When You're Looking Like That
Topmodelz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Everybody's who's staring you wouldn't believe that this girl was mine
I should have thought I was wrong
When I left her for a life in pity
They say you never miss the water until it's gone
Guess I failed to love you
And you're taking it out tonight
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
I can't believe what I just gave away
Now I can't take it back
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
Wanna speed her real tight get out of this place
If only I could take a stroke
But she's out of my reach forever
So a week ago she lied next to me
So ironic how I had to lose just to see
Guess I failed to love you
And you're taking it out tonight
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
I can't believe what I just gave away
Now I can't take it back
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
I don't wanna get lost
I don't wanna live my life without you
Am I supposed to leave you now?
When you're looking like that
The song "When You're Looking Like That" by Topmodelz (single mix) is a heart-wrenching love ballad about a man who realizes too late the value of his former lover. The lyrics paint the picture of an unforgettable woman, five foot ten with "bambi eyes" and a catsuit. The singer regrets his decision to leave her for a life of self-pity, and the song is dripping with remorse as he admits that he "failed to love" her.
The chorus of the song shows the singer's struggle with his decision to leave. He doesn't want to get lost or live his life without her. When he sees her looking like she does, he can't believe what he's given away, but he can't take it back. He questions whether he should leave her now that he realizes the extent of his regret.
The song's melody is upbeat and danceable, but the lyrics are full of heartache and regret. The juxtaposition of the two creates a powerful emotional impact. The song is a powerful reminder to value those we love before it's too late.
