Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Take you away while the night is young
Don't wanna wait till' morning comes to call you home
It's a life, we're alright cause we live in paradise
Terrified of the lights, we don't wanna kill the night
It's a life, we're alright cause we live in paradise
Must be something in the room
All I wanna get is something I won't forget
We can dive deeper than the ocean bed
All I wanna get is deeper with you
All I wanna see is one thing before I leave
Getting so deep, it's hard to breathe
All I wanna get is deeper with you
Summer breeze is howlin'
My heart is still just like the sun
The animal inside me, wants to taste your love
It's a life, we're alright cause we live in paradise
Terrified of the lights, we don't wanna kill the night
It's a life, we're alright cause we live in paradise
Must be something in the room
All I wanna get is something I won't forget
We can dive deeper than the ocean bed
All I wanna get is deeper with you
All I wanna see is one thing before I leave
Getting so deep, it's hard to breathe
All I wanna get is deeper with you
All I wanna get is something I won't forget
We can dive deeper than the ocean bed
All I wanna get is deeper with you
All I wanna see is one thing before I leave
Getting so deep, it's hard to breathe
All I wanna get is deeper with you
