Drag Me Down
Kenny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I´ve spent my life looking for you
Finding my way wasn´t easy to do
But I knew there was you all the while
And it´s been worth every mile.

Lay down beside me and love me and hide me
Kiss all the hurting of this world away
Hold me so close that I´ll feel your heartbeat
And don´t ever wander away.

Mornings and evenings all were the same
And there was no music ´til I heard your name




But I knew when I saw you smile
Now I can rest for a while.
