Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caught up in years old
Getting caught up when i'm gone
Probably won't go to sleep till morning
Don't go out anymore
I guess I've changed
Baby I could've stayed the same
Oh you know it
Baby not one more drink
I won't go one more night
(I was with you when I wasn't here)?
(Out the whole day)?
So yeah we could've done it alright
I know we need
Girl i'm not feeling this party
I like you more when its just us together
I just won't stay here i'm sorry
I know you want what you want baby girl its whatever
I will not be like these others
You found in parties
Ended up braking your heart
I know what its like to get caught up
Hate when its brought up
But lets take it right from the start I know
How I used to just ride in the city
Used to be caught up in everything with you and me
Oh my lord I need you please forgive me
Now i'm just caught in your zone
Man i'm so far from my home
Baby girl you can come with me
Know what your thinking I know what your drinking
Well ill leave and you stay but girl don't forgive me oh no
Girl you won't hear me say your name
Baby girl I guess things change
So maybe we could've stayed the same
Oh you know oh you know

Caught up in your zone
Put that cup down that you're passing me
Caught up in your zone
While my old feelings trynna mess with me oh no
Baby girl just take your time
What would I do to make you mine

What are these drugs?
Never get back what you give and its never enough
I just wanna take in whats better for me
I just wanna take in whats better for us
Know where your heart is I know that your hurting
I just won't ever let anything break it
No how your feeling I know its your burden
Oh yeah my baby won't you let me take it off
Let me take this weight up off your shoulders
Baby girl I know your way too down
You know we can talk about it all
You know that ill always stay around

Girl i'm caught up tonight
Oh girl i'm caught up tonight
Girl i'm caught up and i'm all alone
Girl i'm caught up cause i'm far from home
Girl i'm too far from home
I'm too far from home




I'm too far from home
I'm too far away

facts

Mohammad Ali hussain Laghari

Joe i just want to say thank you so much for this song. I found out about this song in 2016 when i was in my first year of the university, it makes me remember about the parties, dorm/hostel life and you you know that period when you are 18-19 years old. I wish i could live that again. Now i’m 24 and it made me remember of that university life that i had and i won’t lie a tear dropped when i heard it today. Thanks man, I wish you success !
