You don't know how you met me
You don't know why,
You can't turn around
And say goodbye,

All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins
Like a fish in the sea,

I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,

I'm not worried
'bout the ring you wear
'cause as long as no one knows
Then nobody can care,

You're feelin' guilty
And I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed
And baby I'm not scared,

I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,

Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
Your better off if you don't ask why,

I'm not the reason that you
Go astray
We'll be alright
If you don't ask me to stay,

Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and
Say goodbye,

All you know is when I'm with you
I make you free
And swim through your veins
Like a fish in the sea,

I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,

I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me,

I'm singin'
Follow me
Everything is all right,
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night,
And if you want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

    General Comment:Here's what i think this song means.

    You won't find somebody else like me, meaning probably because she cheated or left him. Follow me, meaning if she follows him he'll treat her right and he guarantees her that if she follows him it'll be alright.
    I think she cheated and he's telling her basically that she won't find someone like him. And he's guaranteeing that.

    General Comment:clearly it's about an affair.
    "I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
    Cause as long as no one knows
    Then nobody can care
    You're fellin' guilty
    And I'm well aware
    But you don't look ashamed
    And baby I'm not scared"
    he's trying to comfort her in cheating on her husband with him. i don't see how it could be any more obvious. i've been that girl that wants the guy to cheat... i've said the same things. heroin isnt involved. AT ALL. "swim through your veins.." simply just relates to totally giving yourself to someone else, so that you are like one being and you have totally surrendered all of the doubts of a cheating relationship.

    General Comment:How in the world can you NOT see this song as being about Heroine?
    Ill break it down:

    "You don't know how you met me
    You don't know why, you can't turn around and say good-bye
    All you know is when i'm with you I make you free
    And swim through your veins like a fish in the sea
    I'm singing...."

    Okay in this verse he is talking about how he's not sure how he became addicted to the drug, meaning it could have been an accidental use, or a one time thing that lead to an addiction. Heroine is one of the most addicting drugs known to man, so therefore it is incredibly hard to quit. It relaxes the system and creates a sense of euphoria, which is what he means by i make you free, and swimming through your veins? Its injected directly into the blood stream.

    Follow me
    Everything is alright
    I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
    And if you want to leave
    I can guarantee
    You won't find nobody else like me

    He saying that as long as you stay addicted, you wont realize that you have a problem, you will continue using until it kills you. It is one of the strongest drugs around, therefore it would be hard to find something that could create the same emotions and feelings that heroine can.

    I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
    Cause as long as no one knows
    Then nobody can care
    You're fellin' guilty
    And I'm well aware
    But you don't look ashamed
    And baby I'm not scared
    Im singin...

    he is saying that the drug doesnt have emotions so therefore it wont know or care if you are married single, or if it tears aparrt your life. he is saying that what you do in your spare time, I>E> Heroine, is totally your decision and that nobody should care what you do. It is saying that the addiction has become so strong that the person does not even care what happens to them or how the outside world sees


    Won't give you money
    I can't give you the sky
    You're better off if you don't ask why
    I'm not the reason that you go astray
    We'll be alright if you don't ask me to stay

    It will bakrupt you if you let it, it cant ever give back to you. Its saying that you are better if you dont try to question why you have become addicted to the drug as well. It saying that you cant blame the drug for your addiction, because after all, they are the one who picked up the substance to begin with. and iit is saying that eventally it will leave you alone when you cannot afford the addiction anymore.

    My Interpretation:To me it's clearly a cheating song. Probably because I can really relate to it on that level. I've had people in my life I shouldn't have been with but they are incredibly hard to give up and you just don't know what it is about them that they have such a strong hold over you. They say all the right things and make it really hard not to go there with them.

    General Comment:I always thought that this was a song about a married man having a homosexual affair....that's the part that gets me about the fact that he's guilty, because he's married, but he's not ashamed of it which is basically the most important thing. This would have been the -best- song for brokeback mountain, I swear.

    My Interpretation:Regardless of what it may do with drugs of cheating, this song pretty much deals with how somebody feels like they need another one and that if that person goes back on him or her, it's over and you can never go and find somebody better. Which deals with most of what the previous people are thinking of, except in a wider idea.

    General Comment:It might be just me, but it could be dad and daughter. like it doesn't matter if you wear a ring, your still my baby girl, and like if she wants to leave, hes saying like go ahead, but no guy is gonna be as good as your old man. i know it can be interpereted as an affair, or drugs, but this is just my opinion
