doubt or guess their feelings, so they decide to be clear about what they are trying to convey. The singer expresses that their love is not a big deal, but it's undeniable and uncontrollable. They acknowledge that the other person may already be aware of their feelings, but they still want to make it explicit. The song concludes with the notion that in moments of singing side-by-side, there is a lot left unsaid, and it's in these moments that they feel a fleeting but powerful love.
