Beautiful Girl
Sean Kingston & Jonathan Rotem Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do you dirt
When they say it's over
See it started at the park
Used to chill after dark
Oh when you took my heart
That's when we fell apart
Cause we both thought
That love lasts forever (lasts forever)
They say we're too young
To get ourselves sprung
Oh we didn't care
We made it very clear
And they also said
That we couldn't last together (last together)
See it's very define girl,
one of a kind
But you mash up my mind
You have to get declined
Oh Lord
My baby is driving me crazy
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do you dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over
It was back in '99
Watchin' movies all the time
Oh when I went away
For doin' my first crime
And I never thought
That we was gonna see each other (see each other)
And then I came out
Mami moved me down South
Oh I'm with my girl
Who I thought was my world
It came out to be
That she wasn't the girl for me (girl for me)
See it's very define girl,
one of a kind
But you mash up my mind
You have to get declined
Oh Lord
My baby is driving me crazy
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
When you say it's over
Damn all these beautiful girls
They only wanna do you dirt
They'll have you suicidal, suicidal
When they say it's over
Now we're fussin'
And now we're fightin'
Please tell me why
I'm feelin' slighted
And I don't know
How to make it better (make it better)
You're datin' other guys
You're tellin' me lies
Oh I can't believe
What I'm seein' with my eyes
I'm losin' my mind
And I don't think it's clever (think it's clever)
You're way too beautiful girl
That's why it'll never work
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal, suicidal
The song "Beautiful Girl" by Sean Kingston and Jonathan Rotem is a lamentation of an unrequited love. The song is about a girl who is too beautiful, but does not share the same feelings as the singer. He is obsessed with her beauty and cannot deal with the fact that she does not want him. He is emotional, and the girl makes him suicidal. The song starts with the introduction of the two artists’ names, JR and Sean Kingston.
The song reminisces about the beginning of the relationship, when they both thought their love would last forever. However, their love did not last, and she left him, which resulted in him being emotionally unstable. The song is very straightforward, conveying the singer's feelings, which are full of sorrow and pain.
One interesting fact about the song is that it was written by Sean Kingston himself, along with Jonathan Rotem. The music video for the song was shot in Jamaica, Sean Kingston's home country. Another fact about the song is that it was inspired by the 1961 hit song "Stand by Me" by Ben E. King. The song was one of Sean Kingston's biggest hits, peaking at number one in several countries. The song was also featured in the movie "Step Up 2: The Streets."
Line by Line Meaning
You're way too beautiful girl
You are very attractive
That's why it'll never work
However, we can never have a successfully lasting relationship because beauty is not enough to sustain it
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal
But because of your beauty, I am falling apart, driving me to contemplate self harm or suicide
When you say it's over
Especially when you decide to end the relationship
Damn all these beautiful girls
All girls with beauty are a curse.
They only wanna do you dirt
They will take advantage of you or harm you in some way just because you are attracted to them.
See it started at the park
This is how the relationship started, at the park
Used to chill after dark
We would hang out often when the night falls
Oh when you took my heart
This is when I realised that I loved you dearly
That's when we fell apart
Unfortunately, that's when we broke up
Cause we both thought
This happened because both of us believed
That love lasts forever (lasts forever)
That love is eternal and it's going to last forever
They say we're too young
Our age is being criticised without a genuine explanation
To get ourselves sprung
Critics argue that we are too young to be together
Oh we didn't care
However, we didn't pay any attention to what critics had to say
We made it very clear
We made it clear that we were in love
And they also said
Critics also said that
That we couldn't last together (last together)
That we will not be together for long
See it's very define girl,
Your beauty and personality is very exceptional
one of a kind
Distinct and unique from anyone else
But you mash up my mind
You confuse me with your decisions and actions
You have to get declined
I have to say no to you
Oh Lord
I am feeling overwhelmed
My baby is driving me crazy
You are causing me emotional disturbance
It was back in '99
This happened in 1999
Watchin' movies all the time
We used to watch movies together regularly
Oh when I went away
However, I had to leave you
For doin' my first crime
I left because I committed my first crime
And I never thought
I never anticipated
That we was gonna see each other (see each other)
We were never going to meet again
And then I came out
But, I was released
Mami moved me down South
My mother moved me to the southern part of the US
Oh I'm with my girl
However, I found a girl.
Who I thought was my world
I believed that she was everything I needed
It came out to be
Eventually, it became clear that
That she wasn't the girl for me (girl for me)
She wasn't the right fit for me as my partner.
Now we're fussin'
Now we are unhappy and bickering a lot
And now we're fightin'
And we are now fighting often
Please tell me why
Can you please explain why
I'm feelin' slighted
I feel disrespected
And I don't know
But I am not sure
How to make it better (make it better)
How to fix this problem or make things better
You're datin' other guys
You are seeing other guys
You're tellin' me lies
You are also lying to me
Oh I can't believe
I am having a hard time believing
What I'm seein' with my eyes
What I am observing with intent
I'm losin' my mind
This is making me feel crazy
And I don't think it's clever (think it's clever)
I do not believe this is the smartest thing to do
You'll have me suicidal, suicidal, suicidal
You will drive me to suicidal thoughts and actions
