Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my head
When you pull me back down
And you push me to bed
Oh I love what you do to my head
It's a mess up there
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my heart
When you push me back down
And then pull me apart
I love what you do to my heart
It's the best oh yeah!
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my lips
When you suck me inside
And you blow me a kiss
Oh I love what you do to my lips
It's so sweet in there
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my hips
When you blow me outside
And then suck me like this
Oh I love what you do to my hips
It's the beat oh yeah!
You're the only one I cry for
You're the only one I try to please
You're the only one I sigh for
You're the only one I die to squeeze
And it gets better every day I play
With you
It's such a scream
Yeah it gets better every day I say
With you
It's so extreme
Yeah it gets wetter every day I stay
With you it's like a dream
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my skin
When you slip me on
And slide me in
What you do to my skin
It's a blush on there
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to my bones
When you slide me up
And slide me home
What you do to my bones
It's the crush oh yeah!
You're the only one I cry for
You're the only one I try to please
You're the only one I sigh for
You're the only one I die to squeeze
And it gets better every day I say with you
It's such a scream
Yeah it gets mazier every play I say with you
It's so extreme
Yeah it gets crazier every day I stay
With you it's like a dream
Oh I love oh I love oh I love
What you do to me
