Like Someone in Love
Dick Garcia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hearing guitars like someone in love.
Sometimes the things I do astound me,
Mostly whenever you're around me.
Lately I seem to walk as though I had wings,
Bump into things like someone in love.
Each time I look at you,
I'm limp as a glove,

Lately, I find myself out gazing at stars
Recently, I have been spending time looking up at the stars in the sky
Hearing guitars like someone in love.
I am hearing music that is often associated with being in love
Sometimes the things I do astound me,
Occasionally, I surprise myself with my actions
Mostly whenever you're around me.
This mostly happens when you are in my presence
Lately I seem to walk as though I had wings,
It seems like I have gained the ability to fly recently
Bump into things like someone in love.
I have been bumping into things like I am not paying attention to where I am going because I am thinking of being in love
Each time I look at you,
Whenever I look at you
I'm limp as a glove,
I become weak in the knees
And feeling like someone in love.
I am overcome with the emotions of being in love
