Now as the summer fades, I let you slip away You say I'm not your type, but I can make you sway. It makes you burn to learn, you're not the only one I'd let you be if you put down your blazing gun. Now you've gone somewhere else, far away I don't know if I will find you (find you, find you). But you feel my breath, on your neck Can't believe I'm right behind you (right behind you). 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before And if I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we gone much further than I thought we'd get tonight Sometimes you move so well It's hard not to give in. I'm lost, I can't tell Where you end and I begin. It makes you burn to learn I'm with another man. I wonder if he's half The lover that I am. Now you've gone somewhere else, Far away I don't know if I will find you (find you, find you). But you feel my breath, On your neck Can't believe I'm right behind you (right behind you). 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before And if I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we gone much further than I thought we'd get tonight Baby, baby, please believe me Find it in your heart to reach me Promise not to leave me behind (Promise not to leave me behind) Take me down, but take it easy Make me think but don't deceive me Torture me by taking your time (Talk to me, talk to me) 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before And if I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we gone much further than I thought we'd get tonight 'Cause you keep me coming back for more And I feel a little better than I did before And if I never see your face again, I don't mind 'Cause we gone much further than I thought we'd get tonight
