This song is a high-energy romantic track expressing the intoxicating bliss of falling head over heels in love. The protagonist describes how a mere glance or walk from his lover mesmerizes his soul, making his pulse race and starting an internal war of emotions. The track uses playful, youth-centric imagery where even modern sounds like vehicle horns and biological hormones seem to express love for her.
