You Got Me
Caillat Colbie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You're stuck on me and my laughing eyes
I can't pretend though I try to hide
I like you. I like you

I think I felt my heart skip a beat
I'm standing here and I can hardly breathe
You got me, yeah, you got me
The way you take my hand is just so sweet
And that crooked smile of yours
It knocks me off my feet

Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up
It feels so good, it must be love
It's everything that I've been dreaming of
I give up, I give in, I let go
Let's begin
Cause no matter what I do,
Oh (oh)
My heart is filled with you

I can't imagine what it'd be like
Livin' each day in this life
Without you. Without you
One look from you
I know you understand
This mess we're in you know is just so, out of hand.

Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up'
It feels so good it must be love
It's everything that I've been dreaming of
I give up. I give in. I let go
Let's begin
Cause no matter what I do
Oh (oh)
My heart is filled with you

I hope we always feel this way
(I know we will)
And in my heart I know you'll always stay

Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up
It feels so good it must be love
I give up, I give in, I let go, Let's begin
Cause no matter what I do

Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up'
It feels so good it must be love
(It's everything that I've been dreaming of)
I give up, I give in, I let go
Let's begin

Cause no matter what I do
Oh (oh)
My heart is filled with you

Oh (oh)
You got me, You got me




Oh (oh)
You got me, You got me

You’re stuck on me and my laughing eyes
I can’t pretend though I try to hide – I like you
I like you.

I think I felt my heart skip a beat
I’m standing here and I can hardly breathe – you got me
You got me.

The way you take my hand is just so sweet
And that crooked smile of yours it knocks me off my feet

[Chorus:]
Oh, I just can’t get enough
How much do I need to fill me up.
It feels so good it must be love
It’s everything that I’ve been dreaming of.
I give up. I give in. I let go. Let’s begin.
Cause no matter what I do,
Oh (oh) my heart is filled with you.

I can’t imagine what it’d be like
Living each day in this life – without you.
Without you.
One look from you I know you understand
This mess we’re in you know is just so out of hand.

[Chorus]

I hope we always feel this way (I know we will)
And in my heart I know that you will always stay

Oh, I just can’t get enough
How much do I need to fill me up.
It feels so good it must be love
I give up. I give in. I let go. Let’s begin.
Cause no matter what I do,

[Chorus]

Oh (oh)
You got me. You got me.
Oh (oh)
You got me. You got me.
