Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everytime I close my eyes
I see it
The way you occupied my time
I need it
Got addicted to the smile
I feel it
You got to know what's on my mind, read it

I feel so high, high on life
I see heaven in your eyes
High,on life, don't you waste your time

Where ever you go I'll be there
You know you can't hide from me
I was the one you needed, to feel so high on life, so free

I feel so high. high on life
I feel so high, read it in my eyes

Every promise that we made, keep it
All the love I really need, you give it

I feel so high, high on life
High,on life
I feel so high, high on life
I see heaven in your eyes, high on life
Don't you waste your time

I feel so high, high on life
I see heaven in your eyes
High on life
Don't you waste your time
High, high on life
I feel so high
I feel so high on life, so free

I feel so high
High on life
