Benji Matthews Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
About you, it makes everyone else insecure.
All the boys, are too scared to say it
But they all, wanna be yours.
And your sweet, like a daydream
Falling over me, I'm addicted to your love.
And your smile, illuminates
It's so bright, I just can't get enough.
You're my fantasy, when your with me
You make it seem easy to look so good.
Maybe I'm out of my head
Maybe I've lost control.
But I know I'm not the only one, no
I know that I'm not alone.
And your sweet, like a daydream
Falling over me, I'm addicted to your love.
And your smile, illuminates
It's so bright, I just can't get enough.

(I just can't get enough)
And your sweet, like a daydream
Falling over me, I'm addicted to your love.
And your smile, illuminates
It's so bright, I just can't get enough.
And your smile, illuminates

Benji Matthews, whatever higher power you believe in, may that power bless you and keep you going writing your music. I am a 62 yo man out in California and I have listened to this song too many times to count. Sometimes it is the simplest of songs that elicit the strongest emotions......and this does it for me.....sometimes when I listen, I have a tear in my eye for loved ones lost, sometimes I laugh and sing along as it reminds me of loved ones still here..... and on those days that are not so good it reminds me of how much, no matter how hard sometimes, I still love life............a heartfelt thank you my friend..... keep going for you truly know the power of music.......
