Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You wouldn't stop ′til I would listen
But through the peep hole I kept my distance
Curiosity finally got the best of me
So I turned the lock inside
And I let You in
And I'm so glad I did Your love is famous

You changed somebody's day from the inside out
You turn around a circumstance
A weary heart starts to dance
I saw a man so down and out he couldn′t stand
Jump up, sing and shout
And I joined in
'Cause I was a lot like him
