Hands touch all night, I remember
I stayed behind, and you were tender
In my whole life, I wish I never knew this kind of love
I'm keeping company
Company with all the friends I got from you
It's not easy to sever
Think you're onto me
Hard to keep it cool, I know you want me to
I'm trying to keep away from you
Gonna need some land between our bodies, though
I'm trying to keep away from you
I can't control the things I do
God, I miss your hands over my body, though
I'm trying to keep away from you
Wake up, this time it's now or never
You've made your mind up and I surrender
My heart was blind
I wish I never knew this kind of love
I'm keeping company
Company with all the friends I got from you
It's not easy to sever
Think you're onto me
Hard to keep it cool, I know you want me to
It takes all of my pride
I'm trying to keep away from you
Gonna need some land between our bodies, though
I'm trying to keep away from you
I can't control the things I do
God, I miss your hands over my body, though
I'm trying to keep away from you
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Been trying to keep away from you
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Been trying to keep away from you
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Been trying to keep away from you
Just one look at you and I'm all out of reasons
Waking up, making up for the lost time
Just one word from you and I'm all out of reasons
Close the door, I’ve been yours for the longest time
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
God, I miss your hands over my body
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
Keep away, away
God, I miss your hands over my body
