Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Got, got, got)
(Gotta, gotta keep you closer, it feels so right)
Oh (got, got, got, gotta, gotta keep you closer, it feels so right)
Oh
for you I'd write a symphony
I'd tell the violin
Watch 'em play for ya
For you I'd be, whoa, oh
Running a thousand miles
Just to get to where you are
Step to the beat of my heart
I don't need a whole lot but for you I admit I'd
Rather give you the world or we can share mine
I know I won't be the first one
Givin' you all this attention, baby, listen
I just need somebody to love
I, I don't need too much
Just need somebody to love
Somebody to love
I don't need nothing else, I promise, girl, I swear
I just need somebody to love
I need somebody, I, I need somebody
I need somebody, I, I need somebody
Everyday, I bring the sun around
I sweep away the clouds
Smile for me (smile for me)
I would take, every second, every single time
Spend it like my last dime, step to the beat of my heart
I don't need a whole lot but for you I admit I'd
Rather give you the world or we can share mine
