Collage & Denine Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Girl don't you know
I can't let you go
I want you all the time, all the time
Now can't you see
What you're doing to me
I've got to make you mine, make you mine
Boy you should know
Before I let it go
You got to treat me right, treat me right
Boy can't you see
That I want you and me
Because you look tight, I want you tonight
Chorus:
Love me or leave me
Don't you dare deceive me
Can't you see I'm at the point of no return
Repeat (1x)
Love me or leave me
Don't you deceive me
Repeat (1x)
Can't you see I'm at the point of no return
Girl now I know
Your hearts touch and go
I know you cry, I know you cry
Girl just believe
That I won't deceive
I'm gonna make you mine, I'll make you mine
Boy can't you see
If you want to be with me
You've gotta feel alright, you feel alright
Boy desperately
If you want what you see
You better do it right, I can do it all night
Chorus (1x)
Girl don't you know
I love to be the man who turns you on
Could you be the man who turns me on
Give you the love you're dreamin' of
c'mon girl, I can keep it strong
c'mon baby, keep it strong
Can't you feel my heart beats beating
Don't you leave girl, time is fleeting
You must know that you're the only one




So get ready 'cause here I come
Chorus (1x)
