Cocaine Love
Ezzy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Grab me by the veins of my heart
Tell me that you wanna start
Tryna make us be more than friends
And I
Heard you whisper in my ear
Tellin me baby c'mere
Give me what you wanna see and what you Can't
Is your heart
And peach
Is the sky
And Red
Is my world
That's why
You're holding me
Down
'Til I can't breathe
'Til my skin turns green
Daddy plant your seed
Put your Liquid
Love
In my psyche
I'll be
Yours
(Blue)
