Tanaë Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Playing to win yeah silent and cold, I never thought that I could lose
Head over heart till the first time we touched and we burnt the whole night through
Your kisses feel like summer with a taste of stormy weather
Boy you got me on the loose
Listen listen It's just for tonight
Cause I can't get my mind off you
Let me show you what lovers do
Listen, listen, listen
I can't get my mind off you
Listen, listen, listen
Let me show you what lovers do
You roped me in with all of your charms and every word they rang so true
Said I was different, one of a kind, how many others heard it too?
You got no time to stay up on the line, I see you hiding in full view
Been playing hard to get you're even harder to forget cause baby all I want is you
Listen listen It's just for tonight
Cause I can't get my mind off you
Listen listen Yeah I'll make you mine
Let me show you what lovers do
Listen, listen, listen
I can't get my mind off you
Listen, listen, listen
Let me show you what lovers do
Boy I'm getting tired of all the games we play
You were hurt before but it doesn't it fair
I'm not asking for forever and a day
But won't you stay the night cause everything could be so easy
Listen listen It's just for tonight
Cause I can't get my mind off you
Listen listen Yeah I'll make you mine
Let me show you what lovers do
Listen, listen, listen
I can't get my mind off you
Listen, listen, listen
I'll show how lovers do
Listen, listen
I'll show how lovers do
Listen, listen
