Song Description'You Got Me' is a song by American Pop artist, Lexi Marie Taylor taken from her debut extended play, 'XO.' The song was written by Lexi Marie Taylor, and produced by Grant Matthews and Noah Ramsey. The track sees the production team blurring the line between pop and electronic music quite smartly, featuring light polished vocals and a very on-trend, vocal-chopped chorus accompanied by a tight, effervescent rhythm post-drop. “You got me, yeah yeah / I don't hear a word they say / You have nothing left to prove / Boy you got me, ooh / I love it that you're mine / I finally got it right this time.” It’s incredibly smooth and intricate, a promising taste of what’s to come from the talented artist.
Songwriter's CommentsOut of all the songs on my debut EP, this one is my favorite one. The reason why is because it's exactly how I'm feeling at the moment. It was added on last minute since I was still in the process of finalizing the song. I thought that this one would make a perfect fit to the concept of the album. I wanted to have a balance of love songs and break up songs. Although it didn't really turn out that way. At most, there's more love songs than break up songs but I don't think that's a bad thing. This particular one happens to be a love song. I just recently got into a new relationship and we've been dating for two months now. Usually when I'm in love I'm inspired to write and that happens to be the case. I'm very happy with how things are going with us. This song is very personal for me, and very honest. I just wanted it to be said that no matter what everyone thinks of him that I'm his and I'll always be there for them. I believe that I can see the best in people when others can't. This is one of those times, and if my fans are going through the same, they'll be able to relate.
[Verse 1]You seem to drive me crazy, crazy for more of you
Babe I can't help wanting to fall
They say you'll leave me empty, break me until I'm weaken
But I ain't scared of this at all
[Pre-Chorus]I hear the bad things they say about you
They pretend to know everything about you, but they don't
Cause baby you're the only one who can touch my body
You tend to know all the right things to do, oh
[Chorus]You got me, yeah yeah
I don't hear a word they say
You have nothing left to prove
Boy you got me, ooh
I love it that you're mine
I finally got it right this time
[Verse 2]My friends may not approve of you, baby you know I really don't care
I love you so don't listen to what they say
I'm told you're not the right one, but you changed me for the better
Love me, I'll never run away
[Pre-Chorus]I hear the bad things they say about you
They pretend to know everything about you, but they don't
Cause baby you're the only one who can touch my body
You tend to know all the right things to do, oh
[Chorus]You got me, yeah yeah
I don't hear a word they say
You have nothing left to prove
Boy you got me, ooh
I love it that you're mine
I finally got it right this time
[Post-Chorus]You got me
I love it that you're mine, I finally got it right this time
You got me
I love it that you're mine, I finally got it right this time
[Outro]No matter what we're going through, I promise it'll always be you
Who I'm giving my love, Who I'm giving my heart
Boy you got me, yeah yeah
You got me
