One night stand
Big City Kids Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I want to plan my addiction
I want to take every chance, rob a bank, make the money and run.
Oh its time to find adrenaline.

I wanna move you till your fingers sweat,
and have you going till you're out of breath,
oh tonight we're making history...until you're history to me.

its the way that you move
you move so well
and by your eyes baby i can tell
its no surprise, you and i, have had this going on all night.
I wanna move you till your fingers sweat,
and have you going till you're out of breath,
oh tonight we're making history...until you're history to me.

hey little one night stand don't you wanna get one step closer to me?
i can see it in your eyes girl, oh tonight, you're letting me in..
you're letting me in i know...
(2nd 1/2)
i can see it in your eyes

its just for the night,
its all that you need, its all that you need...from me.
