High on Emotion
De Burgh Chris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh my heart is spinning like a wheel
Only she can see the way that I feel
Eyes are holding right across the room
High explosion coming out of the blue

Well here we go again
Living in a world that others cannot share
Yea here we go again
We are moving from a spark to a flame

I am high on emotion, high again
High on emotion, your love will find the way

Oh my heart is burning like a fire
Closer now and she is breathing desire
Take my hand and give it all your light
Take command I am your rhythm tonight

Well here we go again
Living in a world that others cannot share
Yea here we go again
We are moving from a spark to a flame

I am high on emotion, high again
High on emotion, your love will find the way

I am high on emotion, high again
High on emotion, your love will find the way
High on emotion, high again
High on emotion, your love will find the way

High on emotion
High again
High on emotion
High again
High on emotion
High again




High on emotion
High again

Oh my heart is spinning like a wheel
Only she can see the way that I fell
Eyes are holding right across the room
High explosion coming out of the blue
Well here we go again
Living in a world that others cannot share
Yea here we go again
We are moving from a spark to a flame
I am high on emotion, high again
High on emotion, your love will find the way
Oh my heart is burning like a fire
Closer now and she is breathing desire
Take my hand and give it all your light
Take command I am your rhythm tonight
Well here we go again
Living in a world that others cannot share
Yea here we go again
We are…

Since it is possible to be high on emulsion:


Oh my flat, it needs a change I feel
Look and see, the need of change is so real Paint the walls in every single room
Add some colours to the ceiling and loo

Now let's go get some paint
Spread it on the walls, not gonna stand and stare
And try not to make stains
Think the flat will soon cease to look so lame

Paint!

I am high on emulsion, high again
High on emulsion, my flat will stay this way

Smell the paint, I'm feeling higher and higher
It feels great, oh Lord I am just on fire
With the brush in my hand it just feels right Gonna be done by the end of the night

I'm running out of paint
But it still feels great and less I couldn't care Might need to shop again
And once done I guess I'll play some board games

I am high on emulsion...

This is one of those songs when played on the radio in the car, on my way back home from work, just kicks me in the head and makes me sing along. I miss the 80's where music had soul and guts!
