Hold You to It
Dance into Love: Chris Young's 'Hold You to It' Meaning
Lyrics
Girl, you wear the hell out of that dress
Complimenting the girl on how attractive she looks in her dress.
I can hardly catch my breath
Expressing breathlessness at the girl's stunning appearance.
When I see you look this way
Noting the impact of seeing the girl in a certain way.
And I've been sitting here all night long
Conveying the anticipation of the night and the girl's favorite song.
Waiting on your favorite song
Waiting patiently for the anticipated song to play.
It's finally starting to play
Excitement as the long-awaited song finally begins.
Baby, do you feel that bass line pumpin'
Asking if the girl feels the bass line and kick drum in the music.
Tell me, can you hear that kick drum thumpin' on the 2 and 4
Checking if she can sense the rhythm on beats 2 and 4.
Let's get on that floor
Suggesting they hit the dance floor together.
Love to hear the slide of the guitar ringin'
Expressing enjoyment of the guitar's sliding sound.
Melody's saying everything I'm thinking
Noting that the melody echoes his thoughts and feelings.
And I'm starting to
Indicating a realization or change in mindset.
To think you think it too
Suspecting that the girl may share his thoughts.
I love the way you're movin'
Admiring the girl's dance moves.
Feel the back-beat groovin'
Feeling the rhythmic groove of the music.
I wanna hold you to it
Expressing a desire to commit to the moment with the girl.
Damn, when you start to sway your hips
Reacting to the girl's hip movements and thinking about kissing.
I start thinkin' about your lips
Associating dance with thoughts about kissing.
On mine and mine on them
Imagining the mutual exchange of kisses.
And I love dancin' with you so much
Expressing a strong enjoyment of dancing with the girl.
I ask the DJ to turn it up
Requesting the DJ to increase the music volume.
And keep playin' that song again,
Wanting the DJ to continue playing the same song repeatedly.
And again and again
Emphasizing the desire for song repetition.
Baby, do you feel that bass line pumpin'
Repeating the earlier question about feeling the bass and kick drum.
Tell me, can you hear that kick drum thumpin' on the 2 and 4
Reiterating the question about the rhythm on beats 2 and 4.
Let's get on that floor
Encouraging the idea of dancing together.
Love to hear the slide of the guitar ringin'
Expressing enjoyment of the guitar's sliding sound again.
Melody's saying everything I'm thinking
Noting that the melody continues to mirror his thoughts.
And I'm starting to
Repeating the earlier indication of a mindset change.
To think you think it too
Suspecting shared thoughts with the girl once more.
I love the way you're movin'
Reiterating admiration for the girl's dance moves.
Feel the back-beat groovin'
Feeling the rhythmic groove again.
I wanna hold you to it
Expressing a renewed desire to commit to the moment.
Baby, do you feel that bass line pumpin'
Asking once more about feeling the bass and kick drum.
Tell me, can you hear that kick drum thumpin' on the 2 and 4
Checking again if she senses the rhythm on beats 2 and 4.
Let's get on that floor
Reiterating the suggestion to hit the dance floor together.
Love to hear the slide of the guitar ringin'
Expressing continued enjoyment of the guitar's sliding sound.
Melody's saying everything I'm thinking
Noting that the melody consistently reflects his thoughts.
And I'm starting to
Repeating the earlier indication of a mindset change.
To think you think it too
Suspecting shared thoughts with the girl once more.
I love the way you're movin'
Reiterating admiration for the girl's dance moves.
Feel the back-beat groovin'
Feeling the rhythmic groove once again.
I wanna hold you to it
Expressing a final desire to commit to
