BECAUSE OF YOU
Gokey Danny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's amazing how the simple ordinary suddenly is upside down
I can't find the words, but everything is different
Yeah, you came and changed my world around

And what do I say to try to explain?

It's like the stars in the sky even shine a little brighter
I'm blazing like a fire because of you
I'm awake, I'm alive, held inside your love forever
The good keeps getting better because of you
Ooh, because of you, ooh

Your amazing love can put me back together
When I think all hope is gone
It's incredible knowing you are with me
It gives me strength to keep moving on

And what do I say to try to explain?

It's like the stars in the sky even shine a little brighter
I'm blazing like a fire because of you
I'm awake, I'm alive, held inside your love forever
The good keeps getting better because of you
Ooh, because of you, ooh

You've got me feeling, feeling
Oh you've got me feeling things I've never, never
Never felt before
Oh God just made me, change me
Everything I am is yours

Because of you
Because of you, whoa

It's like the stars in the sky even shine a little brighter
I'm blazing like a fire because of you
I'm awake, I'm alive, held inside your love forever
The good keeps getting better because of you
Ooh, because of you
Ooh, because of you
Ooh, because of you
Ooh, because of you
