Misty
Turre Steve Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at me,
I'm as helpless as a kitten up a tree
And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
I can't understand,
I get misty, holding your hand.

Walk my way,
And a thousand violins begin to play
Or it might be the sound of your hello
That music I hear,
I get misty the moment you're near

You can say that you're leading me on
But it's just what I want you to do
Don't you realize how hopelessly I'm lost
That's why I'm following you.

On my own,
Would I wander through this wonderland alone
Never knowing my right foot from my left,
My hat from my glove,
I get misty, and too much in love.





I'm too misty, and too much in love

And I feel like I'm clinging to a cloud
I feel as though I'm floating and weightless, much like the way that a cloud floats through the sky.


I can't understand, I get misty, holding your hand.
There's a profound feeling of joy and awe in the way that I feel when I hold your hand, a sensation that's almost overwhelming.


Walk my way, And a thousand violins begin to play
The world around me seems to transform when you're near, everything seems to be in harmony and happy. It's almost as if a thousand violins are playing all at once.


Or it might be the sound of your hello That music I hear,
Even the sound of your voice, when you say hello, is so wonderful and magical that it sounds just like the most beautiful music that I've ever heard.


I get misty the moment you're near
Every time that you're near me, I feel like I'm lost in a cloud of happiness and joy, a feeling that's almost too much to handle.


You can say that you're leading me on But it's just what I want you to do
Even if you're just teasing me or playing a game, I'm completely happy to follow along and play the same tune. It's just what I want, after all.

I'm so lost in this feeling of love and joy that I feel for you that I'm completely happy to follow your lead, in every way possible.


On my own, Would I wander through this wonderland alone
Without you, I'd be completely adrift and alone in a world that seemed cold and unfeeling. You're my guiding light, my safe harbor.


Never knowing my right foot from my left, My hat from my glove,
Without you, I'd be lost and confused, unsure of even the most basic things in life. You're the one who shows me the way and helps me navigate through the world.


I get misty, and too much in love.
The way that I feel about you is almost too much to bear. I'm so in love with you that I can barely breathe, and I'm lost in a cloud of happiness and hope that's difficult to put into words.
