“Crave” by Madonna & Swae Lee
“Crave” is fundamentally a love song whereupon the artists are expressing their “cravings” for each other. And they are saying that once they feel this way about a person, the feelings can get “dangerous”. Or more specifically, when they fall in love, they fall in love deep. And “the feelings never fade” and moreover may extend even “to the grave”.

Under such circumstances, while Madonna and Swae Lee are clearly interested in each other, at the same time they are cautioning “not to play with this”. And now that they have let the other know exactly what’s “on the line”, they have no desire to “wait” and are ready to get their romance on and popping.
