Every day of my life has been
Leading me here tonight
Feels like I’m coming home
Back to you, back to you
Every chance that I take
Every wrong turn and every mistake
Is a step on the road
Back to you and I’m alive
I like it, I like it, I can’t get enough
I like it, I like it, yeah I get a rush
I like what I like and I like it too much
You know what I like, yeah I get a rush
And my goal, I see you
You’re as close as the hole in my shoe
And when I’m feeling used
I’m renewed, I get high
I can fly, I’ve got wings
I’ve got riches that money can’t bring
I’ve got more than a king, I’ve got you
And baby that’s alright
I like it, I like it, I can’t get enough
I like it, I like it, yeah I get a rush
I like what I like and I like it too much
You know what I like, I get a rush from you
Everything you do, I call it love
Yeah, I get a rush, I get a rush, yeah
Every day of my life
Has been leading me here tonight
And wherever I roam I’m heading
Back home to you, back to you
‘Cause I like it, I like it, I can’t get enough
I like it, I like it, yeah I get a rush
I like what I like and I like it too much
You know what I like, yeah I get a rush
I like it, I like it, I can’t get enough
I like it, I like it, yeah I get a rush
I like what I like and I like it too much
You know I like, I get a rush from you
Everything you do, I call it love
Yeah, I get a rush, I get a rush from you
Finding Home in Passion: The Emotional Drive of “I Get A Rush”
Bon Jovi’s “I Get A Rush” is a powerful anthem about longing, fulfillment, and the electrifying feeling of being close to someone you love. The lyrics trace a journey of self-discovery where every experience—both good and bad—brings the narrator back to their true home: a deep, passionate connection. The repeated lines, “I like it, I like it, I can’t get enough,” capture the intoxicating rush that love provides, suggesting an addiction not just to a person but to the vitality that love brings. Imagery like having “wings” and feeling “renewed” elevates the narrative, giving the song a sense of freedom and renewal that transcends material wealth. Ultimately, it’s a celebration of the transformative energy that love inspires, making every struggle along the way worthwhile.
