(Mwah!)

(Mwah!)
When you look at me, tell me what do you see?
This is what you get it's the way I am
When I look at you I wanna be, I wanna be somewhere close to heaven with Neanderthal man
Don't go, I know you want to touch me
Here there and everywhere
Sparks fly when we are together, you can't deny the facts of life

You don't have to act like a star
Tryin' moves in the back your car
Don't you know that we can go far
'Cause tonight you gonna get my-
Don't play the games that you play
'Cause you know that I won't run away
Why ain't you asking me to stay
'Cause tonight I'm gonna give you my-

You could be my baby, what's your star sign?
Won't you take a step into the lion's den?
I can hear my conscience calling me, calling me, say I'm gonna be a bad girl again
Why don't you come on over, we can't leave this all undone
Got the devil on my shoulder, there's no place for you to run

You don't have to act like a star
Tryin' moves in the back your car
Don't you know that we can go far
'Cause tonight you gonna get my-
Don't play the games that you play
'Cause you know that I won't run away
Why ain't you asking me to stay
'Cause tonight I'm gonna give you my-

If you forget, I'll remind you
If you're paranoid, I'm behind you
If you lose your head, I'll find you
Sending you my kiss
If you forget, I'll remind you
If you're paranoid, I'm behind you
If you lose your head, I'll find you, kiss kiss

(Mwah!)

(Oh yeah) you don't have to act like a (uh)
Tryin' moves in the back of your (uh, uh, uh)

Overall Meaning

Why ain’t you asking me to stay? ‘Cause tonight I’m gonna give you my-“.
