Are you gonna make your way back here?
Who rattled your cage? Who rattled your cage?
Are you gonna make your way back here?
Where modesty pays where modesty pays
Are you gonna make your way back here?
The world’s your stage the world’s your stage
Are you gonna make your way back here?
Who rattled your cage? Who rattled your cage?
God you know I love it
When you say you miss me madly true
God you know I love it
When you say you miss me madly
I got it badly
I love you sadly
You’re the object who owns my affection
Nerves of steel turn in my direction
My desire and my intention yeah
You’re the deal world without limits
Ours to steal and everybody in it
Come and find me in the Motor Hotel, yeah
I ain't never gonna get you back here
But I'm in denial I'm in denial
I ain't never gonna get you back here
Tomorrow’s child tomorrow’ child
I ain't never gonna get you back here
Got plenty of time plenty of time
I ain't never gonna get you back here
I'm out of my depth I'm out my depth
God you know I love it
When you say you miss me madly true
God you know I love it
When you say you miss me madly
I got it badly
I love you sadly
You’re the object who owns my affection
Nerves of steel turn in my direction
My desire and my intention yeah
You’re the deal world without limits
Ours to steal and everybody in it
Come and find me in the Motor Hotel, yeah
You’re the object who owns my affection
Nerves of steel turn in my direction
My desire and my intention yeah
You’re the deal world without limits
Ours to steal and everybody in it
Come and find me in the Motor Hotel, yeah
