about
Just a Little Bit is a song I started writing my junior year of high school and initially gave up on because I simply had no idea how to finish it. Then, a couple years later when someone made a passing comment about me not being able to write love songs, I finished it (and wrote 7 more) out of spite. It’s a very simple song - it’s about being just a little bit in love with somebody. (Not a lot in love, just a little bit.) Specifically, with someone you’d never confess your feelings to. It’s about how, when you have a big fat crush on someone, it feels like all of a sudden they’re the center of your universe even if they don’t even know your name. Everything revolves around them. You can’t help but smile when you think about them, you can’t help but get nervous when you talk to them, and you know you’re not really in love but “like” isn’t a big enough word to encompass how you feel so maybe you’re a little bit in love. Not a lot, just a little bit.
lyrics
Lyrics:
I swear that I can’t tell what’s wrong
I smile a mile wide every time I hear a love song
My feet keep a-tappin my heart keeps a-poundin’
My head keeps spinnin’ whenever you’re around and
Baby can’t you tell me what’s wrong
I swear that I was fine yesterday
But I woke up this morning just a-feelin’ this a-way
My feet were still in bed but my head was in the clouds
It was so pretty up there with my hair in a shroud of sunshine
I’m just a little bit in love with you
Oh baby
And I know that there ain’t much to do
Oh honey oh
I’m just a little bit in love, it’s true
It’s not a lot: just a little
Just a little bit
I swear I didn’t mean to fall
And I’d be surprised if you noticed me at all
I ain’t head over heels, that would be ridiculous
But every time I see your name I get all… nervous
I’m just a little bit in love with you
Oh baby
And I know that there ain’t much to do
Oh honey oh
I’m just a little bit in love, it’s true
It’s not a lot: just a little
Just a little bit
Cause you know I don’t love you a lot
And I don’t like you a little
But when you talk my face gets hot
And my bones get all cold and brittle
And I’d kill a man to hold your hand
I swear I’m bein’ real
But I’d rather die than look ya in the eye
And tell you how I feel
Ohhhh
I’m just a little bit in love with you (I’m just a little)
Oh baby
And I know that there ain’t much to do (I’m just a little bit)
Oh honey oh
I’m just a little bit in love, it’s true (in love with you)
It’s not a lot: just a little (no, it’s not a lot)
Just a little bit (it’s just a little bit)
Just a little bit (just a little bit)
Just a little (just a little)
Just a little (just a little)
Just a little bit (bit)
