Write On Me is a song by Fifth Harmony included in their second studio album, 7/27. The promotional single was released on May 5, 2016 and the music video on May 6, 2016.

Background[]

“Write On Me” is the second promo single from Fifth Harmony’s album 7/27, set to be released on May 27th, 2016. The lyrics contain imagery of drawing and writing as a metaphor for the effect that a romantic relationship could have on someone’s life.

Camila Cabello and Ally Brooke found the track to showcase the group's vulnerability in separate interviews.[1] While recording music for their sophomore album, Fifth Harmony was keen in including a ballad number. Cabello told Entertainment Weekly that fans would see "more of a vulnerable side" to them.

Camila: Write on Me is lyrically my favorite song on the album. To me the song is an extended metaphor where you’re asking somebody to ‘write’ on you, envelop you with their words, make their mark on you like you’re a blank canvas.[2]

Music Video[]

The music video for Write On Me was released on May 7, 2016 on VEVO. The music video was directed by Sam Lecca. The video, filmed in black and white, shows the five members of the group singing and dancing to the song.

Regarding the video, the member Normani Kordei expressed, "this is a different approach than we've done before." She elaborates this by stating that the video focuses more on the "lyrical content" as well as their "beauty shots" which is a new concept the group explores as "there's always so much going on."[3]

Fifth Harmony - Write On Me

Lyrics[]

Normani:
Pick up the pen, put it on the paper
Write on my skin, bring me to life
Can't start again, there ain't no eraser
All of my flaws, you got them so right

Camila:
Everything is blank until you draw me
Touching on my body like you know me

Lauren:
Write on me
Color outside the lines
Love the way you tat me up
Baby, take your time

Write on me
Give me some wings, I'll fly
Love the way you tat me up
I'll never change my mind

Fifth Harmony (Normani):
Write on me, write on me
Write on me, write on me (Write on me)
Write on me (Write on me)
Write on me

Dinah:
Love the way you tat me up

Fifth Harmony:

Ally:
You are my friend, straight and no chaser
Burns going down but it keeps me alive
Tell me the truth, I like the danger
Cause in the end you will be mine

Camila:
Everything is gray until you draw me
Touching on my body like you know me

Lauren:
Write on me
Color outside the lines
Love the way you tat me up

I could see a city sleep
I could see an ocean wave
Everything is changing and it's written on my face
