The Heart Wants What It Wants Lyrics

Lyric discussion by MelancholicWallflower 

This song is about being in love with someone who is toxic and not knowing whether to stay or leave. Like the artist, Selena Gomez, her mind is telling her that he’s bad for her but her heart is saying “stay” She’s describing an emotional pull towards this person. Her significant other is the one guy that she’s drawn to. And no matter what her family and friends tell her
