Lyrics
Lost in a dream
I don't know which way to go (I let you say it)
If you are all that you seem
Then baby I'm movin' way too slow
Straight up now tell me
Do you really want to love me forever? (Oh oh oh)
Or am I caught in a hit and run
Straight up now tell me
Is it gonna be you and me together? (Oh oh oh)
Are you just having fun
Do, do you love me?
I've been a fool before
Wouldn't like to get my love caught
In the slammin' door
Are you more than hot for me
Or am I a page in your history book
I don't mean to make demands
But the word and the deed go hand in hand
How about some information, please, please
Ahh please-please, please
I was in love the moment that I saw you
I followed you through the crowd and I almost lost you
You've got me knocked out turn me inside out
It's you that makes my heart beat
You've got me knocked out
Baby, there's no doubt
You swept me off of my feet
It ain't fiction, just a natural fact
We come together
Baby seems we never ever agree
You like the movies and I like TV
I take things serious and you take 'em light
But when we get together it just all works out
I take, two steps forward, I take, two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Two steps forward, Two steps back
We come together 'cause opposites attract
And you know it ain't fiction just a natural fact
We come together 'cause opposites attract
Baby pick your head up
Come on and look me in the face
Baby just remember I gave you my heart
Ain't no one gonna tear us apart
He could promise the moon
And the stars above
Even if he promised me the world
Just remember I'm forever your girl (just remember)
(He could promise the world) hey baby
Just remember (I'm forever your girl)
(Alright baby eehhh)
(Always will be)
Such a mess, such a funny feeling
I must confess, I never felt like this before
Runnin' hot, runnin' my emotions
Your lovin' shock, goes through me like an open door
My heart's in animation
And beating in double time
State of attraction
Somehow you make my body come alive
My arms wanna hold ya
My lips wanna kiss
You make me want to want you
(The way that you love me)
(It's just the way that you love me) baby
(The way that you love me)
(It's just the way that you love me) but baby
It ain't the clothes that you wear
It ain't the things that you buy
It ain't your house on the hill
It ain't the plane that you fly
It ain't the money or the diamond rings
Honey, I ain't impressed with your material things
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me
The way that you love me
It's just the way that you love me (baby)
He's a cold-hearted snake (girl)
Look into his eyes (oh oh oh)
(Oh-oh) girl don't play the fool, no
How come how come he can he can tell-a tell-a you're-a you're-a
Always-always number-number one without a doubt
When-a when-a he is he is always-always squirmin'-squirmin'
Like a little snake under-a e-ver-y-a rock
You've been, you've been workin'-workin' on the on the love
And he's been only-only playing undercover all the while
Take a, take another 'nother look into his eyes
And you will only see a reptile
All the world's a candy store
He's been trick or treatin'
When it comes to true love girl with him there's no one home
He's a cold-hearted snake (girl)
Look into his eyes
Oh-oh
He's been tellin' lies
He's a lover boy at play (girl)
He don't play by rules (oh oh)
(Oh-oh) girl don't play the fool, no
Girl don't play the fool, no
Girl don't play the fool, no
