Got to Get You Into My Life
Lulu Joppert Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was alone, I took a ride
I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I
Could see another kind of mind there
Ooh, then I suddenly see you
Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life
You didn't run, you didn't hide
And had you gone, you knew in time
We'd meet again for I had told you
Ooh, you were meant to be near me
Ooh, and I want you to hear me
Say we'll be together every day
Got to get you into my life

What can I do, what can I be
When I'm with you I want to stay there
If I'm true I'll never leave
And if I do I know the way there
Ooh, then I suddenly see you
Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day of my life
Got to get you into my life

I was alone, I took a ride
I didn't know what I would find there
Another road where maybe I
Could see another kind of mind there
Ooh, then I suddenly see you




Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Every single day

Line by Line Meaning

I was alone, I took a ride
I ventured out by myself


I didn't know what I would find there
I wasn't sure what to expect


Another road where maybe I
A different path that perhaps


Could see another kind of mind there
I might meet someone with a distinct perspective


Ooh, then I suddenly see you
Then you appeared and caught my attention


Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Did I express how much I require your presence


Every single day of my life
Each and every day, no exceptions


You didn't run, you didn't hide
You did not flee or disappear


And had you gone, you knew in time
Even if you had departed, eventually


We'd meet again for I had told you
We would reunite because of my previous statement


Ooh, you were meant to be near me
You were fated to be in my proximity


Ooh, and I want you to hear me
And I want you to listen to me


Say we'll be together every day
Let's promise to be together without fail


Got to get you into my life
I absolutely must have you with me


What can I do, what can I be
I wonder what actions I must take and what kind of person I should become


When I'm with you I want to stay there
Whenever I'm around you, I wish to remain


If I'm true I'll never leave
If I am loyal, I won't depart


And if I do I know the way there
But if I do go, I know how to return


Got to get you into my life
I absolutely must have you with me


Ooh, then I suddenly see you
Then you appeared and caught my attention


Ooh, did I tell you I need you
Did I express how much I require your presence


Every single day of my life
Each and every day, no exceptions
