Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fallin' for you, I can't keep away
Are you listening? I want you to stay

Before you go, I want you to know that
I'm down
Down for you
For you
For you
For you

Are you down for me? Down for me
Are you down for me? Down for me
Are you down for me?
You still down for me?

Fall into you, you're like a maze
Can you hear me? You're stuck in your ways

Before you go, I want you to know that
I'm down
Down for you
For you
For you
For you

Are you down for me? Down for me
Are you down for me? Down for me




Are you down for me?
You still down for me?

Oh my god, I remember I used to listen to this senior year in high school. I annoyed the shit out of my tablemates because I would never stfu singing this song. Especially the beginning. Things were so much more simple back then.
