Delirious
30. David Guetta Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Seems to me like the days are getting longer
For everyone there's no fun when there's no time to sleep
Working on and on for a day in the sun
Counting down the days to it stops (every day)

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face
And it's far to complete
I'm delirious

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face
And it's far to complete
I'm delirious

Take me away make me a holiday!
Delirious
Take me away make me a holiday!
Delirious

Under the sun I feel I'm getting stronger
Time to rewind my mind and recharge my batteries
'Cause it takes so long
And too soon it's gone
Holding back the days to my reality (yeah)

Take me away, make me a holiday
Take me away, make me a holiday
Delirious

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face
And it's far to complete
I'm delirious

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face
And it's far to complete
I'm delirious

Ohh yeah yeah
Ohh
Delirious
Ohh ohh
Ohh yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face
And it's far to complete
I'm delirious

Can you hear us?
Watch the sun on my skin
And the world that I'm in
Makes me delirious

Can you hear us?
With a smile on my face




And it's far to complete
I'm delirious
