.Take another Take another five

Careful baby Careful darling You got yourself Into such a mess that You can't get out You made your own bed So what the heck can you Complain about You're seventeen but You talk and you wiggle and walk like You're twenty-four Grown men weepin' A ten point temperature Rise everywhere you go And the fact is BRIDGE: You're so fine that you Fool the people You're so fine that you're Foolin' me You're so fine that you Fool the people Ain't so fine when you Fool your own self baby Look out CHORUS: Such a mess It's a funny situation Sassiness Got you up a tree Sticky Wicket Must confess It's an inside instigation No distress You can talk to me Seven-thirty Morning Mr. Price what a Day for school Bright and early Perfect little disguise for The folks you fool Midnight passion Ain't no surprise to me what You're comin' to There's red light flashin' Look out you're goin' too fast, What you gonna do BRIDGE CHORUS: Such a mess... ...no distress You can change it baby London bridge is fallin' frightful sound You can hear me callin' here's your crown In the game you make a circle just to turn around CHORUS:

Look what you've done for me You're makin' more fun for me Troubadour me, destined to be Set in my ways, stuck in my daze You were the butterfly Winkin' at me, makin' my fires fly Brought me romance, taught me to dance Makin' me win, makin' me grin Schoolin' me Breakin' away Your love has opened eyes that couldn't see Breakin' away Your beacon in the night discovered me Show me some parachutes As long as I'm here, bring me some climbing boots Open the door, give me some more Fasten me in, loosen the pin Pull for me Breakin' away Your love has opened eyes that couldn't see Breakin' away Your beacon in the night discovered me Breakin' away Your love has opened eyes that couldn't see Breakin' away Your beacon in the night discovered me Breakin' away Your love has opened eyes that couldn't see Just breakin' away Your beacon in the night discovered me Breakin' away Your love has opened eyes that couldn't see Breakin' away Your beacon in the night discovered me ...

It's all aligned Must be a sign Beauty of nights We fly we hurtle It's universal Call it non verbal If I'll be the moon, will you be my mars If you set me free, I'll reach for the stars You're like a scintilla What a time for you to shine You must be infinite No beginnin' and no end Your light on me Shining endlessly Let's dive deep I don't believe In coincidence, we Chosen to be If I'll be the moon, will you be my mars If you set you set me free, I'll reach for the stars You're like a scintilla What a time for you to shine You must be infinite No beginnin' and no end SCINTILLA! 3x You're like a scintilla What a time for you to shine You must be infinite No beginnin' and no end

Not like this without a single tear We can't just walk away as if It never happened Our kind of love has never Talked in whispers So if it's time to go, Let's do it right and go out loud But not like this without A backward glance Did all our feeling die The moment love was over Well, not in me 'cause I still feel you in my soul So I will leave you Tenderly or bitterly But not like this

Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh I never get sea sick but im in uncharted waters Inner conflict with motion moving me towards ya' I Feel a turn roll up in my tummy when you come around All this nausea Got my heart in my throat Just tryna' tell you things I'm not ready to share with ya' I'm not ready no (I get so) I get nervous when I'm around ya Shy I know, but I'm not, it's what you do to me Bringing out all my insecurities Like oh god I hope she thinks I look good And my intelligence is equal or above I want to intrigue you It's so close It's on the tip of my tongue The words are right there ready to jump and verbalise this feeling Queasy in the stomach having trouble breathing oh (I think I'm bout to) I think I'm bout to throw up Oh oh oh oh Love sick Oh oh oh oh (the) Boats been Rocked My balance is off compass and my Judgments fucked I was planning to wait until you came to me, Wishfully Thinking of what your face would look like on a baby boy or girl Just half of me (I get so) I get nervous when I'm around ya' Shy I know but I'm not it's what you do to me Close right up I feel to tell you things but oh god How would I begin though? Battling my pride, something I'm clutching on to But it's so close It's on the tip of my tongue The words are right there ready to jump and verbalise this feeling Queasy in the stomach having trouble breathing oh (I think I'm bout to) I think I'm bout to throw up Oh oh oh oh Love sick Oh oh oh oh I think I'm bout to throw up, up, up I think I'm Love sick girl, girl Oh oh oh oh woo, woo
