The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
Please wrap your drunken arms around me And I'll let you call me yours tonight Cause slightly broken's just what I need And if you give me what I want Then I'll give you what you like Please tell me I'm your one and only Or lie and say at least tonight I've got a brand new cure for lonely And if you give me what I want Then I'll give you what you like When you turn off the lights I get stars in my eyes Is this love? Maybe someday So don't turn on the lights I'll give you what you like Emotions aren't that hard to borrow When was the word you never learned And in a room of empty bottles If you don't give me what I want Then you'll get what you deserve When you turn off the lights I get stars in my eyes Is this love? Maybe someday I've got this scene in my head I'm not sure how it ends Is it love? Maybe one day So don't turn on the lights I'll give you what you like I'll give you what you like I'll give you one last chance to hold me If you give me one last cigarette By now it's only in the morning Now that I gave you what you want All I want is to forget When you turn off the lights I get stars in my eyes Is this love? Maybe someday I've got this scene in my head I'm not sure how it ends Is it love? Maybe one day So don't turn on the lights I'll give you what you like
