Todrick Hall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And Iβ€²m yours yours
(And I'm yours yours)

Somebody told me love was a scary game
A puzzle thatβ€²s impossible to win give it up
Hop off the love train it will only lead you to a dead end
And it might be tough, but I'm chancing I wanna give you love I taste, this once a life, lets dance it don't wanna let forever go to waste
Yeah...

Donβ€²t wanna fall forever (oh) Just let me look into your eyes (into your eyes)
Cause youβ€²re the only one that can bring me back to life (bring me back to life)

And I don't know much about love but I know you got the key to my heart
Wind it up (And Iβ€²m yours yours)
Wind it up (And I'm yours yours)
Baby your touch is enough and if we ever start falling apart
Wind it up (And Iβ€²m yours yours)
Wind it up (And baby I'm yours tonight)

Ah... (Iβ€²m yours yours And baby I'm yours tonight)
Ooh...(And I'm yours yours And baby Iβ€²m yours tonight)

Oh baby Iβ€²m feeling like I'm dancing on air, let me go
Donβ€²t tape me but tell them other hearts to beware
Cause I'm out of control
Iβ€²m not wasted but I'm a little drunk on you
Donβ€²t steal my heart just take it but only if you give me yours too
Yeah...

Don't wanna fall forever
Just let me look into your eyes
Cause you're the only one that can bring me back to life

And I donβ€²t know much about love but I know you got the key to my heart
Wind it up (And Iβ€²m yours yours)
Wind it up (And I'm yours yours)
Baby your touch is enough and if we ever start falling apart

Wind it up (And baby I'm yours tonight)

Baby Iβ€²m yours, baby I'm yours
(Baby Iβ€²m yours tonight)
I'm yours tonight
(Baby I'm yours tonight)

Ballerina could you tell me what I gotta to make you to fall down from the sky
Cause you look like youβ€²re trying so hard not to fall for this guy
And ballerina if you let me I promise that I wonβ€²t let you fall down
I've never seen a ballerina so scared to let her feet touch the ground

Woah...

And I donβ€²t know much about love (I don't know much) but I know you got the key to my heart (my heart)
Wind it up (And Iβ€²m yours yours) (baby I'm yours)
Wind it up (And Iβ€²m yours yours) (tonight)
Baby your touch (touch) is enough (is enough) and if we ever start falling apart (falling apart)
Wind it up (wind it up...) (And I'm yours yours)
Wind it up (And baby I'm yours tonight) (yea yeah yea yeah)

Wind it up wind me up (Baby Iβ€²m yours tonight)




Oh wind me up oh wind me up
(And baby Iβ€²m yours tonight)
