Hang up the phone, no need to cry I?ll take you home, it'll be alright Tonight means nothing if we stay Staying here will only breed obsession And I'm already obsessed If everything you see is your possession Then I'm already possessed Careful kid, this is not your song Although it could be before too long Before too long, a lesson learned To stand downwind and watch it burn To the lake, wash away any trace of yesterday I?ll take you home, it'll be alright Tonight means nothing if we stay The night means nothing Staying here will only breed obsession And I'm already obsessed If everything you see is your possession Then I'm already possessed Careful kid, this is not your song Although it could be before too long Had you ever thought of waking up? Undercover, never letting up? Tonight means nothing if we stay The night means nothing Staying here will only breed obsession And I'm already obsessed If everything you see is your possession Then I'm already possessed Careful kid, this is not your song Although it could be before too long Before too long, a lesson learned To stand downwind and watch it burn To the lake, wash away any trace of yesterday Had you ever thought of waking up?
