Glad You Came
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And all that counts, is here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came (came, came)
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time
Time is slipping away
Away from us so stay
Stay with me I can make
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down, the stars come out
And all that counts, is here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came, I'm glad you came
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
So let's go somewhere no-one else can see you and me
Turn the lights out now
Now I'll take you by the hand
Hand you another drink
Drink it if you can
Can you spend a little time
Time is slipping away
Away from us so stay
Stay with me I can make
Make you glad you came
The sun goes down, the stars come out
And all that counts, is here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came, I'm glad you came
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
I'm glad you came
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
So glad you came
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh)
I'm glad you came
(Oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh)
I'm glad you came
The sun goes down, the stars come out
And all that counts, is here and now
My universe, will never be the same
I'm glad you came, I'm glad you came (came, came, came)

The sun goes down, the stars come out
As the day comes to a close, the stars begin to shine in the sky
And all that counts, is here and now
The present moment is what matters most
My universe, will never be the same
My entire world has been altered by your presence
I'm glad you came (came, came)
I'm filled with joy and happiness that you came into my life
You cast a spell on me, spell on me
You have enchanted me with your presence and charm
You hit me like the sky fell on me, fell on me
You have impacted me so strongly that it feels like the sky has fallen on me
And I decided you look well on me, well on me
I have concluded that you and I look good together
So let's go somewhere no one else can see you and me
Let's find a private place where it's just us two
Turn the lights out now
It's time to turn off the lights
Now I'll take you by the hand
I'll guide you by holding your hand
Hand you another drink
I'll give you another drink
Drink it if you can
If you're able to, go ahead and drink it
Can you spend a little time
Do you have some time to spare?
Time is slipping away
We're running out of time
Away from us so stay
Time is fleeting, so please stay with me
Stay with me I can make
Stick around and I can promise to make you happy
Make you glad you came
I can guarantee that you will be happy that you came
So glad you came
I'm so happy that you're here
