I'm In Love
Push/Pull Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm a little bit worried
Is there something I should say?
Through the window at Marty's,
They see a party's underway

Surprise, surprise
The parents aren't home
And she's the only one who'd stay
With me

Lamp shade looks like a halo
Over this girl's head
Kids in the doorway say "hello"
And someone whispers, "move on in"

Surprise, surprise
I haven't kissed her yet
And she's the only one who'd wait
For me

Yeah, ohh

I've got love in my heart
I want the feeling to start
I want the world on its knees
I'll get shivers and shakes
I'll get whatever it takes (whatever it takes)
To make believe
It's not make believe (make believe, make believe)

Oh, whoa

I'm a little bit lonely
Now that everyone's gone away
Driving home in the morning
There's nothing on the radio today

I close my eyes
And I can see her on the phone
But she's the only one who sent
Me home

Oh, oh, whoa

I've got love in my heart (yeah, love)
[and] I want the feeling to start (feeling to start)
I want the world on its knees
I'll get shivers and shakes (shakes)
I'll get whatever it takes (whatever it takes)




To make believe
It's not make believe (make believe, make believe)

Overall Meaning

The song "I'm in Love" by Push/Pull paints a vivid picture of a young man who is at a house party with the girl he loves. He is anxious and worried, wondering if there is something he should say to her. As they stand in the living room among their friends, he notices the lampshade above her head, feeling as if it is a halo that signifies her beauty. While they are alone in the living room, he hasn't mustered the courage to kiss her yet. He longs for the feeling of love to start and wants the world to be at their feet. The song comes to a close with the young man driving home alone in the morning, holding onto the memory of the girl he loves.


The lyrics of "I'm in Love" describe the typical feeling of teenage love and its uncertainties. The line "Surprise, surprise, the parents aren't home" depicts the excitement of going to a house party that one does not expect to get too rowdy, while "the lampshade looks like a halo" represents the idea that teenagers often see their love interests through rose-tinted glasses, making them seem angelic. The lyrics "I close my eyes and I can see her on the phone, but she's the only one who sent me home" shows the longing for a love that is not reciprocated.

How vast is the grace You gave
I'm free and forgiven
Your love is the safest place
The peace I will live in
Now I have eternity
And I'll sing of Your truth


Sheesh !! This is a song from the Heavens
A bunch of anointed worshippers



@evelynmendoza4009

No cederás mi Dios
Justo a mi lado, siempre has estado
Cuando estoy orgulloso, me alejo
Es Tu misericordia lo que me ha atraído

No te alejarás
No me rendiré
Sé que tu gracia ha perdonado mucho


Me llamas tuya
Cómo puede ser
En asombro de nuevo
Aquí recordando
No me rendirás

No te rechazaré, Dios
Justo a tu lado está donde quiero estar
Confía en ti con mi corazón y alma
Confiando en ti con todo

No te alejarás

No me rendiré
Sé que tu gracia ha perdonado mucho

Me llamas tuya
Cómo puede ser
En asombro de nuevo
Aquí recordando
No me rendirás
No me rendirás

Cuán grande es la gracia que diste
Soy libre y perdonado
Tu amor es el lugar más seguro
La paz en la que viviré
Ahora tengo la eternidad
Y voy a cantar de tu verdad

Y una esperanza que nunca fallará
Un amor que es tan cierto
Oh gracia sobre gracia otra vez
Siempre encontrado en ti
Por mi Jesús, nunca fallarás
Mi Jesús te estoy agarrando

Words and Music by Aodhan King, Ben Tan, Tracy Pratt & Brooke Ligertwood

VERSE 1
You will not relent my God
Right beside me You have always been
When in pride I’ve pushed away
It’s Your mercy that has pulled me in

CHORUS
You won’t walk away
Won’t give me up
I know Your grace has forgiven much

You call me Yours
How can it be
In awe again
Here remembering
You won’t give me up

VERSE 2
I will not refuse You God
Right beside You is where I wanna be
Trust You with my heart and soul
Trusting You with everything

BRIDGE
How vast is the grace You gave
I’m free and forgiven
Your love is the safest place
The peace I will live in
Now I have eternity
And I’ll sing of Your truth

And a hope that will never fail
A love that is so true
Oh grace upon grace again
Forever found in You
For my Jesus You’ll never fail
My Jesus I’m holding onto You

When he sang, "My Jesus, You'll never fail" I felt that. He really never did.

@andrewcailberkhausen9757

When I’ve felt most alone, it turns out he’s been the closest, carrying me.
