Oh, yeah Ooh, ooh Oh, oh Hey What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend? Don't you wanna be more than friends? Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) You have the right to lose control (don't let go) I often tell myself that we could be more than just friends I know you think that if we move to soon it would all end I live in misery when you're not around And I won't be satisfied till we're taking those vows There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking Oh, lovemaking, heartbreaking, soul shaking What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend? Don't you wanna be more than friends? (don't you wanna be) Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) You have the right to lose control (don't let go) I often fantasize the stars above are watching you They know my heart and speak to yours like only lovers do If I could wear your clothes I'd pretend I was you And lose control There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking Oh, love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking (oh yeah) What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend? Don't you wanna be more than friends? Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) You have the right to lose control (don't let go) Running in and out my life has got me so confused You gotta make the sacrifice, somebody's got to choose We can make it if we try, for the sake of you and I Together we can make it right What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend? (can't keep running in and out of my life, oh out of my life, oh out of my life, yeah) Don't you wanna be more than friends? (Oh) Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) (yeah) You have the right to lose control (you got the right, you got the right) (don't let go) I said you got the right to lose control, yeah, ooh Don't let go, ooh, hey, oh, oh Don't let go cause I can't pretend What's it gonna be cause I can't pretend?
