I Touch Myself Lyrics

I love myself I want you to love me When I'm feelin' down I want you above me I search myself I want you to find me I forget myself I want you to remind me Chorus: I don't want anybody else When I think about you I touch myself I don't want anybody else Oh no, oh no, oh no You're the one who makes me come running You're the sun who makes me shine When you're around I'm always laughing I want to make you mine I close my eyes And see you before me Think I would die If you were to ignore me A fool could see Just how much I adore you I get down on my knees I'd do anything for you Chorus I love myself I want you to love me When I'm feelin' down I want you above me I search myself I want you to find me I forget myself I want you to remind me Chorus I want you I don't want anybody else And when I think about you I touch myself Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah Chorus

Meaning of I Touch Myself

“I Touch Myself” is a raw and unapologetic declaration of self-love and desire fueled by intense attraction. Chrissie Hynde, the lead singer of Divinyls, embodies a powerful reclamation of sexuality after experiencing hardship, expressing a fervent need for connection and acceptance. The lyrics detail a yearning to be seen and loved fully, acknowledging vulnerability with phrases like “When I’m feelin’ down” and “If you were to ignore me.” The repeated refrain, "I don't want anybody else," underscores the singular focus on this particular individual, while the explicit imagery of self-touch – a bold act of empowerment – signifies a complete surrender to desire. Ultimately, the song is about finding strength within oneself, recognizing one’s own worth, and bravely pursuing love with an honest and passionate heart.
