Lights On
♥ The Pierces Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh Oh Oh
Oh Oh Oh

Some people say that I want you for your money
But I really want you for your body
Pleased to meet you baby, I want to be your honey
So let's go tell your daddy and mommy
This won't get any easier now
That your heart is beating in my hand
And I've tried not to destroy you baby
Although we both know I can
Oh you know I can

Make love with the lights on baby
Tell me what you see
Clear the bed to lie on darlin'
Make a mess of me

Here's my dress to try on baby
Let me be your man
I will call you pretty darlin'
Tell me what I am

Oh Oh Oh

Ca-Ca-Ca Can I have your number?
Can I have your baby?
Can we run away together?

I would walk on water
I would walk on fire
I would sell my soul to the devil

This won't get any easier now
That your heart is beating in my hand
And I've tried not to destroy you baby
Even though we both know I can

Make love with the lights on baby
Tell me what you see
Clear the bed to lie on darlin'
Make a mess of me

Here's my dress to try on baby
Let me be your man
I will call you pretty darlin'
Tell me what I am

Make love with the lights on baby
Tell me what you see
Clear the bed to lie on darlin'
Make a mess of me

Here's my dress to try on baby
Let me be your man




I will call you pretty darlin'
Tell me what I am
