You Don't Know
StoneBridge Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tell me why is this feeling so right
'Cause I've been waiting
Waiting to hold you all night

Now we're together
I don't want this feeling to ever end
Make this last forever
I don't want this feeling to ever end

You don't know
What you do to me
You don't know
You just don't know

When we're together
Nothing in my life feels better
I want you to know this
Feelings my heart exploding

So baby, it's now or never
We'll be with each other until the end
What we have is something special
We'll be with each other until the end

You don't know
What you do to me




You don't know
You just don't know

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to StoneBridge's song "You Don't Know" describe the intense feeling of love and how it overwhelms the singer.

The singer wants to make this moment last forever and expresses how this feeling is making their heart explode. The lyrics portray the excitement and happiness of love and the desire to hold onto the moment and the feeling for as long as possible.


The repetition of the phrase "You don't know" adds emphasis to the fact that the love interest may not know the extent of the singer's feelings. The singer feels that the love interest has a profound effect on them, and they want the love interest to understand that. The chorus's repetition adds an intensity to the song, emphasizing the singer's emotions and how their feelings are unable to be expressed fully. The song's upbeat tempo and the catchy beat adds to the overall joyful feeling of the song, making it the perfect song to dance to.

I first heard this song on a plane on my way to egypt....I fell in love with it, but I had no idea who sang it since it was on an international radio dance radio station. For weeks after, I was distraught again until I heard it again at the Virgin Megastore on a random dance CD in San Francisco...I fell in love all over again, texted the name and artist to myself, and just fall in love all the time with this simple beat! :)

It's interesting that you were talking about the past of this song, but your comment is also 12 years old!

@avalondeluxe

@scorpionkobra

@Sara Nasr And that's amazing that you still keep this account over 12 years :))

It's funny how this kind of thing works. You almost forget about the song entirely.. give up hope. Then it pops back into your life like a sign. Happy listening! This song is still killer.

@julianotrujillo2856

This song makes me so happy I start getting overwhelmed with joy! If love had a song this is what it would sing

@LRCVWDude

Damn good track; really wish stuff like this charted more often in the US. Song of summer 08 for at least one Yank, no questions asked :)

@ANTMKia
