Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fire girl with the slow whine
I, I don't need a guideline, to handle that your waistline
Let's take a trip to cloud nine
Make a stop at mile high
This girl, girl
I'm drunk on your moonshine
Star signs oh baby, you are mine
I'm feeling something, something, is love in the air?
Girl, I'm loving, loving, loving, loving your way ah
You're teasing me now, I'm wanting more
I think I'm drunk, I'm drunk in love
If I pass out, will you wake me with more love?
I know this is young love, feel like a lifetime
Although this is young love, don't ever leave my side
I know this is young love, feel like a lifetime
Although this is young love, don't ever leave my side
Side, side
Side, side, side, side
My, my
Side, side, side, side
Hold on, did I ever mention
I, I don't want no option
Give me all or nothing
I no be your side thing
Hey you, girl I wanna know
Wanna know how you roll
Say ooh, fine like Monroe
I'm losing my control
I'm feeling something, something, is love in the air?
Girl, I'm loving, loving, loving, loving your way oh
You're teasing me now, I'm wanting more
I think I'm drunk, I'm drunk in love
If I pass out, will you wake me with more love?
I know this is young love, feel like a lifetime
Although this is young love, don't ever leave my side
I know this is young love, feel like a lifetime
Although this is young love, don't ever leave my side
Side, side
Side, side, side, side
My, my
Side, side, side, side
Side, side, side
My side, side, side, side

This guy is so real....nothing fake about him. Him and Simi are made for one another. What a great work of God! His music is on a different leve... so real, so natural and so refreshing. I'm a huge fan.

I have been jamming this song continuously. I'm addicted to it. It's always playing in my head. I came here to ask for a therapist. I can't get this song off my brain. I need help, It's serious.
