Goosebumps
Ross Harris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Goosebumps, you can give me Goosebumps, you can give me

Your making me feel something I can’t comprehend
Blood rushing to my head
You’ve bought me too my knees and I don’t understand
Hairs standing on my neck

like riding on a tidal wave
higher than the empire state
Something that I can’t explain
Nothing makes me feel the way you do

You give me goosebumps baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps baby
When you say my name
(x2)

So would you mind If I send shivers down your spine?
Give back the butterflies
I wanna make your heart race at the speed of light -
All the way to paradise

You give me goosebumps baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps baby
When you say my name
(x2)
When say my my name (x4)

Goosebumps, you can give me Goosebumps, you can give me

It’s like riding on a tidal wave
higher than the empire state
Something that I can’t explain
How you make me feel the way you do

You give me goosebumps baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps baby
When you say my name




(x2)
When you say my name (x4)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ross Harris's song "Goosebumps" describe the overwhelming feeling of experiencing intense emotions for someone special. The first verse presents the ambiguity and complexity of the feeling, which is beyond the comprehension of the singer. The line "You've bought me too my knees, and I don't understand" implies the overpowering effect of the person in question. The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "You give me goosebumps" as a testimony of the euphoric sensation the person evokes in the singer. The second verse expresses the singer's desire to reciprocate the feeling by giving "shivers down their spine" and "butterflies in their stomach."


Throughout the song, the usage of "Goosebumps" is a metaphor for the overwhelming emotion that the person brings. The roller-coaster emotions are described through comparisons to "riding a tidal wave" and reaching "the speed of light - all the way to paradise." The lyrics convey an almost intoxicated state of being hopelessly in love, which spells the end of the singer's resistance to the emotional attachment.

You're making me feel something I can't comprehend
Blood rushing to my head
You've brought me to my knees and I don't understand
Hair standing on my neck (goosebumps)
Like riding on a tidal wave, higher than an empire state
Something that I can't explain, how you make me feel the way you do


You give me goosebumps, baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps, baby
When you say my name


So would you mind if I send shivers down your spine
Give back the butterflies (goosebumps)
I wanna make your heart race at the speed of light
Hold away the paradise


You give me goosebumps, baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps, baby
When you say my name
You give me goosebumps, baby
Whenever you look at me
You give me goosebumps baby
When you say my name (4x)
Oh when you say my name,
Goosebumps, oh you give me goosebumps
Oh you give me, ooh

You give me goosebumps, baby
When you say my name (4x)
Oh so can you say my name?
