Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They set me free
They get me high
No sister, flower
Will be denied girl
The heat of affection
A fragile mind
Uh now
My dreams came true
Uh
Because of you
Because of you
Uh now
My dreams came true
Because of you
And I feel the warmth in your tough
My ego trips
I can't get enough
That satisfaction
Lies in your hands girl
I wrote this song
So you'll understand
Because of you
Uh now
My dreams came true
Uh
Because of you
Because of you
Uh now
My dreams came true
