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.

absolutely one of the most beautiful songs....just one of those songs you want to hear when you love that special somebody and you're willing to give up everything for him/her

This song is amazing! Dave is definately one of the most talented song writers out there today...and this song is a perfect example. I think its awesome the way Dave praises women and sex in a positive and pure way (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.) Everytime i hear this song I close my eyes and get taken away...

DMB is untouchable!! The acoustic version w/ Tim will give anyone goosebumps!! To me, this song is about how deeply infatuation can take over your soul. And make you want to do anything to and for someone you adore!!

I agree w/everyone who said this song is so pure. Its just him or a guy confessing his love in an innocent way. He wants to show her how good he can be to her and how everything will be alright when they are together no matter what is going on in the world. He's saying love is all you need and if you have that then it everything else will work out. This song also is a great chill song. It just can make u sit and not think about anything else for 8 minutes... or 20...haha whether its live or not. Such great lyrics, what an awesome song..not just dave but the whole band is incredible

This is a great song. Great lyrics in general. I love how DMB always makes me feel and actually think. Whenever I want to write yet I'm kindof blah, I'll listen to DMB and have so many ideas. DMB is a true inspiration. This song has great music to it, as well. I love the feeling this song gives me. This song makes me wish I had someone special in my life.

Crush is a beautiful love song, but I think there's also some insecurity. It's when you know that you like/love the person, and you think they might like/love you back but you're not sure yet. You can especially see this with lines like "I want you so badly." He talks about doing things, which almost seem one-sided, like he's made all these plans for them and their future. He'll do all things for her, if she'll let him. "Just let me always."

On Storytellers he said that he wrote it thinking about his now wife Ashley. At a Dave solo show last fall he said he took the inspiration for the beginning word of the song (crazy) from Willie Nelson's song "Crazy" that Patsy Cline made famous.

Crush is the song that really got me hooked into DMB. I remember listening to this song over and over again in the fall of 1998. I love it. I have heard it 10 times in concert now- at full band, Dave and Tim, and Dave solo shows and each time was amazing.

I heard the VH1 Storytellers with Tim Reynolds and every time I listen to it, it just blows me away!!!
He sais it was about "the fun part of love, the worship of women" that's for sure, but I think it's more about the worship of "his woman"!
He sais his girlfriend (I'd rather say his wife) was around when he wrote it! She's a great source of inspiration!

This is such a sweet and beautiful song. My favorite line:

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

I think this means that he wants to talk to her, and learn everything about her. He wants to drink all of her thoughts and emotions. And when he says he "won't spill a drop," that means her words won't be wasted on him.

It could also mean that he wants to just look at her, because she's so lovely. He wants to drink her beauty. And he won't "spill" her beauty, meaning he won't forget any of it.

Chipper1048 and krisstie, it's not about one-sided love, or about a stalker. Near the end he says "So much, you have given love..." (The lyrics above are wong, he doesn't say "given up.") So he's singing about a woman who loves him back.

This song can only be best experienced when you are experienced. driving late at night, windows down, chineese eyes and the street lights echoing off the moons bright. perfect chill/smoking song.
