Kid in Love
Shawn Mendes/Musicfire.in Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I know that we just met
And maybe this is dumb
But it feels like there was something
From the moment that we touched
'Cause, it's alright, it's alright
I wanna make you mine

The way you're lightin' up the room
Caught the corner of my eye
We can both sneak out the back door
We don't have to say goodbye
'Cause, it's alright, it's alright
To waste time tonight

Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Oh, baby
If this is what it's like falling in love
Then I don't ever wanna grow up
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Oh, baby
It'd be cool if it's the two of us
But I don't ever wanna grow up

'Cause I got it all
Oh
And I got it all
But I don't ever wanna grow up

Said, your place is kinda cozy
Your 'rents are out of town
Baby, there's no pressure
But if you're down, I'm down
'Cause, it's alright, it's alright
Just start tonight

If you're feeling kinda crazy
Turn down the lights
We can take our time
Do whatever you like
It's alright, it's alright
I wanna make you mine

Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Oh, baby
If this is what it's like falling in love
Then I don't ever wanna grow up
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Maybe I'm just a kid in love
Oh, baby
It'd be fine if it's the two of us
But I don't ever wanna grow up

'Cause I got it all
Oh
And I got it all
And I don't ever wanna grow up

'Cause I got it all
Oh
And I got it all
But I don't ever wanna grow up

You make me feel like I got it all, yeah
And you make me feel like I'm just a kid in love
And you make me feel like I got it all
And you make me feel like I don't ever wanna grow up

Maybe we're just kids in love
Maybe we're just kids in love
Oh baby
If this is what it's like falling in love
Then we don't ever have to grow up
Maybe we're just kids in love
Maybe we're just kids in love
Oh baby
When we're alone and it's the two of us
I can't get enough

I've got it all, yeah
I've got it all, yeah
And I've got it, and I've got it all
And I've got it, and we've got it all




And I've got it, and I've got it all
But I don't ever wanna grow up, ooh yeah

Overall Meaning

In the lyrics to "Drunk in Love," Shawn Mendes expresses his feelings of falling in love with someone he just met. He acknowledges that it may be foolish to feel this way so early on, but he can't deny the instant connection he felt with this person from the moment they touched. He wants to make this person his, and he's willing to take risks to be with them. The lyrics also suggest a desire to stay young and free from the responsibilities that often come with growing up. Shawn sings about not wanting to let go of the feeling of being in love for the first time, and never wanting to lose the youthful joy and enthusiasm that comes along with it.


The lyrics of the song seem to speak to the experience of falling in love at a young age and feeling like you want to hold on to that feeling forever. The idea of not wanting to grow up is both freeing and terrifying at the same time, as it means not having to deal with the harsh realities of adulthood, but also not experiencing the growth and development that come along with it.


Line by Line Meaning

And I know that we just met
Despite just meeting, I feel a connection


And maybe this is dumb
It may seem foolish, but I can't ignore the feeling


But it feels like there was something
There's an unexplained attraction between us


From the moment that we touched
I felt a spark between us as soon as we made physical contact


'Cause, it's alright, it's alright
I feel confident about our connection and where it may lead


I wanna make you mine
I desire a romantic relationship with you


The way you're lightin' up the room
You have a captivating presence that caught my attention


Caught the corner of my eye
Even in a room full of people, my focus remains on you


We can both sneak out the back door
We can leave discreetly and continue our time together elsewhere


We don't have to say goodbye
We can prolong our time together without having to part


To waste time tonight
I don't mind spending time with you without any specific plans


Maybe I'm just a kid in love
I acknowledge that my feelings may be naive and inexperienced


If this is what it's like falling in love
If this feeling is true love, then I never want to lose it


Then I don't ever wanna grow up

It'd be cool if it's the two of us
A relationship between just us two would be ideal


Said, your place is kinda cozy
Your living space has a comfortable and intimate vibe


Your 'rents are out of town
The absence of your parents allows us to have more alone time


Baby, there's no pressure
I don't want you to feel pressured into anything


But if you're down, I'm down
If you're interested, I am as well


Just start tonight
We can begin whatever we are feeling tonight without hesitation


If you're feeling kinda crazy
If you're in the mood for something wild or out of the ordinary


Turn down the lights
We can create a more intimate atmosphere by dimming the lights


Do whatever you like
We can do whatever comes to mind or whatever makes us happy


I wanna make you mine
I am emotionally invested in having a romantic relationship with you


Maybe we're just kids in love
Perhaps we are still inexperienced in love and relationships


Then we don't ever have to grow up
Our love can remain pure and innocent, and we don't have to be weighed down by grown-up responsibilities


When we're alone and it's the two of us
The moments we share privately are the most special to me


I can't get enough
I never tire of spending time with you and being in love with you


And you make me feel like I got it all
I feel complete and fulfilled when I am with you


And you make me feel like I'm just a kid in love
Being in love with you reminds me of what young, innocent love feels like


And we've got it all
Our love holds a great value and is all we need
