Lyrics for Crush as interpreted by flaquito

Crush Lyrics
Crazy, how it feels tonight.
Crazy, how you make it all alright, love.

Crush me,
With those things you do
And I'll do for you
Anything, too, oh...

Sitting, smoking, feeling high...

And in this moment
Oh, it feels so right...

Lovely lady, I am at your feet,
Oh, God, I want you so badly.
And I wonder this:
Could tomorrow be so wonderous
As you lay sleeping?

Let's go drive 'til morning comes,
Watch the sunrise and fill our souls up,
And drink some wine 'till we get drunk.
Yeah...

It's crazy, I'm thinking,
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
And is this real, or am I dreaming?

Lovely lady, let me drink you, please.
Won't spill a drop, no, I promise you
Lying under this spell you cast on me
Each moment the more I love you.

Crush me, come on
Oh, yeah...

It's crazy, I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
And here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
Is this real at all, or am I dreaming?

Lovely lady, I will treat you sweetly
Adore you, I mean...
You Crush me,
And it's times like these
When I think that feeling
I know how I love you.

Come on, come on, baby...

It's crazy, I'm thinking
Just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
To each other we'll be facing
My love, my love,
We'll beat back the pain we've found
You know I mean to tell you
All the things I've been thinking
Deep inside, my friend.
Each moment the more I love you.

Crush me, come on, baby...

So much you have given up
That I would give you back, again and again.
Oh, my love, many now hold you,
But please, please, just let me, always.

I was busting out all my older DMB cd's these past few days getting ready for the show in PHX on May 6th. This song to me is about crushing hard on a girl. I have a huge crush on a girl right now and it sucks not knowing how she feels. I kind of feel like that is what he is saying in this song. I actually asked her to go to the concert with me and if she can get her shift covered she is in. It would be wonderful to take her with me to my favorite artist of all-time. This girl is amazing and I can't get her out of my head. Like the lyric says,

"Lovely lady, I am at your feet,
Oh, God, I want you so badly.
And I wonder this:
Could tomorrow be so wonderous
As you lay sleeping?"

I do want her badly and it's killing me inside. I almost wonder if it would be better to just not go after her and wonder what it than to get a rejection... She is amazing! She is my "crush".

I think it's about being in complete love, and not believing its actually real.. I'm wayyy off, most likely.


But nevertheless, this is a great song, by a great band.

Favorite lines:
"It's crazy, I'm thinking
Just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down?
To each other we'll be facing
My love, my love,
We'll beat back the pain we've found
You know I mean to tell you
All the things I've been thinking
Deep inside, my friend.
Each moment the more I love you.

I saw a video of Dave playing this song somewhere (acoustic) and he made a joke out of saying that how his wife said to him "okay that motherf***** song better be about me" only he said she said it in a nicer way without the curse word!! Its definently a good song...hope she was happy....i sure would've been!!

its funny reading some of these comments, especially one who mentioned its a song that makes u want to be desperately in love...i couldn't agree more.

and i remember when this song applied to me and i sang these lyrics to the one i loved. best feeling in the world to be able to mean these lyrics. i guess thats why i've been called a hopeless romantic....in love w/ love. -_-

"Lovely lady, let me drink you, please.
Won't spill a drop, no, I promise you."

I always thought this line meant oral sex.

This song is about a person who can not get enough of the person they are in love with...like wake up up because when you are asleep next to me you are still too far kind of love. This is my song between me and my ex and it is still one of the best "love songs" ever written.

dave matthews is me and my boyfriends band, and crush is our song, so of course when dave came to our area last week had amazing seats, and i was seriously hoping that they would play this song, well as soon as the band came out i hard the low bass and felt tears in my eyes this song is amazing that it can have this much emotion

This song has quite some meaning to me.
This guy and I were liking each other more and more everyday. and one day he told me about this song and that it was like.. his song for me. and he played it for me. and we've been together since. Yay. [ :
It seems fairly easy to understand. A guy is so in love with a girl he can't focus on anything but that. Like being drunk and high.. And he's pretty much confessing his love to this girl. Don't you think?

its about wild sex disguised by a slower tempo "deep inside my friend" i mean i know it sounds sweet and innocent but he is really talking about pounding one of his girlfriends after a drunken drive home from the bar "drive til we get drunk"

not the first DMB song I ever heard, but the first one I really listened to. my now-boyfriend got me into them, and this was the first one I downloaded and listened to. since then, it's basically been my favorite song. i love it.

the best written dave song in my opinion... i tend to disagree with most though.. i like the studio version of the song better... before these crowded streets... i think that it helps build the song up better from beginning to the end... the end is such a perfect way to end a song... and i don't think that dave puts enough emphasis on it in the live version... either way... i heard it live in nashville... and it was unbelievable.. dave matthews writing ability is so superior to any artist in this era, it's ridiculous... when he finally retires... first of all i will cry, but more importantly he should be remembered as one of the best song writers of all time,/

This is "our" song. My hubby-to-be introduced me to Dave in the first months of our dating... He crushed me ... in the best way I could ever imagine! and then last year he took me to see DMB live... Crushed me all over again!

A love song in the purest sense!

"My love, my love, / We'll beat back the pain we've found / You know I mean to tell you / All the things I've been thinking / Deep inside, my friend. / So much you have given up / That I would give you back, again and again. / Oh, my love, many now hold you, / But please, please, just let me, always."

a song about love and lust...
this is a perfect example about what happen in mind of a boy when he fall in love with a girl. i love the instrumental part, especially with tim reynolds on the guitar...
