Ooh, ooh
Oh, oh
Hey
What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend?
Don't you wanna be more than friends?
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)
I know you think that if we move to soon it would all end
I live in misery when you're not around
And I won't be satisfied till we're taking those vows
There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking
Oh, lovemaking, heartbreaking, soul shaking
What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend?
Don't you wanna be more than friends? (don't you wanna be)
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)
I often fantasize the stars above are watching you
They know my heart and speak to yours like only lovers do
If I could wear your clothes
I'd pretend I was you
And lose control
There'll be some love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking
Oh, love making, heartbreaking, soul shaking (oh yeah)
What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend?
Don't you wanna be more than friends?
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
You have the right to lose control (don't let go)
Running in and out my life has got me so confused
You gotta make the sacrifice, somebody's got to choose
We can make it if we try, for the sake of you and I
Together we can make it right
What's it gonna be 'cause I can't pretend?
Don't you wanna be more than friends? (Oh)
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) (yeah)
You have the right to lose control
You got the right, you got the right (don't let go)
I said you got the right to lose control, yeah, ooh
Don't let go, ooh, hey, oh, oh
Don't let go cause I can't pretend
What's it gonna be cause I can't pretend?
Don't you wanna be more than friends?
And hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go)
Have the right to lose control, don't let go
Lose control, yeah
What's it gonna be?
Don't let go
Don't let go (don't you wanna be?)
Don't let go
Hold me tight and don't let go (don't let go) (don't let go)
