Because of You
尼欧Ne-Yo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Want to but I can't help it
I love the way it feels
This got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I need it when I want it
I want it when I don't
Tell myself I'll stop everyday
Knowing that I won't
Even if I did, I don't know if I would quit
But I doubt it, I'm
Taken by the thought of it
And I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move, but I like it
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
So, then it's all because
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug
Ooh
Think of it every second
I can't get nothing done
Only concern is the next time I'm gon' get me some
Know I should stay away from
'Cause it's no good for me
I try and try, but my obsession won't let me leave
I got a problem, and I (don't know what to do about it)
Ooh, even if I did, I don't know if I would quit
But I doubt it, I'm
Taken by the thought of it, ayy
And I know this much is true
Baby, you have become my addiction
I'm so strung out on you (strung out on you)
I can barely move, (ooh), but I like it (and I like it)
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
So, then it's all because
Never get enough (never get enough)
She's the sweetest drug
Ooh-oh-oh
Ain't no doubt (no doubt, ayy)
So strung out (strung out, oh)
Ain't no doubt (this ain't no grain of doubt, oh)
So strung out (hey)
(Over you)
Over you (you)
Over you (you)
Because of you
And it's all because of you
Mmm, never get enough
She's the sweetest drug
And I know this much is true
Baby, you (baby, you, you, you, yo)
Have become my addiction (my addiction)
I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move, but I like it (but I like it, yeah)
So, then it's all because of you (oh, all because of you)
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
So, then it's all because
Never get enough (oh, never get enough)

Line by Line Meaning
Ooh
Expressing a feeling of desire or excitement
Want to but I can't help it
I have a strong desire to do something, but I can't resist
I love the way it feels
I enjoy the sensation that comes with it
This got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I am caught in between my unrealistic desires and reality
I need it when I want it
I feel like I require it whenever I desire it
I want it when I don't
I crave it even when I don't want it
Tell myself I'll stop everyday
I make a promise to myself every day to stop doing it
Knowing that I won't
But I am aware that I won't be able to keep that promise
I got a problem, and I (don't know what to do about it)
I have an issue that I'm struggling with and I don't know how to handle it
Even if I did, I don't know if I would quit
Even if I were to know how to fix my issue, I am unsure if I would be able to stop
But I doubt it, I'm
I'm skeptical that I would be able to quit
Taken by the thought of it
I'm captivated by the idea of it
And I know this much is true
I am certain of this fact
Baby, you have become my addiction
You are the thing that I am addicted to
I'm so strung out on you
I'm highly addicted to you
I can barely move, but I like it
I'm immobilized by my addiction, but I still enjoy it
So, then it's all because of you (all because of you)
My addiction is your fault
Never get enough
I always need more
She's the sweetest drug
You are my favorite addiction
Think of it every second
It's always on my mind
I can't get nothing done
It's preventing me from being productive
Only concern is the next time I'm gon' get me some
My main focus is getting more of it
Know I should stay away from
I am aware that I should avoid it
'Cause it's no good for me
Because it's not beneficial for me
I try and try, but my obsession won't let me leave
I attempt to quit, but my addiction makes it difficult to do so
Ain't no doubt (no doubt, ayy)
I have no uncertainty
So strung out (strung out, oh)
I'm completely addicted
This ain't no grain of doubt, oh
I have no doubt about this
Over you (you)
I am addicted to you
Because of you
It's all your fault
She's the sweetest drug
You are my favorite addiction
