LYRICS

Mmm, hmm , i mean it
(I mean it)
Don’t say it, babe
(Don’t say it, babe)
Hear me now now
Said: “Ah, please don’t turn me on”
No, no listen, listen

[Verse 1: Lifford]
Baby, won’t you keep your distance
You’re getting too close to me
I’ve been feeling my resistance
Melting away, but she said she wouldn’t mind
If i spent a little time
Said you were a friend of mine
She could trust me out of sight
Now two bottles later on
And i think i stayed too long
I forget where i belong

Saying please don’t turn me on
It’s getting late i know i should be gone
Don’t push me cause i’m not that strong
(No, no, no, no)
You can never make it right from wrong
(No, no, no, no)
Please don’t touch me there
Stop playing with my mind it’s not fair
When you know I’ve got another who cares
And she’s waiting for me somewhere out there, yeah!

Don’t say “my love” is too familiar
Cause she’s everything to me
Don’t say what she don’t know won’t kill her
(Oh!)
I’m playing away
Put your hands where i can see
Baby, you know what i mean
Cause you’re looking good to me
And you know I feel the heat
As you button up your dress
And I wake up in your bed
With a head full of regrets

Saying please don’t turn me on
It’s getting late I know I should be gone
Don’t push me cause I’m not that strong
(No, no, no, no)
You can never make it right from wrong
(No, no, no, no)
Please don’t touch me there
Stop playing with my mind it’s not fair
(Oh no!)
When you know i’ve got another who cares
(She cares about me)
And she’s waiting for me
(And she loves me)
Somewhere out there
(And she needs me)

Don’t want to lose the love I have
Cause once it’s gone can’t take it back
You know that I want to
Don’t matter what I hear you say
I see the look that’s in your eyes
(No, no)
