Lyrics
Nah, nah that could never be us
Emphasis on the impossibility of a certain scenario happening between the speaker and someone else.
Nah, nah that could never be us
-Nah, nah that could never be us
-Nah, nah that could never be, never be, never be
-I know I shouldn't think this way about you
The speaker acknowledges an attraction but expresses a desire not to pressure the other person. Still, the speaker wants to be closer.
But you got something
-It's like the world stops when I'm around you
-I'ma tell you one thing
-That I don't wanna put no pressure on ya
-But I wanna take you home
-I know we talk too much when we shouldn't
Admission of talking too much but a mutual desire for closeness, with a hint of electricity when they touch.
But we know we want to
-Electric when we touch and I know you feel it too
-I've been thinking 'bout waking up next to you
Thoughts of waking up next to the person, followed by a repeated assertion that it could never be them.
I've been thinking 'bout, nah, nah that could never be us
-I've been thinking 'bout waking up next to you
-I've been thinking 'bout, nah, nah that could never be us
-I'm waking up, waking up, waking up, thinking 'bout you
Continued thoughts of waking up and thinking about the person, repeating the idea that it could never be them.
Waking up, waking up, waking up, thinking 'bout (nah, nah that could never be us)
-Nah, nah that could never be us
-Nah, nah that could never be us
-Nah, nah that could never be us
-Nah, nah that could never be us
-I'm waking up, waking up, waking up, thinking 'bout you
-Waking up, waking up, waking up, thinking 'bout (nah, nah that could never be us)
-Who's gonna be the one to make the first move?
Wondering about making the first move, being cautious about giving the wrong impression, yet still wanting to take the person home.
'Cause that's my motive
-Am I being too obvious around you?
-Wonder if they've noticed
-That I don't wanna give the wrong impression
-But I wanna take you home
-I know we talk too much when we shouldn't
Acknowledgment of talking too much but a shared desire and a sense of electricity when they touch.
But we know we want to
-Electric when we touch and I know you feel it too
-I've been thinking 'bout waking up next to you
