No I'm not in love

Tate McRae

Lyrics

[Verse] Swear I'm only sleepin' at your house Six times in one week 'Cause it's convenient And I'm only kinda dressin' like you now (You now) 'Cause your clothes, they fit me And that's good reason, oh yeah
[Pre-Chorus] Told you one, two, three times Don't be readin' through lines Every friend of mine I told them the same
[Chorus] No, I am not in love I am not thinkin' 'bout you Sun's not gonna come up And I don't hate every girl your eyes go to I am not in love Sky has never been blue (Blue) No, I'm not in love (Love) No, I'm not, not, not with you No, I'm not, not, not, not—
[Post-Chorus] I am not in love, no, no I am not in love I am not in love, no, no Why would you think that? Why would you think that?
[Verse] I'm not bothered lookin' up your exes Matter of fact, we could probably be friendses Only singing to your songs like, oh We got the same taste, that ain't my fault If I slip and I somehow say it You should know in advance I'm wasted I don't really care what it feels like Or what it looks like, babe
[Chorus] No, I am not in love I am not thinkin' 'bout you Sun's not gonna come up And I don't hate every girl your eyes go to I am not in love Sky has never been blue (Blue) No, I'm not in love No, I'm not, not, not with you No, I'm not, not, not, not
[Post-Chorus] I am not in love, no, no I am not in love I am not in love, no, no (I'm not in, not in) Why would you think that? Why would you think that? I am not in love, no, no (In love) I am not in love (Yeah) I am not in love, no, no Why would you think that? Why would you think that?
[Bridge] Told you one, two, three times Don't be readin' through lines Every friend of mine I told them the same
[Chorus] No, I am not in love I am not thinkin' 'bout you Sun's not gonna come up And I don't hate every girl your eyes go to I am not in love Sky has never been blue (Blue) No, I'm not in love No, I'm not, not, not with you No, I'm not, not, not
[Post-Chorus] I am not in love, no, no I am not in love (Yeah) I am not in love, no, no (I'm not in, not in) Why would you think that? Why would you think that? I am not in love, no, no (No) I am not in love (Why?) I am not in love, no, no Why would you think that? Why would you think that?

About The Track

"No I'm not in love" is a clever, tongue-in-cheek anthem from Tate McRae's album SO CLOSE TO WHAT??? (Deluxe). The song brilliantly captures the internal conflict of falling for someone while desperately trying to play it cool. Through sarcastic lyrics and a catchy melody, Tate explores the vulnerability of admitting feelings in a "situationship," using hyperbole to highlight just how deep in denial she really is.

Meaning

Denial as Defense

The song is a masterclass in denial. Tate uses it as a shield to protect herself from the vulnerability of love. By saying "I am not in love," she attempts to convince herself as much as the listener.

Actions vs. Words

There is a stark contrast between her actions (sleeping over 6 times a week, wearing his clothes) and her words. This highlights the confusion often present in modern, undefined relationships.

Sarcastic Hyperbole

Phrases like "Sun's not gonna come up" serve as clear indicators of sarcasm. By linking her denial of love to impossible events, she subtly confesses that her love is as certain as the sunrise.

Is she actually in love?
