My friends talking me down, I shouldn't hang around you
What do I do? Something that I just need to figure out
Baby, it's a mistake calling you up this late
Hoping you're alone even though I'm already on my way
I can't hold my tongue
You're the one I want, boy
I don't care 'bout love
Whatever this is, it feels right
You're like a one way trip but I'm ready to leave
I've got my mind made up that you've got what I need
'Cause everytime that you look at me, I get weak in my knees
You've got my heart skip-skip, heart skipping a beat
Oh boy, I know it's bad, what you're doing to me
'Cause when I think of you it gets harder to breathe
'Cause everytime that you look at me, I get weak in my knees
You've got my heart skip-skip, heart skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
I'm sitting in my car, wondering what we are
Damn, I did it again
I don't know how I let it come this far
With you, I never learn that's why I never turn back
I've got it bad, all that you gotta do is say the word
I can't hold my tongue
You're the one I want, boy
I don't care 'bout love
Whatever this is, it feels right
You're like a one way trip but I'm ready to leave
I've got my mind made up that you've got what I need
'Cause everytime that you look at me, I get weak in my knees
You've got my heart skip-skip, heart skipping a beat
Oh boy, I know it's bad, what you're doing to me
'Cause when I think of you it gets harder to breathe
'Cause everytime that you look at me, I get weak in my knees
You've got my heart skip-skip, heart skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip, skipping a beat
You've got my heart skip-skipping a beat
