(Wanna know, wanna know)
Yeah I've been running but it caught me somehow (somehow, somehow)
The rule was never fall in love, I did it anyway
(Anyway, anyway)
You made my heart beat keep pumping
Why it ain't turn it up so loud
(So loud, so loud)
'Cause if I don't fear the water
And the night don't fear the thief
It's just you and me together
Here we are, we are, we are, we are, we are
Here we are, we are, we found euphoria
Here we are, we are, we are
And you're going from inside
Like the dot is in your eyes
And I see it for the first time
Here we are, we are, we found euphoria
I really know the way and thought I could get in and out
(In and out, in and out)
She said relax, you gonna be here for a while
But I threw caution to the wind and did it anyway
(Anyway, anyway)
And the truth is I'm learning to loving
And I ain't gonna turn it down
If I don't fear the water
And the night don't fear the thief
Once the music sets you over
Here we are, we are, we are, we are, we are
Here we are, we are, we are
And you're going from inside
Like the dot is in your eyes
And I see it for the first time
Here we are, we are, we found euphoria
Here we are, we are, we are
We are, we are
Here we are, we are
We found euphoria
And you're going from inside
Like the dot is in your eyes
And I see it for the first time
Here we are, we are, we found euphoria
The lyrics to Usher feat. Swedish House Mafia's song "Euphoria" reflect the feeling of being caught up in a new relationship and experiencing the highs and excitement of falling in love. Usher sings "We in a dodging to a feeling I don't wanna know," indicating that he's trying to avoid getting too deeply involved in his newfound love. However, he admits that he's already fallen for this person, going against his own rule of never falling in love. The chorus speaks of the power of music and love to bring people together, and the feeling of euphoria that comes with it. Usher sings, "If I don't fear the water and the night don't fear the thief, once the music sets you over, here we are, we found euphoria"
The lyrics can also be interpreted as a metaphor for the journey of life. The line "I really know the way and thought I could get in and out" suggests that we all have a plan for our lives, but sometimes things don't go as planned. We're forced to throw caution to the wind and take risks, but these risks can often lead us to something new and exciting. The chorus can be seen as a reminder to fully embrace life and all its possibilities, even if it scares us.
