Comparing romantic longings with those of drug users is a classic trope in popular music, going back to songs like 1973’s “Love Jones” or even 1932’s “You’re Getting to Be a Habit With Me.” Considering that love actually does cause the production of mind-altering chemicals, this is perhaps unsurpri...
High on You Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There you stood, that'll teach her
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you about the girl I met last night
It's understood, I had to reach her
I let the wheel of fortune spin
I touched your hand before the crowd started crashin' in
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm getting hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle of the street, and now
[Chorus 1]
I can't stop thinkin' about you, girl
I must be livin' in a fantasy world
I'm so high on you
[Verse 2]
Smart and coy, a little crazy
The kind of face that starts a fight
Let me tell you about the girl I had last night
Piercing eyes like a raven
You seemed to share my secret sin
We were high before the night started kickin' in
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now I'm screamin' in the night
I know I'm getting hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle of the street, and now
[Chorus 2]
I can't stop thinkin' about you, girl
I must be livin' in a fantasy world
I've searched the whole world over
To find a heart so true
Such complete intoxication
I'm high on you
[Refrain]
There you stood, that'll teach her
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you about the girl I met last night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm getting hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch in the middle of the street, and now
[Chorus 2]
I can't stop thinkin' about you, girl
I must be livin' in a fantasy world
I've searched the whole world over
To find a heart so true
Such complete intoxication
I'm high on you
[Outro]
I'm high on you
I'm high on you

What did Survivor say about "High on You"?
Jim Peterik told Songfacts:
This is one song that’s not brain surgery. It came from a jam. A lot of great songs come from jam sessions. I remember soundchecks with Survivor and [my other band] The Ides Of March, and there’s no better place to start a jam than on stage. Everything is miked-up, you’r...
