Only For You
Heartless Bastard Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been a while since I felt this way about someone
I'd really really like to know you more, know you more
Oh your eyes they sing a song to me
And I'd really really like to move to it, groove

And I will open my heart
And I will only for you
Oh your eyes they're spinning 'round my head
And oh, oh this light is on, ooh yeah, on, ooh yeah
Oh your eyes they're spinning 'round my head
And oh, oh this light is on, ooh yeah, on, ooh

And I will open my heart
And I will only for you

And I just don't know what to do
My head has such a cloudy view
I'm so tired of trying
And I just don't know what to do
My head has such a cloudy view
I'm so tired of trying

Oh your eyes they're spinning 'round my head
And oh, oh this light is on, ooh yeah, on, ooh yeah
Oh your eyes they're spinning 'round my head
And oh, oh this light is on, ooh yeah, on, ooh





And I will open my heart
And I will only for you

I’m 62 years old and thanks to YouTube I’m still discovering great music without having to trawl through the ever diminishing record stores. Having said that, please go out and support those record stores. It’s great fun when you’re young.
