I Wanna Go Down With You
Russ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wanna go down with you, baby
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna pull the trigger with you
Oh
I wanna slow dance while they're screaming
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Wanna take you with me
Oh

You are all that I need
And you are all I believe
Is everything fine?
'Cause you ain't gotta leave
I wanna go down, down, down, down, down with you

Yeah, she said love me when you're ready, not when you're lonely
I don't know myself, so there's no way you know me
But if I hold you down, then you better hold me
But if I call your bluff, then you better fold me
'Cause I can't risk it all for you
If you don't see that I'm all for you, oh

You are all that I need
And you are all I believe
Is everything fine?
'Cause you ain't gotta leave
I wanna go down, down, down, down, down with you

Oh, back up
Why is everything going backwards?
Drinking, rolling up a couple Backwoods
Every day we argue, that's a bad look
Yeah, song in the key of hope, sing it for me
Cup full of love, drink it for me
I rather deal with oh well than what if
You got me addicted off of one hit

You are all that I need
And you are all I believe
Is everything fine?




'Cause you ain't gotta leave
I wanna go down, down, down, down, down with you

This is what this generations been missing. This is music. This is poetic.

This is dedicated to one special woman who will always have my heart. I don't know when the love developed but births a good place to start. I think she was sprinkled down from heaven on a shooting star. I miss her when she's near and i get closer to her when we're miles apart. She pumps the blood through a faint beating heart. I thank God for her life because she's all I need or want.
ILY ❤️ Queen
