Strange
Vanshock Vs Paul & Luke Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been trying to be where you are,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
Unseen
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
You'd be so perfect with me,
But you just can't see,
You turn every head but you don't see me
I'll put a spell on you,
You fall asleep,
When I put a spell on you,
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me
Yeah
Yeah
Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first,
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes,
But I know that waiting is all you can do,
Sometimes
I'll put a spell on you,
You fall asleep,
When I put a spell on you,
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me
I'll put a spell on you,
You fall asleep,
When I put a spell on you,
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see,
And you'll realize that you love me
The lyrics to Vanshock vs. Paul And Luke's song Strange tell the story of someone watching another person's world from a distance, feeling drawn to them but unable to connect with them. The person is secretly falling apart, but to the other person they are strange and beautiful. The singer thinks that the other person would be perfect with them, but they are not noticed, even though they turn every head. The singer expresses their desire to put a spell on the other person to make them fall in love with them.
The song speaks to the universal longing for connection and the frustration that can come with feeling invisible to the person we are drawn to. The singer is struggling with unrequited love and the pain of watching someone they desire from afar. They are fantasizing about putting a spell on the other person, hoping to make them see how perfect they could be together.
The repeated line "I'll put a spell on you" is a powerful and haunting image that underscores the urgency and desperation of the singer's desire. Ultimately, the song is about the gap between what we want and what we can have, and the hope that maybe, someday, our desires will be realized.
Line by Line Meaning
I've been watching your world from afar,
I've been observing your daily life from a distance,
I've been trying to be where you are,
I've been attempting to physically be in your presence,
And I've been secretly falling apart,
I've been privately experiencing emotional strife,
Unseen
No one has noticed my inner struggles.
To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,
In my eyes, you appear unique and attractive,
You'd be so perfect with me,
We would be a perfect match,
But you just can't see,
You are not aware of this potential relationship,
You turn every head but you don't see me
You captivate everyone's attention except mine.
I'll put a spell on you,
I'll use a figurative spell to make you fall for me,
You fall asleep,
You'll become drawn to me,
When I put a spell on you,
When I work my manipulative magic on you,
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see,
Upon waking, the first thing you'll see is me,
And you'll realize that you love me
You'll finally understand that you have feelings for me.
Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first,
Occasionally the least desirable event occurs first,
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes,
Frequently, the initial hope or wish does not become a reality,
But I know that waiting is all you can do,
I understand that patience is the only option presently available,
I'll put a spell on you,
I'll use my influence to make you fall in love,
You fall asleep,
You'll become smitten with me,
When I put a spell on you,
When I manipulate you through trickery,
And when I wake you I'll be the first thing you see,
Upon awakening, you'll immediately see me,
And you'll realize that you love me
You'll finally comprehend that you have deep affection for me.
