Curtis Peoples Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
so excited you know you had me shaking
When I said I love you for the first time,
I may have started the party with some red wine
Doesn't change us doesn't change anything
I can never explain just why I feel this way
Oh you're turning me on yeah you intoxicate
This is real this is love
You got all that I need like you were made for me forever
What we're building it's a perfect kind of love
The way it's got me makes me feel like I'm drunk
I know our lives have got us running crazy,
but I'd do anything for ya baby
And every moment you and me would be enough
I can never explain just why I feel this way
Oh you're turning me on yeah you intoxicate
Me more than a crush
This is real this is love
You got all that I need like you were made for me forever
When I said I love you for the first time,
I may have started the party with some red wine
Doesn't change us doesn't change anything
I can never explain just why I feel this way
Oh you're turning me on yeah you intoxicate
Me more than a crush
This is real this is love
You got all that I need like you were made for me forever
Forever, oh
Forever
Forever
Forever
