Birthday
Ballas Hough Band Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Words can't express how I've been feeling
Well since the day that I met you,
You've been running through my mind
And I can't get through to my feelings
And tell them to come back
Because I wanna be by your side

I keep telling all my friends about them,
The way that I feel whenever you're gone
So I'm stealing time to tell you what's on my mind
And that I'm feeling so strong

So what I gotta to get this in your head
Can you see it in my eyes when we're lying in bed
And if I'm losing you, I'ma put up a fight

Cause I wanna hold you all the time
Tell you that you're all that's on my mind
Baby, baby, please just dim the lights
Wanna treat you like your birthday
And give it to you your way

I wanna give it to you [Repeats]

And I don't think we saw it coming
Because you never get it when you want it
I wanna take away your breath
Tell me you love me to death
And later on you'll get some loving

And I keep telling all my friends about
How much of you that I have been missing
So listen closely, you don't need to worry
Cause soon I'm gonna bathe you in kisses

So what I gotta do to get this in your head
Can you see it in my eyes when we're lying in bed
And if I'm losing you, I'm gonna put up a fight

Cause I wanna hold you all the time
Tell you that you're all that's on my mind
Baby, baby, please just dim the lights
Wanna treat you like your birthday
Give it to you your way

I wanna hold you all the time
Tell you that you're all that's on my mind (I wanna hold you baby)
Baby, baby, please just dim the lights
Wanna treat you like your birthday
Give it to you your way





I wanna give it to you [Repeats]

Line by Line Meaning

Words can't express how I've been feeling
My emotions for you are too strong for words to describe


Well since the day that I met you,
My feelings for you started the moment we met


You've been running through my mind
I can't stop thinking about you


And I can't get through to my feelings
I am overwhelmed with emotions for you


And tell them to come back
I am struggling to express my emotions to you


Because I wanna be by your side
I want to be with you always


I keep telling all my friends about them,
I can't help but share my strong feelings for you with everyone


The way that I feel whenever you're gone
I feel lost when you are not with me


So I'm stealing time to tell you what's on my mind
I am taking any opportunity to express my feelings to you


And that I'm feeling so strong
My emotions for you are incredibly strong


So what I gotta to get this in your head
I need to find a way to make you understand my feelings


Can you see it in my eyes when we're lying in bed
I hope my eyes convey my love for you when we're close


And if I'm losing you, I'ma put up a fight
I will fight for our relationship if I sense you slipping away


Cause I wanna hold you all the time
I want to be physically close to you always


Tell you that you're all that's on my mind
You occupy my thoughts constantly


Baby, baby, please just dim the lights
I want to create a romantic atmosphere for us


Wanna treat you like your birthday
I want to make you feel special and loved


And give it to you your way
I want to fulfill your desires and wishes


And I don't think we saw it coming
We never expected to feel this way about each other


Because you never get it when you want it
Love doesn't always come at the time we want it to


I wanna take away your breath
I want to amaze and astound you with my love


Tell me you love me to death
I want you to express your love for me with passion


And later on you'll get some loving
We will share physical intimacy later on


So listen closely, you don't need to worry
I am devoted to you and will always care for you


Cause soon I'm gonna bathe you in kisses
I want to shower you with affection


I wanna hold you all the time
I never want to let go of you


Baby, baby, please just dim the lights
I want to create a romantic and intimate atmosphere for us


Give it to you your way
I want to fulfill your desires and wishes


I wanna give it to you
I want to express my love and commitment to you
