Can't Get Enough of You Baby
Smash Mouth Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can't get enough of you, baby
I can't get enough of you, baby
Yes, it's true
Baby, yes, it's true

Whenever we kiss, I get a feeling like this
I get to wishin' that there were two of you
My heart cries out, more baby

It feels so nice
I want your arms to wrap around me twice

I can't get enough of you, baby
I can't get enough of you, baby
Right or wrong
Baby, right or wrong

When you had to go, I hated the thought
I only wish the night was twice as long
My heart cries out, more baby
I love you so much
I wish that there was more of you to touch

I can't get enough of you, baby (can't get enough of you, baby)
I can't get enough of you, baby, yeah

Whenever we kiss, I get a feeling like this
I get to wishing that were two of you
My heart cries out, more baby
I love you so much
I wish that there was more of you to touch

I can't get enough of you, baby (can't get enough of you, baby)
I can't get enough of you, baby (can't get enough of you, baby)
I can't get enough of you, baby (can't get enough of you, baby)

I can't get enough of you, baby (can't get enough of you, baby)
I can't get enough of you, baby
