Madvillain Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Give me a little bit, a little bit
Just a little bit, or a lot

Pieces of the dream that I pick up in my mind
Is not blind, of our love
Every day when I look into your brown eyes
I get high, on our love

Pieces of the dream that I pick up in my mind
Is not blind, of our love
Every day when I look into your brown eyes
I get high, on our love

I, I get high, look in your, brown eyes
I get high
Higher you make me higher
I fly up high

I fly, take me there, I fly, take me there
I fly
