Sitting at the edge of the bed 
One million thoughts as I reflect. 
Tease me just a little I'm not hard to persuade 
fully aware for this that I might pay. 
Not too much that can be said 
Thinking about the bad things in my head, 
Always wondering if what they said was true 
Now I'm in the bed with... 
Even though she was no stranger, 
Chose the one keep me out of danger. 
No song and dance just jump right in. 

Fought the urge to do it skin to skin 
What the hell here I go jump right in 

Standing in the doorway of distress 
Ask MD, for ways out of this mess, 
A wave of panic every time I lose a hair 
I believe I'm falling apart but not quite despair. 
Turns into this one thing I just can't ignore 
Don't know what I am feeling anymore 
I guess it's time to end this affair 
Like I don't care I don't care. 

Fought the urge to do it skin to skin 
What the hell here I go jump right in 

Even though she was no stranger 
Chose the one keep me out of danger 
No song and dance I took my chances with her 
No time to waste. 
Just jump right in I said to her 
Stand in the doorway of distress 
No time to waste just jump right in, 

Fought the urge to do it skin to skin 
What the hell here I go jump right in
