Going Out Of My Head
Tito Puente & India Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Over you, Over you
I want you to want me, I need you so badly
I can't think of anything but you

And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head
Over you, Over you

I see you each morning
But you just walk past me You don't even know that I exist

Goin' out of my head over you
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Night and day and night, Wrong or right

I must think of a way Into your heart
There's no reason why My being shy Should keep us apart
And I think I'm goin' out of my head
Yes, I think I'm goin' out of my head

Goin' out of my head over you
Out of my head over you Out of my head day and night
Night and day and night, Wrong or right
Night and day and night




Wrong or right, day or night
Everyday, every, every day

Overall Meaning

The song “Goin’ Out of My Head” by Tito Puente & India is a classic piece that addresses the widely relatable issue of unrequited love. The opening lines of the song consist of the singer expressing the overwhelming feeling of love for someone that they can't seem to shake off. They try to move on, but it's as if they’re losing their mind thinking about that person.


The lyrics of the song convey a melancholic mood as the singer’s inner pain is revealed in each line. They desire the person they are in love with to reciprocate their feelings, but it seems to be unattainable. The lyrics express the singer’s willingness to do anything to win the person’s love, even if it means feeling like they are losing their mind.


The line “I see you each morning but you just walk past me, you don’t even know that I exist” speaks to the pain of unrequited love, where the object of your affection doesn’t seem to notice you. The song portrays a heart-wrenching plea for love and the longing for someone who is seemingly unattainable. The repetition of “Out of my head over you” at the chorus emphasizes the singer's emotional distress and thoughts of the other person.
