You make me explain girl
and over again
there ain't no shortcut
nor ways to begin
too many a dream
you must have been spending
but what has it brought ya
in these hours unending

 

I hear you tell me
'ooh baby, why bother?'
but I know that one thing
always leads to another
I must stop you from sending
your long-distance love
and nothin' you're selling
will be rising above

chorus:
Caught up in wishes
you may feel it's alright

but who are you fooling
pledging your love every night

so don't you start wishing
that someday you'll be mine

'cause there is no entry
there's no vacancy sign

You'd better stop rubbin'
'cause rubbing's no goo
to prove you're the better
and leave her I should
but my love is solid
and just like a tattoo
so clear on the outside
but under my skin for you

chorus
