What You Do to Me
We the Kings Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want to chase you around until we fall
I want to be the one you write about
I want to be the one who never lets you down
Right now I feel like I'm
Losing control
Losing control
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Your the storm, and the rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
I can make you laugh until you cry
I can tell your mood just by your eyes
I can sleep with your head on my cheek
And I could be the one you never want to leave
Right now I feel like I'm
Losing control
Losing control
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Your the storm, and the rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
And we'll both fall, we'll lose it all
We'll have each other
And we won't make the same mistake
Cause we have had it together
And we're smarter than before
We have have been through the world
And we know that there is more
When you find the one that you're looking for
Hey, hey,
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey,
You've no clue what you do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
My head is spinning cause of you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do
Your the storm, and the rain
You've got eyes like a hurricane
Hey, hey, hey, hey
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
You've no clue what you do to me
The lyrics to "What You Do To Me" by We the Kings are a love song about a person wanting to be everything to the one they love. The lyrics express the desire to be a part of the other's life in every way possible, but the singer feels like they are losing control because of their strong emotions. The line "I want to be the one who never lets you down" emphasizes the importance of reliability in relationships.
The chorus repeats the sentiment that the person being addressed has no clue what they do to the singer. Their presence alone is like a storm, and their eyes are like a hurricane- powerful and all-consuming. The lyrics suggest that the relationship is a passionate one, but it's not always easy. The line "And we'll both fall, we'll lose it all, we'll have each other" acknowledges that things may not always go smoothly, but they have each other's support and love.
The song's bridge indicates that the couple has been through difficult times together, but they have learned from their mistakes and are stronger for it. The final repetition of the chorus suggests that the love between the two is intense and all-consuming, but ultimately fulfilling.

After liking We the Kings for years, I finally see them next week in concert with She is We. I hope they sing this song that reminds me of this amazing girl.

I went to a "We the Kings" concert Feb. 4th, 2010. I heard this song and realized I was in love with my best friend, I told him immediately after the show. We just celebrated our 2 and a half year anniversary. This song was actually life changing for me. <3

Wrote a comment 3+ years ago about how after hearing this song after a WTK concert I told my best friend I was in love with him and we were together 2.5 years. Been together almost 6 years now. If you don't believe music has the ability to change your life, you aren't experiencing it fully. Hearing this song will always remind me of being 16 and turning to my girl best friend and yelling "omg I'm in love with him!" And her saying "yeah everyone this knows except you two."

I've been listening to We The Kings for 4 years and I've never heard this song. The words really hit close to home and make me think about the guy I really like. "You've got my head spinning" me when I see him.
