Ooh, I can't pretend
Like you didn't bring my tempo up again
(Tempo up again)
My head's in a spin
You send my body to a place it's never been
Baby, won't you let me
Keep you up all night, let the morning come closer?
You send me so high now, the ceiling can't hold us
Listen to my heart, let the rhythm control ya
I'll be there when you need my love
Just follow the beat of my drum (drum, drum, drum, drum, drum)
It goes: Um-pa-pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum-pum
Um-pa-pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum-pum
Um-pa-pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum-pum
Um-pa-pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum-pum
Just follow the beat of my drum
Ooh, I can't pretend
Like I didn't let your love go to my head
Ha-ah, mm-mm
Ooh, I'm in a spin
You send my body to a place it's nеver been
Ah-ah
Whoa-oh, oh no, thinkin' about you, makin' my body behave so
Crazy, ooh, you makе me wanna sway slow
You push up on me, baby, you got me for days, oh, you do
Baby, won't you let me
Keep you up all night, let the morning come closer?
You send me so high now, the ceiling can't hold us
Listen to my heart, let the rhythm control ya
I'll be there when you need my love
Just follow the beat of my drum (drum, drum, drum, drum, drum)
It goes: Um-pa-pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum, pum-pa-pum-pum
