Miley Cyrus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning

Ah, hey, ah oh

Baby, baby yeah, are you listenin'?
Wondering, where you've been, all my life
I just started living
Oh, baby are you listenin' oh?

When you say you love me


Know I love you more
When you say you need me
Know I need you more
Boy I adore you
I adore you

Baby, can ya hear me?
When I'm crying out, for you
I'm scared oh, so scared
When you're near me
I feel like I'm standing with an army
Of men armed with weapons, hey oh

When you say you love me
Know I love you more
When you say you need me
Know I need you more
Boy I adore you
I adore you

I love lying next to you
I could do this for eternity
You and me, were meant to be in holy matrimony
God knew exactly what he was doing
When he lead me to you

When you say you love me
Know I love you more
When you say you need me
Know I need you more
Boy I adore you
I adore you

When you say you love me
Know I love you more
When you say you need me
Know I need you more

Boy I adore you
I adore you
