“Make me sweat, make me water”: Tyla, Water lyrics & meaning
Water is a seductive song where Tyla invites her man to spend the night with her: in the lyrics meaning, she wants him to drive her crazy, making this moment unforgettable. The song is also responsible for the TikTok “Water challenge,” a dance trend where creators and dancers worldwide play those moves under the song’s chorus. You can find here on Youtube a collection of TikTok videos about this trend.
“Make me sweat, make me water” is like an official invite to her man: in the lyrics, Tyla demands him to drive her body, making the best out of the time together. And sweating is not the only sign their bodies are connected in sex: Tlya asks him to make her water, like our mouth does when we see a delicious dish with our eyes.
Make me sweat
Make me hotter
Make me lose my breathe
Make me water
The suggestion is to stop talking. “Talk is cheap,” she says. It’s time he shows her what he’s able to do. Poetically, Tyla invites him to “snatch her soul from her,” symbolizing the complete switch from emotions to physical sensations.
Talk is cheap
Show me
That you understand how I like it
Can you blow my mind
Set off my whole body
If I give you my time
Can you snatch my soul from me
And her hope is that time with him will be long and intense, lasting all night. That’s why she asks him not to get too excited: she plans to enjoy this moment until dawn:
Hopefully
You can last all night don’t get too excited
It’s a direct, seductive song, interpreted in a sweet, poetic way, and the meaning behind Water lyrics is easy to absorb: I’m here for you, offering you a whole night together. Make me always remember this unique moment.
