Me Touch Myself
Prince Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I do thank God that U were born
And I picture us on furry floors
And I like it so me touch myself
I prayed that I could have U all 2 myself
So U came 4 me and no one else
Now my heart beats wild 4 U I melt
Hallelujah
CHORUS:
Me touch myself, me touch myself
Until U and I can truly melt
Every morning me touch myself
This power that U have is unexplainable
If I could live without U honey - debatable
I'm not used 2 this feeling of unstable
Come and get me before me touch myself
CHORUS
Like ice I will become until U come 4 me
No one ever will warm me, I'll be cold as can be
I need the pictures only U and I can see
I need U so me touch myself
I bleed 4 U and me touch myself
U planted the seed, now me touch myself
It's a shame indeed, now me touch myself
Me touch myself
CHORUS
(CHORUS)
I.. I.. I will finally free
Come and get me and U'll see
I'll be like others never be
Ooh wee, baby, U make me touch myself
Oh baby, me touch myself
Me touch myself {repeat 2 fade}

He prays that he could have her all to himself and nobody else, and his heart beats wildly for her. The power she has over him is unexplainable, and he can't imagine living without her. The feeling of being unstable is new to him. He needs his lover so much that he touches himself, and no one else can warm him up like she can.

The song expresses Prince's willingness to be vulnerable and exposed to his lover, asking her to come and get him before he touches himself.

As I awake this lonely mornin'
As I wake up alone this morning
I do thank God that U were born
I am grateful for the existence of my lover
And I picture us on furry floors
I imagine us being intimate on a soft floor
And I like it so me touch myself
This thought arouses me and I pleasure myself
I prayed that I could have U all 2 myself
I desired to have my lover exclusively
So U came 4 me and no one else
My lover chose to be with me exclusively
Now my heart beats wild 4 U I melt
My love for you is intense and overwhelming
I want U so me touch myself
I desire you so much that I pleasure myself
Hallelujah
Expressing extreme pleasure and excitement
CHORUS: Me touch myself, me touch myself Until U and I can truly melt Every morning me touch myself
I pleasure myself every day until I can be physically intimate with my lover
This power that U have is unexplainable
The influence my lover has over me is indescribable
If I could live without U honey - debatable
I am uncertain if I could live without my lover
I'm not used 2 this feeling of unstable
I am not accustomed to feeling emotionally unstable
Come and get me before me touch myself
Come be with me before I pleasure myself
Like ice I will become until U come 4 me
Without my lover, my affection will freeze over
No one ever will warm me, I'll be cold as can be
Without my lover, I will be emotionally cold and distant
I need the pictures only U and I can see
I desire to create intimate memories with my lover
I need U so me touch myself
I crave my lover so much that I pleasure myself
I bleed 4 U and me touch myself
My love for my lover is so intense that it physically pains me
U planted the seed, now me touch myself
My lover aroused me and now I am pleasuring myself
It's a shame indeed, now me touch myself
Although ashamed, I am still pleasure myself
I.. I.. I will finally free
I am expressing my freedom to pleasure myself
Come and get me and U'll see
Be with me and witness my desire and love for you
I'll be like others never be
I will be uniquely devoted and affectionate towards my lover
Ooh wee, baby, U make me touch myself

Oh baby, me touch myself
I pleasure myself due to my love for my lover
