I'm Into You Lyrics
I gotta feeling we are gonna win
our bodies make it perfect
and your eyes can make me swim
then again everything seems new
I can barely hold my tongue
to say the least I'm into you
and our eyes
are saying more than we can talk and warmer than our bedroom sport
and your thighs are kisses from the outside, girl thats all i need
I'll take you down the other road
to breathe in something more
I'll find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for
*
I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo
the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododododo dododododo dodo
when I press an ear up to your breast
I can hear the rhythm start
it's hard to tell our beats apart
so I hope your listening right now
cause I can barely hold my tongue
the shit we do could warm the sun
at night
twisted in a melting fall and sleeping with the scratching claws
and your words
let me know your feeling me and seeing all the things I see
I'll take it down the other road
to breathe in something more
I'll find it harder to ignore
the things I want you for
I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo
the rhythm was all
I needed to hear
a woman can treat my heart
dododododo dododododo dodo
I know you don't want
I love you can sing
the music was at the start
dododododo dododododo dodo
the rhythm was all
I needed to hear

Am I an idiot for thinking that it's supposed to be
"I know you don't want A love you can sing"?
Iunno, it just makes more sense to me. Like, she doesn't want a love that can be put down in words. Whatever.
I never understood that lyric either. Yours does make more sense but I can't find it that way anywhere else. I think these lyrics just get propagated through to the other sites. I'm with you, though. This is how I'm playing it from now on.

Same here. Cheers.

I have to agree, with a slight change. I hear:

To me that dovetails with the opening line of "I gotta feeling we are gonna win" since he finishes the stanza with "the music was there at the start." To my mind, he's saying that he understands that she can only truly love if certain elements are present. She doesn't want a love that she can't sing [a poetic interpretation of being able to immerse and express bliss and flow], but in their case the music...

This is why he has a feeling that they are going to win.
Just a thought!
@Alliiee The sentence is a bit weird but I suppose it's correct. I just read an interview where he says:" It was about that little bit before you can really say, “I love you”. But you can say, “I'm into you"…" http://thethousands.com.au/melbourne/hear/an-interview-with-chet-faker

So, this song is probably about they're having sex. From the man's point of view.
It does appear to be about sex, but I think it's more about the emotional aspect behind the sex.
"I know you don't want A love you can't sing The music was at the start"
My guess about this part is that the relationship isn't what it used to be, she used to sing to the music early on in the relationship but the music is gone now, hence why the song focuses more on the sex.
"The rhythm was all I needed to hear A woman can treat my heart"
To me this implies that the love they used to feel that is gone now was enough to at least partially heal the emotional pain in his heart (my understanding of Chet is that he suffers great emotional pain/depression. I know the feeling.)
This brings me to these lines:
"When I press an ear up to your breast I can hear the rhythm start It's hard to tell our beats apart
So I hope you're listening right now 'Cause I can barely hold my tongue The shit we do could warm the sun"
He knows she's also in pain (hard to tell our beats apart) and can barely hold his tongue from begging her to give that emotional connection another chance (the shit we do could warm the sun) possible completely heal each other.
Perhaps I'm over analysing it, maybe I'm projecting my own loneliness on the sad music I listen to, but that's my interpretation.
