well you know there ain't no doubt
when the feeling finds you out
you know you can try to run
i tell you it still will come

when you feel your body shake
trip and fall you can't walk straight
baby then you know it's done
you can feel your heart is stung

you're the one that i saw
you're the one that i want

well you can try to keep it down
try not to let the words come out
but i tell you it's no use
in your eyes they see right through

if you're going way too hard
if you're feeling way too much
but inside you can't stop
desire she eats you up

you're the one that i saw
you're the one that i want

    I hate how people assume that every sleater Kinney song is about being gay or that corin Tucker is singing about being in love with a girl or even Carrie brownstein herself. This song specifically is very general about the terms and the gender it's being reffered to. In any case is about being in love in general. Not one single gender is signaled out in this song. It's just a great song about the feelings of being in love for the first time. When I first heard the intro to this song and that little guitar line that kinda spirals and the whole album in general, I knew the potential of sleater Kinney and now looking back at them, they have exceeded my expectations and anyone elses for that matter.
