Say You Do
Sigala Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When you say you love me to me, don't leave me, na, na, na
Now I got that feeling you without me will break my heart
'Cause the sunlight's in my eyes when you're out of sight
You could've seen me shine, I'll tell you one more time, oh, oh

If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, do what you say you do
If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, love me like you say you do

Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Do you love me?
Love me like you say you do
Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Then you need to, love me like you say you do
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, love me like you say you do
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Now you got me feeling bad, I'm slipping far away from you
And you're doing all the things I said that you should do
But it only lasts so long like the setting sun
So under these blue skies, tell you one more time

If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, do what you say you do
If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, love me like you say you do

Love me like you say you do
You gotta love me like you say you do, say you do, say you do

Holla, holla, tell you what I want, yeah
Gotta, gotta love me like you should, yeah
Holla, holla, tell you what I need, yeah, gotta
Love me like you say you do

If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, do what you say you do
If you love me, love me like you say you do
Then you need to, love me like you say you do

Doo-doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Do you love me?
Love me like you say you do
Doo-doo-doo-doo




Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo
Then you need to, love me like you say you do

The chorus repeats the message of the song, emphasizing that action must follow words if a relationship is to be successful. The verses describe how the singer's partner is currently acting in a way that supports their words, but hints at a fear that this behavior may not last.

Overall, the song is a plea for authenticity and commitment in relationships. It is a reminder that it is not enough to simply say the right things - action and genuine love are also crucial components.
