Blood on the Dance Floor Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Be careful what you wish for...
It might come true...
Your imagination...
Could be the death of you...
;)

You can,
Have it all...
If you,
Stay with me.
I will,
Grant your every wish,.
And your fantasies...
You're sad,
And broken hearted.
Promise,
I can mend it.
Your Dreams,
Comin' true,
And I'll break in I know...
(I'll break in I know...)

I'm so lush,
I'm everything you want.
I'm your fantasy...
I'm What Dreams Are Made Of!
You want me.
Can't resist me...
You know that,

I'm What Dreams Are Made Of...(X3)

Your wish,(X2)
Cross it off my list...
(X2)

Everything,
That you ever wanted.
Anything,
That you've ever needed...
Don't you,
Worry about it,
Leave it all to me...:)
(Leave it all to me...:))

I'm so lush,
I'm everything you want.
I'm your fantasy...
I'm What Dreams Are Made Of!
You want me.
Can't resist me...
You know that,
I'm What Dreams Are Made Of...

Your wish,(X2)
Cross it off my list...
(X2)

(Baby,
1,
2,
3...)
Your wish..(X2)
(I'll become a dream...)
Cross it off my list...
(Baby,
1,
2,
3...)
Your wish..(X2)
(Come and dance with me...:])
Cross it off my list...

I'm What Dreams Are Made Of...

I'm so lush,
I'm everything you want.
I'm your fantasy...
I'm What Dreams Are Made Of!
You want me.
Can't resist me...
You know that,

I'm What Dreams Are Made Of...(X3)

Your wish...(X2)




Cross it off my list...
(X2)

Overall Meaning
