You Wreck Me Lyrics

Tonight we ride, right or wrong
Tonight we sail, on a radio song
Rescue me, should I go down
If I stay too long in trouble town

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
You break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes you do

Now and again I get the feeling
Well if I don't win, I'm a gonna break even
Rescue me, should I go wrong
If I dig too deep, if I stay too long

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
You break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes you do

I'll be the boy in the corduroy pants
You be the girl at the high school dance
Run with me wherever I go
And just play dumb, whatever you know

Oh, yeah, you wreck me, baby
You break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes you do

you wreck me, baby
You break me in two
But you move me, honey
Yes you do

What is the Meaning of You Wreck Me?

Diving into the tumultuous waves of love and passion, this song captures the paradoxical pain and pleasure that often accompanies deep emotional connections. The lyrics paint a picture of a man caught in an intense relationship that both damages him and exhilarates him. He is willing to be 'wrecked' and 'broken in two' because of the moving effect his partner has on him. This is a common theme in love - the willingness to endure pain for the sake of experiencing profound feelings. The nostalgic references to being young and carefree suggest a longing for simpler times, yet there's an acceptance that love's complexity is what makes it truly captivating. Ultimately, this song is about surrendering to love's tumultuous journey, embracing both its highs and lows, because without them, we would never truly feel alive.
