When We Do It
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When we do it
(the great big it)
I hope it's we and not just me
When we do it
Something happens
And it's bigger than the both of us
And for a second
There's no trouble
And the world outside goes away
The clock on the wall
Between us stops
Then the world outside blows away
You make me lose my body
And nothing could be better
You make me lose my body
It's like we've died and gone to heaven
You make me lose my body
When we do it
(the universal it)
I know it's we and not just me
When we do it
