Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Need your hand
Uh oh, went too close, way to far,
Need your hand
So come for me, come for me, come fill me up
I got sick fascination for love
And when the bottle's done
I'm drinking this all by myslelf
Sober me up
Cuz his is no good for my health
Sober me up
Take me to the limit till I wanna be sober
Sober me up
Where do I begin when I want it to be over, over
Blacked out, hold me up now, on my down, meet me right here
White cloud, spin my head round
Failing for me, meet me right here
So come for me, come for me, come fill me up
I got sick fascination for love
And when the bottle's done
(sober me up)
Sober me up
I'm drinking this all by myself
(Sober me up)
Sober me up
Cuz this is no good for my health
(Sober me up)
Sober me up
Take me to the limit till I wanna be sober
Sober me up
Where do I begin when I want it to be over, over, oh
