Overall Meaning

[Intro]
Yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Yah-yah-yah


[Verse 1]
It's something about the way you move
I can't put my finger on it, yeah
You say you ain't got nothing to prove
Baby, come my way and let me do you right


[Pre-Chorus]
I know I'm young, but I'm ready, oh
You took a chance, oh, and just let go
'Cause you make me feel like I could be driving, this love ain't normal


[Chorus]
I, I won't lose my mind, yeah
I can't keep my eyes off you, my-my-my, yeah
My-my, oh, yeah
I won't lose my mind, yeah, yeah


[Verse 2]
I'm in love with the way you talk
I don't even think you notice
You got me staring at your phone
Might be going a little loco


[Pre-Chorus]
I know I'm young, but I'm ready, oh (Oh no, oh no)
You took a chance, oh, and just let go
'Cause you make me feel like I could be driving, this love ain't normal

I, I won't lose my mind, yeah
I can't keep my eyes off you, my-my-my, yeah
My-my, oh, yeah
I won't lose my mind, yeah, yeah

You make me feel like, oh-oh
I could drive this love all night, yeah-yeah
You make me feel like, oh-oh
I could drive this love all night


[Chorus]

I can't keep my eyes off you, my-my-my, yeah
My-my, oh, yeah
I won't lose my mind, yeah, yeah

Line by Line Meaning

I can't take it when you leave
I feel a sense of emptiness and longing when you're not around


That shit lasts longer than a week
My feelings for you are not fleeting and temporary, they endure for a significant amount of time


Wondering next time when we'll meet
I am eagerly anticipating our next rendezvous and wondering when it will happen


It's like everything is incomplete
My life and emotions are unfulfilled and incomplete without you


It's like my heart goes on repeat
My heart keeps reliving the experience of being with you and wanting more


Thinking 'bout you like an athlete
I am constantly thinking about you and your presence in my life in the same way an athlete obsesses over their sport


In my head, you're my centerpiece
You hold a central and indispensable place in my thoughts and desires


Can't deny you give me energy
Your presence in my life gives me a sense of motivation and drive


You're the only one who gets to me
Out of everyone in my life, you are the only one who truly understands and affects me


I can't get you off my memory
You are constantly on my mind and I can't forget about you


Can we spend some time and take it slow?
I want to savor and enjoy our time together and not rush things


I don't want no one else to know
I want our relationship to be private and just between us


When I'm with you, I'm in control
I feel empowered and confident when I am with you


But when you leave, I lose it all
When you're not around, all sense of control and stability is lost
