DADABE Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But everything seems to be fine
You need to take a ride
I can see it in your eyes
You know that I've been missing
All my life I've been away
Now I have you by my side
You dance like wildfire
Lonesome, shining through the night
You smile and don't look back on
anything heading to the sun
You know that I've been missing
All my life I've been away
Now I have you by my side
Unlock your fears
I know you're near
Don't try to leave
And be sure to come see me
