Thinking Of You
★N Sync Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Lying in your arms, so close together
Didn't know just what I had
Now I toss and turn'
'Cause I'm without you
How I'm missing you so bad
Where was my head? Where was my heart?
Now I cry alone in the dark

I lie awake, I drive myself crazy
Drive myself crazy thinking of you
Made a mistake when I let you go, baby
I drive myself crazy
Wanting you the way that I do (Wanting you the way that I do)

I was such a fool, I couldn't see it
Just how good you were to me (Just how good you were to me)

You confessed your love (You confessed your love)
Undying devotion
I confessed my need to be free
And now I'm left with all this pain
I've only got myself to blame

I lie awake, I drive myself crazy
Drive myself crazy thinking of you
Made a mistake when I let you go baby
I drive myself crazy
Wanting you the way that I do (Wanting you the way that I do)

Why didn't I know it (How much I loved you baby)
Why couldn't show it (If I had only told you)
When I had the chance
Oh, I had the chance, oh, la, la, la, la

I drive myself crazy', ah
Oh, so crazy, la, la, la, la, oh

I lie awake, I drive myself crazy
Drive myself crazy thinking of you
Made a mistake (made a mistake), let you go baby
I drive myself crazy
Wanting you the way that I do

I lie awake, I drive myself crazy (I drive myself crazy)
Drive myself crazy, crazy, crazy
Made a mistake, let you go baby
I drive myself crazy
Wanting you the way that I do




I drive myself crazy
Wanting you the way that I do

@@dientesdesable13507 BIBLE calls us all to be real, sober minded souls, who live holy lives on earth.
BIBLE calls nor expect nobody to be:
- religious of any kind
- monk
- nun
BIBLE expect us to turn our LACK OF KNOWLEDGE into KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH (HOSEA 4:6)
Each human life on earth:
- repent
- BORN AGAIN and GO AND SIN NO MORE
- be baptised in HOLY SPIRIT /THE COMFORTER
- LIVE HOLY
= soul, after earthly death in HEAVEN. Easy logic, asks no degree in anything.

Bible calls us to give out RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT, no to keep our mouth shut and support everything with blind eyes and deaf ears.

See no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil – that old saying, it belongs to masons, am I right again? The vow of silence of theirs.

SOULS, dare to read and study BIBLE (KJV) and search about FREEMASONRY.

Oh, oh
When the visions around you
Bring tears to your eyes
And all that surrounds you
Are secrets and lies
I'll be your strength
I'll give you hope
Keeping your faith when it's gone
The one you should call
Was standing there all along
And I will take you in my arms
And hold you right where you belong
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
I've loved you forever
In lifetimes before
And I promise you never
Will you hurt anymore
I give you my word
I give you my heart
This is a battle we've won
And with this vow
Forever has now begun
Just close your eyes (close your eyes)each loving day (each loving day)
And know this feeling won't go away (no)
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you
This I promise you
Over and over I thought
When I hear you call
Without you in my life, baby
I just wouldn't be living at all
And I will take you in my arms (I will take you in my arms)
And hold you right where you belong (right where you belong)
'Til the day my life is through
This I promise you, babe
Just close your eyes each loving day (each loving day)
And know this feeling won't go away (no)
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Every word I say is true
This I promise you
Ooh, I promise you

Your welcome🤫
