On the floor now, on the floor now. It's started again, yeah well it's started again. Close the door now, close the door now. Won't you let me in? Why won't you let me in?.
Girl, put on that perfume that I bought you. And wear that sexy dress you never wear. I walk up and ask you for your number. You can act like you don't care.
I showed up last night with roses and candy. New cologne and my old guitar. I sang you love songs and we got buzzed on brandy. I never really dreamed you'd let me take it this far.
My heart beats wild and deep. Every thought in my mind has your name on it. It's hard to breath and I can't speak. Think of your love and just how much I want it.

Well, it was 'bout five till five on a Friday. We were all gettin' ready to go. The boss man started screamin'. His veins began to show. . He said you and you come with me.
I can feel your goodbye comin' like a storm up from the South. The rain'll splatter at the back door, the wind'll whistle 'round the house. So it's you and Howie Johnston somebody told me at the store.
