Lyrics

Roll and I'll just feel something
It's hard to be
Yeah, it's hard for me to keep arm's length from my baby
Whoa, can't you see
When I'm away from her, it sho'nuff drive me crazy
Oh, something inside of me
When she's gone, I miss her so
I wanna tell her how I feel
I just gotta let her know
When I'm alone with her
And she's in my arms, I'm in heaven
It's all I see
In all my dreams, we'll be happy together
Side by side
I hope that our love will stay this way forever
Oh, something inside of me
Got a feelin' that won't let go
I wanna tell her how I feel
I just gotta let her know
Lookin' through her eyes
I see paradise, no mistake, she's full of fire
Like a real live wire, house on fire
She's my burnin', she's my burnin', burnin' desire
Well, it's hard to be
Yeah, it's hard for me to keep arm's length from my baby
Oh, can't you see
When I'm away from her, yeah, it sho'nuff drive me crazy
Oh, something inside of me
When she's gone, I miss her so
I wanna tell her how I feel
I just gotta let her know
When I'm alone with her
And she's in my arms, I'm in heaven
Like a real live wire, a house on fire
She's my burnin', she's my burnin', burnin' desire
Hard to be, hard for me
Hard to keep, keep me from my baby
Hard to be, it's so hard for me
Hard to keep, keep me from my baby
Hard to be, it's so hard for me
Hard to keep, keep me from my baby
Hard to be, hard for me
Hard for me, keep me from my baby
Hard to be, it's so hard for me
Hard to keep, keep me from my baby
