Take Good Care
Sasha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You say you want me
And that's a thrill
It's like I'm bungee jumping
While I'm standing still
You wash me over
Leave me out to dry
But I still got suspicions
Can you tell me why

Keep tipping over myself for you
It's like I've lost my balance
Don't know what to do
You pick me up
Then put me down
I start to lose my senses
When you're around

Take good care, care of my heart
Don't ever let me down
Take good care of my heart
If you want me to stay around

I wonder sometimes
if you care at all
You throw me up and down
like a bouncing ball

And then I see you
And I just don't care
I feel I'm ten foot tall
And I could walk on air

You say you need me
You say you care
But half the time you treat me
As if I'm not there
Then when you call me
I run to you




And I know you think it's funny
I'm afraid you do!!

Overall Meaning

In Sasha's song "Take Good Care," she expresses the doubt and fear that come with falling for someone who seems to be playing games with her heart. The first verse reveals the potential thrill of being wanted by someone, but also highlights the fear that comes with their inconsistency. The metaphor of bungee jumping conveys the excitement of the unknown, but also the underlying fear of falling or being let down. Sasha then highlights the confusion she feels when the one she loves pulls her in and then pushes her away, leaving her to feel like she's lost her balance.


The chorus serves as a plea for the other person to take care of her heart and not let her down. Sasha recognizes that she's vulnerable in this situation and can easily be hurt, so she's asking for reassurance and stability from her partner. The second verse reveals Sasha's doubts about whether her love interest truly cares about her, as they toss her around like a bouncing ball. Despite this, when they're together, Sasha feels invincible and doesn't care about the doubts anymore. The final verse reveals the complicated nature of their relationship, where Sasha is constantly running to someone who treats her as if she's not there, but nonetheless has a hold on her heart.


Overall, "Take Good Care" is a powerful ballad that captures the vulnerability and fear that come with falling in love with someone who may not feel the same way. Sasha's lyrics are emotive and reveal a lot about the dynamics of the central relationship. The song is a powerful reminder that sometimes, the best thing we can do is ask for what we need, even if it feels vulnerable and scary to do so.

You say you want me
You tell me that you want to be with me


And that's a thrill
It excites me that you want to be with me


It's like I'm bungee jumping
It feels like a rush of adrenaline and excitement


While I'm standing still
Even though I'm just staying in one place


You wash me over
Your words and actions engulf me


Leave me out to dry
But then you leave me alone and vulnerable


But I still got suspicions
I still have doubts about your feelings


Can you tell me why
Can you explain your actions and emotions?


Keep tipping over myself for you
I keep going out of balance and going too far for you


It's like I've lost my balance
I feel like I'm stumbling and falling without you


Don't know what to do
I'm at a loss on how to proceed


You pick me up
You help me get on my feet again


Then put me down
But then you let me down again


I start to lose my senses
I begin to feel disoriented and confused


When you're around
Whenever you're near me


Take good care, care of my heart
Please be gentle and thoughtful with my feelings


Don't ever let me down
Please don't disappoint or hurt me


If you want me to stay around
If you want me to continue to be with you


I wonder sometimes
Sometimes I question


if you care at all
If you actually have any feelings towards me


You throw me up and down
You treat me inconsistently


like a bouncing ball
Like a toy that you can play with and toss around


And then I see you
But then I look at you


And I just don't care
And suddenly my doubts disappear


I feel I'm ten foot tall
I feel confident, strong, and empowered


And I could walk on air
As if I'm so light that I could float


You say you need me
You tell me that you require my presence


You say you care
You tell me that you have feelings towards me


But half the time you treat me
But you consistently only treat me nicely half the time


As if I'm not there
As if I'm invisible, like I don't exist


Then when you call me
But then you reach out to me


I run to you
I immediately come to your aid


And I know you think it's funny
And I realize you find some of my actions amusing, even if unintentional


I'm afraid you do!!
It worries me that you might be playing with my emotions
