Do you mind if I call you lover tonight

I know you said we had to cool down

Until you made up your mind

Could it be so bad if your friends know

You let me in through your back door

I knew it would be like this

I told you so

Did you know that I saw you walking downtown

I knew it was you because your eyes never left the ground

Did you know that I can't sleep

I can't think baby I can't eat

I knew it would be like this

I told you so

I can feel it getting under your skin

No use fighting baby let me in

I can feel it coming on

It's getting kinda strong

And there's nowhere to run

I told you so

And it'll never feel right

In the middle of the night

Unless I'm holding you tight

I told you so

You can't stop this world from spinning around

You can't stop what goes up from coming back down

You can't stop burning in the fire

Now you can't stop our lethal desire

It's the truth

I told you so

So come on baby come on

It goes so easy

And nights are getting so cold

It's starting to freeze me

I can tell by the sound of your voice

You're getting pretty close to making your choice

I knew it would be like this

I told you so

I feel it getting under your skin

No use fighting honey let me in

Can't you feel it coming on?

It's getting kinda strong

And there's nowhere to run

I told you so

Oh it will never feel right

In the middle of the night

Unless I'm holding you tight

I told you so

I know you feel like you've taken your two hands

And you've torn out your heart

But I said it would be just like this babe

Right from the start

Ohh

Do you mind if I call you lover tonight

I know you said we had to cool down

Until you made up your mind

Oh don't you feel it coming on?

Oh it's getting kinda strong

And there's nowhere to run

I told you so

Oh babe and it'll never feel right

In the middle of the night

Unless I'm holding you tight

I told you so

I told you so

I told you so

I told you so
