Creation shows me what to do
I'm dancing on the floor with you And when you touch my hand
The music tells me what to feel
I like you now
But is it real by the time we say goodnight
I'll know if this is right
And I feel you (you) coming through my veins.
Am I into you (you) or is it the music to blame?
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
Cause the way you got your body movin' got me confusin'
And I can't tell if it's the beat or sparks
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
You know I wanna believe that we're a masterpiece
But sometimes it's hard to tell in the dark
Who owns my heart
The room is full
But all I see is the way
Your eyes just blaze through me
Like fire in the dark
We're like living art
And it hits me
Like a tidal wave
Are you feeling me
Or is the music to blame
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
Cause the way you got your body movin' got me confusin'
And I can't tell if it's the beat or sparks
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
You know I wanna believe that we're a masterpiece
But sometimes it's hard to tell in the dark
Who owns my heart
So come on, baby
Keep provoking me
Keep on roping me
Like a rodeo
Baby, pull me close
Come on
Here we go
Here we go
Here we go
And it hits me
Like a tidal wave
Are you feeling me
Or is the music to blame
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
Cause the way you got your body movin' got me confusin'
And I can't tell if it's the beat or sparks
Who owns my heart
Is it love or is it art
You know I wanna believe that we're a masterpiece
But sometimes it's hard to tell in the dark
Who owns my heart
The song "On My Own" by Miley Cyrus features lyrics that are relatable to anyone who's been torn between love and the hypnotic power of music. It is about a person who's in a state of confusion trying to figure out whether the attraction they feel towards someone is genuine love or merely a result of the music's beat. Throughout the song, the singer acknowledges that the music has the power to control their actions and feelings on the dance floor with a partner, but they're not sure whether the feelings of lust and passion are real or not.
Miley compares the experience to art, acknowledging that sometimes it's hard to tell what is genuine and what isn't when it comes to matters of the heart. The lyrics are a testament to the power of music, and how it can evoke strong emotions and desires within us. The singer admits that they are unsure whether their connection to their dance partner is due to the music's hypnotic effect or if there really is something meaningful there.
Overall, the song is an exploration of love, attraction, and the blurry lines that blur between the two. It's about the way music can inspire and enhance feelings of love but also leave us questioning just what our true feelings actually are.
