Do It Again
Will.I.Am Ft. White Boy Dan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I feel the pain and it makes me crawl
And in a storm I can let them fall
All of my tears, I see them hit the floor
Cause I was deeply in love with you
You pierced my heart, like bullets do
And now your words are coming over me
Falling slowly
Pieces of my heart
Letting go of
You
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again.
I hear the song we used to listen to
It's in my head, how can I change the tune?
When my whole world is ripped in two
I need to start on something new
Get my life back on track again
Figure out who I really am
Go do those things that I used to do
Before you hit me
I was bulletproof
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again
Falling slowly
Pieces of my heart
Letting go of
You
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again
Take me back to the start
Remember how it used to be
Hand in hand, you and me
I would do it again
The song "Do It Again" by Will.I.Am Ft. White Boy Dan is about heartbreak and moving on from a past relationship. The first verse describes the pain and emotional turmoil the singer feels when it rains, symbolizing his/her sadness and tears. The lyrics then reveal that the source of this pain is a past love, who broke the singer's heart and left him/her feeling vulnerable and exposed. Despite the pain, the singer longs to go back to when things were good between them and start over.
The chorus of the song repeats the plea to go back to the beginning and remember the good times when they were together. The second verse emphasizes the need to move forward and find oneself again after this heartbreak. The singer wants to rediscover who he/she is and rediscover the things that once brought joy and fulfillment. The final repetition of the chorus reinforces the idea that despite everything, the singer would still do it all over again, suggesting that perhaps the love they shared was worth the pain of its loss.
