Lyrics
Makin' Up
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey you - what's your problem - I been mystified
You might come from a different city - your body talks just like mine
Some things get misunderstood - and we can't stop the fight
But there's one thing that we don't disagree on putting right
(Chorus)
Makin' up - makin' up by makin' love
Makin' up - makin' up by makin' love
Hey I don't need to be teased - I'm no suicide
You might think I'm on the edge - just about to dive
Don't look back or turn around - when you say you've gone for sure
'Cos every night when talk gets cheap - you still come back for more
(Chorus)
Hey little dream maker - you can stick the cream
I've abused so many times - I don't believe in me
It's the best if I suggest - and you just try to please
There's one thing we both agree - can end hostility
(Chorus)
