You're Makin' Me High
Braxton Toni Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll always think of you
Inside of my private thoughts
I can imagine you
Touching my private parts
With just the thought of you
I can't help but touch myself
That's why I want you so bad
Just one night of
Moonlight with you there beside me
All night doin' it again and again
You know I want you so bad
Baby baby baby baby (baby baby baby baby)

Oh I get so high
When I'm around you baby
I can touch the sky
You make my temperature rise
You're makin' me high
Oh baby baby baby baby

Can't get my mind off you
I think I might be obsessed
The very thought of you
Makes me want to get undressed
I want to be with you
In spite of what my heart says
I guess I want you too bad
All I want is
Moonlight with you there beside me
All night doin' it again and again
You know I want you so bad
Baby baby baby (baby baby baby baby)

Oh I get so high
When I'm around you baby
I can touch the sky
You make my temperature rise
You're makin' me high
Oh (baby baby baby baby)

I want to feel your heart and soul inside of me
Let's make a deal you roll, I lick
And we can go flying into ecstasy
Oh darlin' you and me
Light my fire
Blow my flame
Take me, take me, take me away

Moonlight with you there beside me
All night doin' it again and again
You know I want you so bad
Baby baby baby (baby baby baby baby)

Oh I get so high
When I'm around you baby
I can touch the sky
You make my temperature rise
You're makin' me high
Oh (baby baby baby baby)
Oh I get so high
When I'm around you baby
I can touch the sky
You make my temperature rise




You're makin' me high
Oh (baby baby baby baby)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Toni Braxton's song "You're Making Me High" paint a picture of desire and lust. The theme of the song is centered around the physical attraction between two people, with the singer's private thoughts and fantasies taking center stage. The lyrics describe how the mere thought of this person sends her reeling and how she can't control her urges. She wants to be with this person so badly, and even though her heart may be telling her something else, she is driven by her desire for him. The chorus emphasizes the singer's heightened emotional state and the way this person makes her feel. She compares her feelings to being on a high and how this person brings her to an emotional climax.


The second verse continues to reinforce the theme of unbridled desire, with the singer claiming that she can't get this person out of her head, and that she may be obsessed with him. The idea of getting undressed just because of the mere thought of this person reinforces the idea of an intense physical connection between these two individuals. The bridge of the song describes the physical act of being together, with the suggestion of oral sex and a desire to enter a state of ecstasy. The final chorus brings listeners back to the idea of being "high" with this person, of wanting to be around them constantly, and the way that they make the singer feel physically.

This generation will never understand how DOPE the 90's were.

@RicoLC85

I agree. All they listen to is complete garbage songs they play these days. I grew up to toni braxton, and this is my generation. Still one of the best songs until this day. 2024 anyone?
