MAKNA LAGU STARVING - HAILEE STEINFELD & GREY FT ZEDD

 "You know just how to make

My heart beat faster"

Sebelumnya kita tahu bahwa artis Hailee Steinfeld masih terbilang baru menginjak dunia tarik suara namun siapa sangka lewat single perdananya bertajuk LOVE MYSELF Hailee seakan membuktikan dirinya 'mampu' bukan hanya lewat akting di film layar lebar. Untuk Zedd siapa sih yang bakal ragu kalo lagu yang udah di remix Zedd itu jelek? Dari daftar lagu Zedd yang udah aku dengar selama ini gak ada yang jelek atau remix 'murahan' seperti kebanyakan DJ (u kno' what i actually mean) dan disini ia tampil memukau dan semakin mengeluarkan eksistensinya di dunia edm. Dan bukan hanya Zedd, Hailee juga ditemani oleh penyanyi duo asal amerika Grey, ya walaupun mereka hanya menjadi cameo.

LIRIK

You know just what to say
[Version with Zedd:] Shit that scares me
[Version with Grey:] Things that scare me
I should just walk away
But I can't move my feet

The more that I know you, the more I want to
Something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday, oh

I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you
Don't need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo
By the way, right away you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you

I didn't know that I... I didn't know that I... 'til I tasted you
I didn't know that I... I didn't know that I... 'til I tasted you

By the way, right away you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you

You know just how to make
My heart beat faster
Emotional earthquake,
Bring on disaster

You hit me head on, got me weak in my knees
Yeah, something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday, aye
So much younger yesterday, oh, yeah

I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you
Don't need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo
By the way, right away you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you

I didn't know that I... I didn't know that I... 'til I tasted you
I didn't know that I... I didn't know that I... 'til I tasted you

By the way, right away you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you
You, yeah, 'til I tasted you

I didn't know that I... I didn't know that I... 'til I tasted you

By the way,right away you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving 'til I tasted you

The more that I know you, the more I want to
Something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday
