Gifts For Me Lyrics – Meghan Trainor

Gifts For Me Lyrics Meaning

[Chorus]
She’s basically saying she’s choosing to spoil herself this year because she knows exactly what she wants. Instead of relying on others who might not get it right, she’s putting herself first. She trusts herself completely and enjoys treating herself without waiting for anyone else’s approval or understanding.

[Verse 1]
Here she talks about how people assume she already has everything, so they don’t know what to get her. But she’s not looking for more fancy things; she just feels misunderstood. Since others don’t really get what she wants, she decides to take over the job herself, almost like being her own Santa and picking out what truly makes her happy.

[Pre-Chorus]
She explains that she actually tried giving hints and making a list, hoping someone would pay attention and choose something she’d enjoy. But since no one really follows through, she’s ready to grab anything she likes on her own. It’s her way of saying she won’t wait around to be disappointed.

[Chorus]
She repeats that she’s happily buying her own gifts because she can count on herself more than anyone else. She knows what makes her feel good, so she’s taking control and treating herself. Others might mean well, but they just don’t understand her needs the way she does, so she’s choosing to shop for herself this year.

[Post-Chorus]
She reassures herself that it’s totally fine because she loves herself in a way no one else can. She’s confident, independent, and secure enough to handle her own happiness. This holiday season, she’s leaning into self-love and reminding herself that she’s got her own back, so there’s nothing to worry about.

[Verse 2]
She talks again about people assuming she doesn’t need anything since she already has nice things like a house, cars, and jewelry. But those material things don’t mean people truly understand her. Since others keep guessing wrong about what she wants, she steps in again like her own Santa, making sure she gives herself what actually feels special.

[Pre-Chorus]
She repeats that she made a list and hoped someone would pay attention, but it still didn’t happen. Instead of feeling let down, she decides that if she spots something she likes, she’ll just buy it. It’s her way of staying in control of her own joy without relying on anyone else.

[Chorus]
She celebrates the idea of gifting herself all over again, pointing out how reliable she is when it comes to knowing what she wants. She’s done waiting for others who don’t understand her tastes. Treating herself becomes a fun and empowering choice, and she’s fully embracing it this holiday season.

[Post-Chorus]
She keeps reminding herself not to stress because she loves herself better than anyone else possibly could. She’s giving herself the care, attention, and joy she deserves. This holiday, she’s choosing self-love above everything, reassuring herself that she’s enough and perfectly capable of making her own Christmas feel complete.

[Outro]
She ends by repeating how strongly she values and appreciates herself. She knows no one can match the way she understands and cares for her own needs. With that confidence, she proudly continues the idea of gifting herself and celebrating her independence.
