Only For You
Ha-Lo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I only do it when I'm thinking of you
I hit the ceiling when the lights are low
You are my fantasy I won't let it go
Whatever else is in the back of my skull
I have for you the most compassion of all
I like the colour of the holes in your eyes
I wanna kiss you on the top of your thigh
Look what you've done to me
I'm shaking uncontrollably
Stuck in this fantasy
I'm thinking things I shouldn't be
Burn myself out for you
I wouldn't but I have to
Only for you
Whatever else is in the back of my skull
I have for you the most compassion of all
I like the colour of the holes in your eyes
I wanna kiss you on the top of your thigh
Look at me
Look what you've done to me
I'm shaking uncontrollably
Stuck in this fantasy
I'm thinking things I shouldn't be
Burn myself out for you
I wouldn't but I have to
Only for you
If only for you x4
