Pudditorium Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If you had never come to me
Where would I be now without the love you gave to me?
I stop and look at where we are
where I used to be
The things I never used to see
How would I survive without the love you gave to me? (said)
without someone who knows how to make me smile
someone to hold me every morning when I wake with every breath I take someone like you
Really wonder where I'd be
without someone who knows how to reach my heart
someone who's own life comes only after mine and constantly is blowing my mind
oh woah oh woah oh woah
Somebody to change your life
Somebody to open up your eyes and make you realize things you never knew Somebody will be mesmerized
by every little thing that you do
Nobody knows how but somebody will do this to you
Everything you do keeps bringing me close to you
(said)
I don't know where I'd be
without someone who knows how to make me smile
someone to hold me every morning when I wake with every breath I take someone like you
Really wonder where I'd be
without someone who knows how to reach my heart
someone who's own life comes only after mine and constantly is blowing my mind
Somebody to change your life
Somebody to open up your eyes and make you realize things you never knew Somebody will be mesmerized
by every little thing that you do
Nobody knows how but somebody will do this to you
Everything you do keeps bringing me close to you
Hey hey
hey hey yeay yeay
oh woah oh
