Me & the Rhythm
Selena Gomez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh, the rhythm takes you over
Takes you to a different place
A different space
Ooh, the smoke is getting closer
I can feel our young blood race
Through cityscapes

And everybody wants to be touched
Everybody wants to get some
But don't you play a song about love
When I move my body
I don't have to talk about none
Let the chemicals do its stuff
'Til the energy is too much

Yeah, all I need
Is the rhythm, me and the rhythm
Nothing between
Yeah, the rhythm, me and the rhythm

And I know, I know, I know
I can't fight it
I won't, I won't, I won't
Deny it
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I'd be lying
If I said I didn't need
Yeah, the rhythm, me and the rhythm

Ooh, I start to feel it now
Feeling like I'm truly free
I'm free in me
Ooh, the heat's a common ground
No matter what's your history
Be free with me, oh

And everybody wants to be touched
Everybody wants to get some
But don't you play a song about love
When I move my body
I don't have to talk about none
Let the chemicals do its stuff
'Til the energy is too much

Yeah, all I need
Is the rhythm, me and the rhythm
Nothing between
Yeah, the rhythm, me and the rhythm

And I know, I know, I know
I can't fight it
I won't, I won't, I won't
Deny it
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I'd be lying
If I said I didn't need
Yeah, the rhythm
Me and the rhythm

If you feel like you're the spark
Then come out of the dark
If you feel like you're the spark
Then come out of the dark
If you feel like you're the spark
Then come out of the dark
If you feel like you're the spark
Then come out of the dark

Yeah, all I need
Is the rhythm, me and the rhythm
Nothing between
Yeah, the rhythm, me and the rhythm
And I know, I know, I know
I can't fight it
I won't, I won't, I won't
Deny it
Oh no, oh no, oh no
I'd be lying
If I said I didn't need




Yeah, the rhythm
Me and the rhythm

Overall Meaning

The song starts with "the rhythm taking you over" and transporting you to a different place, a different space where the "smoke is getting closer" and "young blood races through cityscapes." Music is a way to let loose and to let go, bringing people together with a common ground, regardless of any personal history.


The lyrics explain how everyone wants to be touched and feel alive, but sometimes it's better to enjoy the moment rather than speaking about love. It's the rhythm and the music that makes the body move and do its stuff, with a feeling of pure energy and bliss. The bridge emphasizes the need for the rhythm and how one can't fight it but should embrace it.


The song is a celebration of life and enjoying the moment with the power of music. It encourages people to come out of the dark and into the light, to embrace the spark and enjoy the rhythm that life has to offer.
