The Chainsmokers feat. Emily Warren Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I won't even mention the fact that you're never sober
I never know which side I'm gonna get tonight
And the closer we get, the less I think I know you
But you're just my type
The kind that only calls me late at night
You can't decide if you'll be yours or mine
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
And I'm foolin' myself, 'cause I know that I'll never change ya
But you told me the truth, so I guess I can't really blame ya
No, you're not the one, but you're all I want, yeah
People say I'll get hurt, I don't know what they're so afraid of
But you're just my type
The kind that only calls me late at night
You can't decide if you'll be yours or mine
I hate to say it, but you're just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
But you're just my type
The kind that only calls me late at night
You can't decide if you'll be yours or mine
I hate to say it, but you're just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Yeah, you're just my type (oh, I hate to say it, but you're)
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
Just my type
Yeah, you're just my type, yeah, yeah
My type
Oh, I hate to say it, but you're just my type
My type
Oh, I hate to say it, but you're just my type
The lyrics to The Chainsmokers' "My Type" describe a complicated relationship that is not very stable. The singer knows that their significant other is not going to stay over, and they also know that this person is not going to be sober. The singer is beginning to realize that they do not know their partner as well as they thought they did. However, the singer can't help but feel drawn to this person, even if they are not a good fit for them.
The chorus repeats the phrase "you're just my type," which could mean that the singer has a history of dating people who are not good for them. The singer seems to be aware of this, but they can't help but be attracted to this person. Despite the fact that their relationship is not stable, the singer is willing to go along with it because they feel a connection with this person that they can't explain.
Overall, the lyrics to this song explore the complexity of relationships and the idea that sometimes we are attracted to people who are not good for us. It is a relatable theme and is delivered through catchy lyrics that are sure to get stuck in your head.
