Do You Think
Rediscover Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Oh, you look so lovely
I'll take you to my bedroom
Where you can prove to me
That you really love me
A funny feeling
That you're gonna leave
One more look at me to ease
The suffering
This is gonna be a heartbreaker (this is gonna be)
Caught me dancing (caught me)
In your make-up (in your make-up)
Wait, wait, tell me
Before you leave
Do you think this dress (do you think this dress)
Looks good on me (looks good on me x2)
See if I care
See if I ever did
You say I'm such a loser
You say I'm such a dick
Did I ever tell you?
That you look so hot
In that mini skirt
But on me it looks
So much prettier
(so much prettier...)
This is gonna be a heartbreaker (this is gonna be)
Caught me dancing (caught me)
In your make-up (in your make-up)
Wait, wait, tell me (wait, wait, tell me)
Before you leave
Do you think this dress (do you think this dress)
Looks good on me (looks good on me)
This dress
Looks so good!
x7
This is gonna be a heartbreaker (this is gonna be)
Caught me dancing (caught me)
In your make-up (in your make-up)
Wait, wait, tell me (wait, wait, tell me)
Before you leave
Do you think this dress (do you think this dress)
Looks good on me (looks good on me)
So tell me...
Do you think this dress looks good on me?
(Do you think this dress looks good on me?) x8
(On me, on me)
The lyrics of Rediscover's song "Do You Think" are about a person who is trying to impress someone who they are in love with. They take them to a movie, then to their bedroom, hoping that they will prove to them that they really love them. However, the person has a "funny feeling" that the other person is going to leave them. As a result, they give them their new CD and ask them if they think a dress looks good on them before they leave.
The song explores the idea of wanting to be loved and accepted by someone else, and the fear of rejection that comes with it. The singer is self-conscious about their appearance and is seeking validation from their partner. They are anxious about being left alone, so they try to please their partner as much as they can, even if it means giving them their new CD or asking them if a dress looks good on them.
The repetition of the line "Do you think this dress looks good on me?" emphasizes the singer's need for validation and showcases their insecurities. The song is a heart-warming yet vulnerable portrayal of a person's desire for love and acceptance.
