And I'm Reasonably Certain

SomethingI I've got no say in

It's easy to see

I have to follow My own destiny , My destiny

I feel this way because , a reason

I feel this way because, you're the one

I feel this way because, Precious one

Do you feel this way?

Looking Forward to the time

When the secrets that you keep

A loving to me

Please Let me turn the key

to you, Mystery, the Mystery

I feel this way because , a reason

I feel this way because, you're the one

Do you feel this way?

Climb every Mountain

Soar the seven Seas

I've got your treasure bured in me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Divinyls' song "Because" center around the idea of destiny and the unexplainable feelings of attraction that the singer has towards their beloved. The line "Something I've got no say in" suggests that the attraction is beyond the singer's control and may even be preordained. The mention of "secrets" and a "Mystery" may indicate that the attraction is based on hidden, inexplicable qualities that the beloved possesses. The singer expresses a desire to "turn the key" to their beloved and unlock these secrets.

The chorus repeats the lines "I feel this way because, a reason, you're the one, Precious one, do you feel this way?" This emphasizes the singer's belief that the attraction is not arbitrary or random, but has a deeper significance. The lines "Climb every mountain, soar the seven seas, I've got your treasure buried in me" suggest that the singer is willing to undergo great challenges and sacrifices for the sake of their beloved.

Overall, the lyrics suggest a belief in fate and a sense of profound connection with the beloved that cannot be easily explained or controlled.
