If only for tonight
Yeah, I could dig myself a grave
But even six feet down I know
I'll be found feeling this way
If only I could find
Yeah, just a reason to believe
That there's nothin' that's up your sleeve
Even though you're wearing that tank top
Love me or leave me, but just not behind
We don't need money the way we spend time
'Cause if it's real tonight
You and I could really do something
You go fast, I go slow
Meet you in the middle just to let you know
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
If it's me and you tonight
[If it's me and you tonight]
Are you ready now?
You go fast, I go slow
Light me fuse and your body explodes
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
Are you ready now?
I'm ready now!
If only I were bright
[If only I were bright]
Then I could let go of my brain
Put a tourniquet on your sweet injection into my vein
And oh, that's the stuff
[That's the stuff, that's the stuff you give me it's like a drug]
And I say that you're the drug
Twelve steps wouldn't be enough to kick your just that rough
Make me a crazy, I just can't define
There's not a closet for you in my mind
Oh, but you puzzle me tonight
Let's play with your bits and pieces
You go fast, I go slow
Meet you in the middle just to let you know
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
If it's me and you tonight
[If it's me and you tonight]
Are you ready now?
You go fast, I go slow
Put her on drive and the car just goes
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
Are you ready now?
I'm ready now!
[Baby...]
Oh, I wanna take my time
[I need you, baby]
Oh, if you stay with me, once again
[Once again]
It's a heart attack, heart attack
'Cause I want you so bad...
(Oh, I want you too)
Well I hope
[This lasts]
Forever
[And ever]
You go fast, I go slow
You go fast, I go slow
Meet you in the middle just to let you know
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
If it's me and you tonight
[If it's me and you tonight]
Are you ready now?
You go fast, I go slow
Light my fuse and your body explodes
It's gonna be alright
[It's gonna be alright]
Are you ready now?
I'm ready now!
Are you ready now?
Are you ready now?
[Baby]
Are you ready now?
[Baby]
Are you ready now?
