Spoken Intro:

Where did he touch you

And how did it feel

Aand why did you let it begin

What did he whisper and when did you cry

And where do you think it will end

How long did you do it and why did you stop

Did you get to try anything new

How good was he honestly and were did you go

And who made the very first move

You don't have to sneak in the door

Just come on into the room

I've been lying in our bed in the dark all alone

And I've been waiting, I've been waiting for you

There's been no reason to move

It's been as still as a tomb

I needed you oh, so badly tonight

But I guess you had better things to do

I should have known that it was coming to this

But I must have been blind

I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes

And you still got his eyes on your mind

You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock

Now it's a quarter to three

And whatever you got and whoever it was

I guess you couldn't get it from me

I know that you love me, there's no need to talk

I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof

And there are no lies on your body, so take off your dress

I just want to get at the truth

I know that you love me, there's no need to talk

I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof

And there are no lies on your body, so take off your dress

I just want to get at the truth

And there are so many things that I just got to know

You tell me who! You tell me where! You tell me when!

But don't tell me now, I don't need any answers tonight

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

Left in the dark again

I should have known that it was coming to this

But I must have been blind

I bet you still got a trace of his love in your eyes

And you still got his eyes on your mind

You swore you'd be with me at 7 o'clock

Now it's a quarter to three

And whatever you got and whoever it was

I guess you couldn't get it from me

I guess you couldn't get it from me

But down in my soul, down in my soul

I know - I know that you love me, there's no need to talk

I see the look in your eyes and I got the proof

And there are no lies on your body, so take off your dress

I just want to get at the truth

There are so many things that I just got to know

You tell me who! You tell me where! You tell me when!

But don't tell me now, I don't need any answers tonight

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

I just need some love so turn out the lights

And I'll be left in the dark again

Left in the dark again....

Spoken Ending

Did he ever get rough

Did you ever get tender

Did it leave any scars

Do you expect them to heal

What did he look like

Did he remind you of me

Where you willing to beg or to kneel

Did he keep his eyes open

Did you bother to look

Or was he only a kid after all

Where did he touch you

And how did it feel

If you need hin again will he still be on call

And who made the very first move

Who made the very first move

Who made the very first move...
