Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh did you see me falling,
In and out of love.
Uh I can hear it calling,
Uh did you see me falling,
Take me over, take me out
To the jungle through the night in paradise, paradise
To the jungle,through the night forever.
All the things in only on the screen
That's the way to live
City's memories promise stereo
But don't sleep, now it's time to go
Uh I can hear you calling
Uh, did you see me falling.
Take me over, take me out
To the jungle through the night in paradise, paradise
Take me over, take me out
To the jungle,through the night forever.
You may not notice now, what people talk about you
Some people think that we're running away
I'll push the ?
It's all I ever done, so give me a reason to stay.
Uh, uh
Take me over, take me out
To the jungle through the night in paradise
Take me over, take me out
To the jungle through the night forever, uh
