What She Wants
Dancing in Desire: A R I Z O N A's Melodic Journey to Self-Love
Lyrics
She likes the boys who can dance, and she likes musicians
She is attracted to guys who can dance and musicians.
Signed pictures of 'em all, hanging there by her bedroom shelf
Her room is adorned with signed pictures of musicians.
She just wants to be like the girls on the television
She aspires to emulate the girls depicted on television.
'Cause no one ever told her, it was okay to love yourself
No one has conveyed to her that it's acceptable to love herself.
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Encouragement to her heart as the lyrics emphasize that it's her show and others won't be the star.
Be still, beating heart
-'Cause this is her show
-And you'll never be the star
-'Cause she falls in love every night
She falls in love frequently without knowing the names of those she falls for, and it's not her fault that she desires what she does.
Don't even know your name
-And no, it's fine
-You know and then we cross by her eyes
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
-She falls in love every night
Reiteration that it's not her fault that she wants what she wants, even if she doesn't fully understand love.
And she don't even know what love is like
-She been dancing in the dark throughout her life
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
-She sings her favorite songs, does her makeup in the bathroom
Describes her routine of singing, doing makeup, dancing, and leaving a lasting impression with her lipstick.
She dances in the mirror, lays her dresses out on the bed
-She'll leave her lipstick on you like a tattoo
-So when you try to wash it off, you'll remember that you can't forget
-Oh-oh-oh-oh
Reiteration of the idea that this is her show, and others won't take the spotlight.
Be still, beating heart, oh
-'Cause this is her show
-And you'll never be the star
-'Cause she falls in love every night
Repeat of the theme that she falls in love nightly without knowing names, and it's not her fault for wanting what she does.
Don't even know your name
-And no, it's fine
-You know and then we cross by her eyes
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
-She falls in love every night
Emphasizes that she doesn't understand what love is but acknowledges it's not her fault for desiring certain things.
But she don't even know what love is like
-She been dancing in the dark throughout her life
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
-Ho! Oh, oh, oh
Chorus highlighting that it's not her fault for wanting what she wants.
Oh, oh, oh
-Oh, woah, oh
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants, yeah
-It's not her fault that she wants what she wants
Reiteration that it's not her fault for desiring what she wants.
