I'm In Love
dB's Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What I don't understand
And I don't understand this attraction
Surprise, surprise
What's been going on
I've got
I've got no idea
Surprise, surprise
Now I'm thinking
Any way it turns out
It could turn out any way
It could be this
It could be that
It could be none of the above
Guess I don't understand
Why
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
I thought
The thought was enough
I thought I knew it all
It's over my head
But I'm still thinking
Any way it works out
You know it could work out any way
It could be bad
It could be good
It could be none of the above
Guess I don't understand
Why
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
Running away from myself
I fell into someone else
Who didn't know exactly what to think
I love
What I don't understand
But I don't understand what's been going on
Surprise, surprise
Looks like I'm in love
Any way it works out
It could work out any way
It could be this
It could be that
It could be none of the above
Guess I don't understand
No I don't understand
Yes I don't understand
Why
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
I'm in love
The lyrics of "I'm in Love" by dB's explore the confusion and uncertainty that come with falling in love. The singer expresses his love for what he doesn't understand, but also admits he has no idea how far to push his luck. He is surprised by his own attraction and doesn't comprehend what's been going on between him and his object of affection. He's overwhelmed by his emotions, admitting that he doesn't understand why he's in love. He thought he knew what was happening with his feelings, but realizes that it's all over his head, and he's still trying to figure it out.
The chorus of the song suggests that the outcome of his love affair is uncertain, and it could go either way, but he's still committed to it. The use of the phrase "surprise, surprise" throughout the song implies a certain level of disbelief at the singer's unexpected feelings. At the end of the song, the performer admits that he's fallen for someone who is as confused as he is, but the possibility of it working out is still there. The song deals with the sense of bewilderment that comes with love, which defies logic and rationality. It captures the feeling of being entranced and captivated by someone, regardless of whether you understand why.
