In Too Deep
why don't we Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Used to be scared of the ocean
'Cause I didn't know how to swim
I took one sip of your potion
Now I'm just divin' right in

I heard your siren's call, it was beautiful
I am drowning, but please don't save me
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living

I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh

Treasure chest full of your diamonds
I don't mind staying down here
Thought by now I would be dyin'
But your love gives me all my air

I heard your siren's call, it was beautiful
I am drowning, but please don't save me

I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living

I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
I'm in too deep

I heard your sirens call, it was beautiful

I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living

I'm in too deep
I never thought that you could be
A underwater symphony, I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm in too deep
Can't touch the bottom with my feet
Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living

I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
I'm in too deep
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh




Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
I'm in too deep

Line by Line Meaning

Used to be scared of the ocean
There was a time when I was afraid of unknown experiences


'Cause I didn't know how to swim
I didn't have the skills or confidence to face new challenges


I took one sip of your potion
You introduced me to pleasures I'd never known before


Now I'm just divin' right in
Now I'm fully engaged and embracing every moment


I heard your siren's call, it was beautiful
You lured me in with your irresistible charm and allure


I am drowning, God, please don't save me
I am consumed by this experience and wouldn't want to be rescued from it


I'm in too deep
I've gone further than I ever intended to and I can't turn back


Can't touch the bottom with my feet
I'm out of my depth and don't have control over the situation


Don't know what you did to me, I can't breathe but I'm living
I'm suffocating because of this overwhelming experience, but I'm still alive and present in it


Ah ooh-ah-ooh-ooh
Vocalizations that add emphasis and emotion to the song


Treasure chest full of your diamonds
I'm surrounded by riches and beauty because of this experience


I don't mind staying down here
I'm willing to stay in this situation, even if it's uncomfortable or risky


Thought by now I would be dyin'
I didn't expect to thrive in a situation like this


But your love gives me all my air
Your support and affection keep me going through this challenge


I never thought you could be
I never expected to experience this kind of joy and fulfillment


A underwater symphony
This experience is beautiful and harmonious, like music

@Gabi_l

I'm in too deep
Depression has a hold on my feet
I can feel it
The end is neee-aaar

The flowers were blooming
The birds were singing
Now the only sound I hear
Is the beat of my tears...

OH. I'm in too deep
I am rushing to the surface
Without a single breath
Trying to run from the fears...

But,I'm in too deep
Darkness has a grip on my soul...
There is no light for me...
I am in too deep....
