Pick Me Up
Matt Hires Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm lying here, thinking, all night long.
Something good is going on, on.
And I know, I know, I know,
You feel it too now.
Darling, I guess it took some time,
But now there's one thing on my mind,
Oh, I know, I know, I know,
You turn me inside out.

So how?
Oh, how can I be with you now?
Now that I know I just can't live without you,
I can't live without you, no.
Can you pick me up, pick me up?
Can you pick me up?
Cause I just wanna be, wanna be with you,
Darling, I just wanna see this through.

The midnight moon has passed me by.
Hours to go before it's light,
Oh, hang on, hang on, hang on,
This is forever.
I'm counting down minutes in my brain.
Hurry, I'm gonna go insane
Just, just wishin', wishin', wishin',
We were together, oh.

So how? Oh, how can I be with you now?
Now that I know I just can't live without you,
I can't live without you, no.
Can you pick me up, pick me up?
Can you pick me up?
Cause I just wanna be, wanna be with you,
Oh, I just wanna see this through.

Can you pick me up, pick me up, pick me up, pick me up?
Can you pick me up, pick me up?
Can you pick me up?
Cause I just wanna be, wanna be with you,
Oh, I just wanna see this through.




Darling, I just wanna be, wanna be with you,
Oh, I just wanna be with you.
