Every Time

I'm a focus man
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
One day you're gonna break my heart
That's what they told me from the start
But no, no, they don't understand
No matter what they say
You're something I can't just explain
I feel it when you say my name
I took it, not to badge the past
Just what you do for me
But now, I know I need to check myself
Cause if I don't I know I am
You're thinking that I'm going crazy
But I, you're doing what you do so well
And baby there's no body else
Maybe you know you want me instead.
Every time I close my eyes
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is you
All I see is you, yeah yeah
Evey time I hear your name,
Every time that my phone ring
I'm missing you
I'm missing you.
Listen
If this is wrong it can't be right
There's no way I want to fight
I love how you shut it down
yeah, I like it
I swear that this was meant to be,
And I don't care what people think
I'd pay f you lie to me, I'll never know
A way
But I, I know I have to check myself
Cause if I don't I know I am
You're thinking that I'm going crazy
But I, you're doing what you do so well
And baby there's no body else
Maybe you know you want me instead.
Every time I close my eyes
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is you
All I see is you, yeah yeah
Evey time I hear your name,
Every time that my phone ring
I'm missing you
I'm missing you.
Oh yeah Oh yeah
I love what you do to me
Oh yeah Oh yeah
And if I'm blind then I don't want to see, Oh
Every time I close my eyes
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is you
All I see is you
Evey time I hear your name,
Every time that my phone ring
I'm missing you
I'm missing you.
Every time I close my eyes
Every time I close my eyes
All I see is you
All I see is you, yeah
Evey time I hear your name,
Every time that my phone ring
I'm missing you
I'm missing you.
Yeah-ah Oh yeah
