Billy Idol - Gimme The Weight Lyrics

Billy Idol Lyrics

"Gimme The Weight"

Tried every party, but they only made me crazy
I loved a thousand girls, it only made things worse
Tried every drug until they didn't elevate me
Drank every bottle, but they couldn't quench my thirst

Till you came
Gravity changed

Gimme the weight
When it gets heavy
Gimme the weight
It's you I'll carry
When it's hardcore
I only want you more
Gimme the weight
'Cause I'd give it away just to carry the weight with you
Weight with you

White lines and late nights only lead to paranoia
Sent me to rehab, I got high and ran away
I saw the world, but only hotel bars and bathrooms
I had it all and then I lit it with butane

And then you came
And I'm not the same

Gimme the weight
When it gets heavy
Gimme the weight
It's you I'll carry
When it's hardcore
I only want you more
Gimme the weight
'Cause I'd give it away just to carry the weight with you
Weight with you

Gimme the weight
When it gets heavy
Gimme the weight
It's you I'll carry
When it's hardcore
I only want you more
Gimme the weight
'Cause I'd give it away just to carry the weight with you
Weight with you
