Intoxicated
The Cab Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And I think you're from another world
And I, I couldn't have another girl
'Cause you, you make me feel like I'm Intoxicated

In a room full of frozen faces
In a moment of fractured time
We eclipse in conversation
As the words pass us by

With you we could be the only ones here

'Cause I think you're from another world
And I, I couldn't have another girl
'Cause you, you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

To the sky flying high take me to the moon
Day or night we don't have to say a word
'Cause you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

Your eyes like a shot of whiskey
Warms me up like a summer night
Can you tell that I need you with me
Let me drink you down tonight
No I don't just want any pretty face
Wanna wake up next to yours each day

Babe, I want you be my saving grace tonight, tonight

With you we could be the only ones here
'Cause I think you're from another world
And I, I couldn't have another girl
'Cause you, you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

To the sky flying high take me to the moon
Day or night we don't have to say a word
'Cause you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

Felt like I black out pass out
Every time that we touch
And if it hurts every moment
Then it must be love
Want your heart, Baby straight no chaser
I wanna feel it in my head when I wake up (when I wake up)

'Cause I think you're from another world
And I, I couldn't have another girl
'Cause you, you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

To the sky flying high take me to the moon
Day or Night we don't have to say a word
'Cause you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

To the sky flying high take me to the moon
Day or night we don't have to say a word
'Cause you make me feel like I'm intoxicated, toxicated

And I think you're from another world




And I, I couldn't have another girl
'Cause you, you make me feel like I'm intoxicated
