(When I say I'm in love)

(You best believe I'm in love)

(L-U-V!)

I always saw you, just before the dawn

When all the other kids, were just dragging along

I couldn't believe the way it seemed to be

Remembering the things, you used to say to me

(About)

You know I can't be wasting time

'Cause I gotta have my fun

I gotta get some fun

I gotta to keep on moving

Can't stop till it's all done

And I'm never done

Listen when I tell ya, you got no time for fits

'Cause I just gotta make it, can't afford to miss

And there's one reason, I'm telling you this

I feels bad

And I'm a looking for a kiss

Well, wontcha tell me why those kids are moving so slow

Is it that they just don't have a place to go

When the day starts breaking, the Sun is gonna shine

It's hard to sleep, if I been crying

(And)

All the old ladies that are on their way to church

(You go to church)

Baby, here I be a' roaming, while a looking

Gotta get to a search, I keep on searching

Listen when I tell ya, you got no time for fits

'Cause I just gotta make it, can't afford to miss

If there's one reason, I'm telling you this

I feels bad, bad, bad

And I'm looking for a kiss

Well I been looking for a real hot kiss

Come on, kiss me

You think it's bad, but you know it's true

So why won't you just look here baby

When I'm looking for a kiss

When everyone goes to your house, they shoot up in your room

Most of them are beautiful, but so obsessed with gloom

I ain't gonna be here, when they all get home

They're always looking at me, they won't leave me alone

I didn't come here, looking for no fix

(I-I-I know)

I been hounding the streets all night late baby

Just a looking for a kiss

I need a fix and a kiss

I need a fix and a kiss

I need a fix and a kiss

I'm a looking for a kiss

I didn't come here, looking for no fix

(I-I-I know)

I been hauling booty, all night long baby

Just a looking for a kiss
