Think About You (feat. Nicky Romero / Ne-yo)

David Guetta's song 'Think About You,' featuring Nicky Romero and Ne-Yo, delves into the emotional turmoil of trying to move on from a past relationship. The lyrics poignantly capture the struggle of a person who is haunted by memories of a former lover. The repetition of 'I close my eyes, and there you are' and 'I open my eyes, and there you are again' illustrates the inescapable presence of the ex-partner in the protagonist's mind, whether awake or asleep. This constant reminder makes it difficult for the individual to find peace or solace, as even mundane activities like eating and sleeping are disrupted by thoughts of the lost love.

The chorus, with its repetitive lines 'I don’t wanna think about you, but I can’t stop if I wanted to,' emphasizes the internal conflict between the mind and the heart. The mind understands the need to move on, but the heart is unwilling to let go, resulting in a painful and ongoing struggle. This dichotomy is a common theme in songs about heartbreak, but Guetta, Romero, and Ne-Yo bring it to life with a catchy yet melancholic melody that resonates with anyone who has experienced a similar emotional battle.

The song also touches on the theme of self-blame, as seen in the lines 'It ain’t my fault, but still I take the blame.' This suggests that the protagonist is grappling with feelings of guilt and responsibility for the relationship's end, even if it wasn't entirely their fault. This self-blame further complicates the healing process, making it even harder to move forward. The collaboration between David Guetta's production, Nicky Romero's beats, and Ne-Yo's soulful vocals creates a powerful and relatable anthem for those struggling with the lingering pain of a past relationship.
