I know, it's a stupid song, but I was flipping around on the radio when the song came on some lame-ass retro station. This song was a major make-out song when I was in high school in the 1980's, so I've heard it dozens of times (I'll wait for you to stop laughing).

This time, though, when I really listened to the lyrics, I think "girl he met last night" is refering to drugs. Read all the lyrics. I think there's hidden meaning in the lyrics.

There you stood, that'll teach her
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you 'bout 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 crushin' in

Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch
In the middle of the street and I...

I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living in a fantasy world
I'm so high on you

Smart and coy, a little crazy
The kinda face that starts a fight
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I had last night
Piercin' eyes, like a raven
You seemed to share my secret sin
We were high before the
Night started kickin' in

Now I'm screamin' in the night
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch
In the middle of the street and I...

I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living 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

There you stood, that'll teach her
To look so good and feel so right
Let me tell you 'bout the girl I met last night

Now I'm higher than a kite
I know I'm gettin' hooked on your love
Talkin' to myself, runnin' in the heat
Beggin' for your touch
In the middle of the street and I...

I can't stop thinking 'bout you girl
I must be living 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, I'm high on you
I'm high on you, I'm high on you
