Irresistible Lyrics

Don't try to make me stay
Or ask if I'm okay
I don't have the answer
Don't make me stay the night
Or ask if I'm alright
I don't have the answer.


Heartache doesn't last forever
I'll say I'm fine
Midnight ain't no time for...

    This song is about a love between two people that are no longer together. The guy seems to have been hurt by the girl. Whatever she did to hurt him makes him unsure and a little angry of their relationship status. Mostly he is heartbroken, and even more hurt because he can’t seem to let her go

    He is indecisive because he is afraid of getting hurt again. However, one thing that he is sure about is how irresistible she is from her lips, to her kiss, to fingertips, to her IRRESISTIBLE eyes. Until he learns to let her go she always be the one for him.

    The girl seems to want to communicate checking on him if he is alright, if he is okay, and whether or not he will stay with her (as stated in the beginning of the lyrics). However he refuses to really express how he feels because of the pain already afflicted between them.

    She must have done something really bad to hurt him, so hopefully she knows better next time around. However, I don't think he ever lets her know what he truly feels for her.

    I think it's when you get to a point in your relationship where it's a bit rough. He is trying to give you space but all he can think about is you. He is remembering all the time when your relationship went more smoothly.

    The song is about that special someone that no matter what they'll do to you, you will always there, I think it's a great love song.

    I think this song is about a girl and a boy who used to date. The boy still likes and loves her, but she moved on and is with someone new. So, the song could be placed in a situation where the guy is watching the girl with her new boyfriend, there are friends, who are trying to cheer him up (don't try to make me stay, or ask if I'm okay...) and he says he is okay, he believes that he'll be fine, but he just can't with the situation, anyway, he still finds her beautiful, he still likes her a lot, for him, she is irresistible. It's a heartwarming song but it's also really painful.

    I find that they mean That you've lost someone close to you. Either they've died or gone away, dumped you or 'diserpeared'. Many people think this song refers to lost family members. Such as there mum and dad ect. You're heart broken because you've lost your lover/family/friend. That is what I feel as a true fan girl =)

    Hope this was informative! Alex

    This song is like cold coffee. It's heart warming, but it's really sad. She broke up with him, but tries to make him feel better. He wants her back, but he doesn't know if she's good for him. He finds her 'irresistible' even more now that he can't have her. He is experiencing mixed emotions and doesn't know if he should move on or try to win her back.

    The girl is breaking up with him, but tries to cheer him up. Every time he looks at her, he finds her irresistible. In the beginning (heartache doesn't last forever, I'll say I'm fine..." Liam is saying that he'll get over it, but is struggling. Niall says (I've tried to ask myself should I see someone else, I wish I knew the answer...) that he doesn't know if he should "see someone else" or try to win back his (ex) girlfriend, whom he still has feelings for. He says (but if I leave, and I'm on my own tonight, I'll never know the answer) that if he leaves, he'll never know the answers to the questions he's asking himself. It's heart warming and heart breaking at the same time. Deuces.

    This song is about a boy and a girl having relationship problems. The boy is unsure of what to do. As Harry says, he doesn't want the girl to make him stay or ask if he's okay because he has no answer. He's unsure because (as sung in the chorus) the boy finds the girl irresistible, but knows the relationship isn't going to work out.

    I think this song is about a guy and girl having relationship problems. The boy is trying to leave the girl. The girl is trying to figure out whats wrong but like Liam says in the begging, he is refusing to tell her.
    It's hard for the boy to leave her because he finds the girl irrisistable and he still loves her unconditionally.

    i think this mean that the girl is leaving this boy and she his trying to cheer him up but she can't. The more the guy misses the more she is irresistible.
    As Niall said if he should find someone else but he can't because only this girl can help him smile and love again.

    I understand this song as their relationship isnt working. She wants him to stay, and he obviously finds her irresistable and he cant make up his mind if he should just leave the relationship because its not working out or if he should stay with the girl he finds irresistable and find out the answer to their relationship

    The story in this song is sung by a boy who is clearly struggling in a relationship - he's undecided if he and this girl should stay together. He's actually talking this relationship over with a good friend of his (a girl). She's had feelings for him for a while, and because he's lonely and feeling lost, he uses that to his advantage. He seduces her for comfort because he's hurting.

    I think this song is about a boy who has recently gotten out of a relationship falling in love with a friend who is trying to make him feel better.

    I feel this song could be about a boy wanting to leave a girl, but BECAUSE she's just SO tempting, he can't, even though he wants to.

    I think that the song clearly means that they love you no matter what you do. Maybe they also mean that they feel like they can't say no to you when they look at you in the eyes.The also say that they don't know what they feel when they are with you.But they will always love you because they can't say no to your eyes.
