Can't Fight This Feeling
Sophie Ellis-Bextor and Junior Caldera Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Standing in a crowded room
But all I see is you
Like a spotlight follows where you are

Do you know I never want to leave your side
Desire swallows up my pride
I can't say no, I want you,
So I've got to see this through

'Cause I just can't fight this feeling
We should be lovers. We should be lovers
No I just can't fight this feeling
We should be lovers. We should be lovers
Now I just can't fight this feeling
My head is spinning. I think its winning
Now I just can't fight this feeling
And it's beating me down

Falling on you took a moment
Your kiss charged my heart
Just a touch could never be enough

Do you I know I'm overboard and can't be saved?
I pray the night time makes me brave
I have to show I want you
So I've got to get to you

'Cause I just can't fight this feeling
We should be lovers. We should be lovers
No I just can't fight this feeling
We should be lovers. We should be lovers
Now I just can't fight this feeling
My head is spinning. I think its winning
Now I just can't fight this feeling
And it's beating me down

Why don't you, why don't you,
Why don't you come to me?




Why don't you, why don't you
Why don't you come to me?

Overall Meaning

In Sophie Ellis-Bextor's song "Just Can't Fight This Feeling", she describes being completely smitten with a person in a crowded room. Her focus is solely on this person and it feels like a spotlight follows their every move. Despite wanting to resist the attraction, her desire for this person becomes overpowering and she can't help but feel like they should be together. Sophie explains that just a single touch from this person isn't enough and she's falling for them fast. She knows she's gone “overboard” and can't be saved from the feelings that are consuming her. Even though she's scared, she feels like she has to show this person that she wants them and make a move. By begging this person to come to her and admitting that she just can't fight this feeling, Sophie displays her vulnerability and her desire to pursue these strong emotions.


One interesting interpretation of the song could be that Sophie is singing about a forbidden love or a love that's not supposed to be. She may be struggling with the thought of pursuing this person, but can't help that the attraction is there. It could also be interpreted as a song about taking risks and going after what you want, even if you're scared of getting hurt.
