Rollercoaster
Camille and Stuie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Of your apartment complex
With my head in the clouds
I've been waiting for somebody like you to come around for so long
You grabbed my hand and said "don't think about it
We got things to do, got the whole world around us
No use waiting another second
Kiss me slow and we can listen to your favorite records"
Uh oh, here I go again
Uh oh, falling hard again, oh
Too fast, I don't wanna crash, but you make me feel ok
Uh oh, I can't find the words
Uh oh, don't let me get hurt, oh
And we're picking up speed and my feet can't even touch the ground
I called you crying 'cause my head's against me
You tell me be gentle, I'm too hard on myself
And we talk about our favorite movies until
We fall asleep on the phone
You brought me flowers that were green and blue
Said "girl I thought of you" and you want me to know
Usually you like to take things slow, but this time
It feels right to move fast (Your foot on the gas)
Uh oh, here I go again
Uh oh, falling hard again, oh
Too fast, I don't wanna crash, but you make me feel ok
Uh oh, I can't find the words
Uh oh, don't let me get hurt, oh
And we're picking up speed and my feet can't even touch the ground
And we're climbing, oh we're climbing to the top
I don't even care how far we're gonna drop
No hesitation, you're like a vacation I never wanna leave
Uh oh, here I go again
Uh oh, falling hard again, oh
Too fast, I don't wanna crash, but you make me feel ok
Uh oh, I can't find the words
Uh oh, don't let me get hurt, oh
And we're picking up speed and my feet can't even touch the ground
