Blue Jeans
RAC Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blue jeans, white shirt
Walked into the room, you know you made my eyes burn
It was like James Dean, for sure
You're so fresh to death and sick as ca-cancer
You were sorta punk rock, I grew up on hip hop
But you fit me better than my favorite sweater, and I know
That love is mean (oh oh) and love hurts (oh oh)
But I still remember that day we met in December, oh baby

I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you'll remember (oh baby) say you'll remember, oh baby ooh
I will love you 'til the end of time

Big dreams, gangsta
Said you had to leave to start your life over
I was like "no please, stay here"
We don't need no money, we can make it all work
But he headed out on Sunday, said he'd come home Monday
I stayed up waitin', anticipatin' and pacin' but he was
Chasing (oh oh) paper (oh oh)
Caught up in the game, that was the last I heard

I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you'll remember (oh baby) say you'll remember, oh baby ooh
I will love you 'til the end of time

You went out every night
And baby that's alright
I told you that no matter what you did, I'd be by your side
'Cause I'ma ride or die
Whether you fail or fly
Well, shit, at least you tried
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night
We were dancing all night

I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more
Than those bitches before




Say you'll remember (oh baby) say you'll remember, oh baby ooh
I will love you 'til the end of time

You went out every night
And baby that's alright
I told you that no matter what you did I'd be by your side
Cause Ima ride or die
Whether you fail or fly
Well shit, at least you tried
But when you walked out that door, a piece of me died
I told you I wanted more-but that not what I had in mind
I just want it like before
We were dancin' all night
Then they took you away- stole you out of my life
You just need to remember

I Will love you till the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that your mine
Baby can you see through the tears?
Love you more
Than those bitches before
Say you'll remember, oh baby, say you'll remember oh baby ooh
I will love you till the end of time

@markfromct2

Still listening in 2022. Who is here? 2023?

@seandepoppe6716

2023 I didn't realize this song was that old but that explains why It's I felt a draw to it I have heard it all those years ago. And today when I listened it brought up old feelings. ❤

@leonard81

Fantastico.... sa di estate...mare...sale...libertà...

@AdrianValenzuela

RAC remix is the best. I like how it is the only remix that contrasts the original's slow tempo. This is upbeat. Other remixes try to match the ethereal feeling but Lana got that covered!

@dougdonelson9471

Well said.

@187Dethklok

It actually is still at the original 118 bpm.. syncopated synthesizers and snapping snares give the track a bright lively feel . Very clever stuff . Like you said , take the track somewhere else without loosing any sense musically.

@isaiasjacccarcalbocarando6591

Esta canción me encanta mucho más qué la original, es increíble la voz de Lana
