Ah, crush, ah

I see ya blowin' me a kiss
It doesn't take a scientist
To understand what's going on baby
If you see something in my eye
Let's not over analyze
Don't go too deep with it baby

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll play loose
Run like we have a day with destiny

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la

It's raising my adrenaline
You're banging on a heart of tin
Please don't make too much of it baby
You say the word "forevermore"
That's not what I'm looking for
All I can commit to is "maybe"

So let it be what it'll be
Don't make a fuss and get crazy over you and me
Here's what I'll do
I'll pay loose
Run like we have a day with destiny

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la

Vanilla skies (vanilla skies)
White picket fences in your eyes
A vision of you and me

It's just a little crush (crush)
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing (crush)
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do depends on you
Sha-la-la-la
Not like I faint every time we touch
It's just some little thing
Not like everything I do
Depends on you

    General Comment:She's also aware that the type of guy she's got a crush for, is not the one she has in mind for a shared future. So, her reason speaks louder than her emotions but she's enjoying the moment(adrenaline type of adict with a cold heart)... a dangereous game.
    A french adjective for a girl of that sort is "allumeuse"; she turns on the water-heater but doesn't really want to take a shower !!!

    General Comment:i think its just about having a bit of fun...theres an attraction but it hasnt been explored emotionally its in the early stages..having fun. i totally believe this when i listen but it also makes me think that the crush is developing.
    my favourite line is:
    'it's raisin' my adrenaline
    you're bangin' on a heart of tin
    please don't make too much of it baby'
    here it captures the excitement of the current state of the relationship/crush but i get the feeling there is something in that heart of tin that could spark..there is potential but its being suppressed and acknowledging this could either develop the relationship further or make it deteriorate. all we can see from the other person is they are interested, we do not know how much or how little.

    General Comment:i always find it to be too much of a denial. She keeps saying it's just a crush, but it sounds like she's just trying to hide how serious it is.

    At least, that's what my romantic mind thinks.

    General Comment:Actually, it sounds like she's playing a guy. It makes sense.

    "White picket fences in your eyes" "All I can commit to is maybe" "please don't make too much of it baby" "that's not what I"m lookin for."

    It's really about a woman who's just out to have a good time and someone has fallen for her and wants to marry her, but she's not like every other girl who will faint at the first touch of love.
    She just wants to mess around!

    General Comment:maybe i'm overanalyzing, but, when i listen to this song, i get the feeling she's singing it to herself like she's trying to convince herself she doesn't have feelings for a guy when she really does. does anyone else think that?

    General Comment:This is song played at Apple Bees when I was sitting with my crush. He looked at me and seriously (i hadn't told him but he HAS to know) he said to me "It's just a little crush". Needless to say I screamed water please...with LOTS of ice. Cause whoa!!! It's not just a crush...and when we have touched I do wanna faint-thank you very much!!!

    General Comment:I love how this song has a catchy rhythm, and the way she sighs the lyrics is entrancing. Although the meaning is pretty obvious, it's about a guy who's trying to get too serious in a relationship when she's not sure she wants to commit to him. The only question I have is, "What does it mean when she says he's 'banging on a heart of tin'?" Maybe implying that she's like the tinman and doesn't have romantic feelings for him?

    General Comment:I just heard this song on the radio, for the first time in probably 10 years or so. I still knew the tune exactly, which is a testament to its catchiness. It seems to be about a woman who is not entirely comfortable with the depth of her feelings in the relationship. Great tune, makes you wonder more about an artist when they make such a good song but are never heard from again.

    General Comment:I agree with I Heart Thursday on the fact that it's meaning is obvious. The beat is very catchy. I personally love it...it makes me think of summer and the beach.
