Because of You
Sabrina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Want to but I can't help it
I love the way it feels
It's got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I need it when I want it I want it when I don't
Tell myself I'll stop everyday knowin' that I won't

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it and I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you
And it's all because of you
And it's all because of you

And it's all because...
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug
Think of it every second
I can't get nothing done
Only concern is the next time I'm gonna get me some
Know I should stay away from cause it's no good for me
I try and try but my obsession wont let me leave

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it
Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it and I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)
And it's all because of you (all because of you)

And it's all because...
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug

Ain't no doubt so strung out
Ain't no doubt so strung out
Over you over you over you

Because of you
And it's all because of you




Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug she's the sweetest drug
