Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been waiting on you
I've got the feeling that's right
And by the look on your face,
everything's in place
I'm gonna meet you tonight,
I'm gonna meet you tonight yeah!

You wanna do it your way

Well girl that's turning me on
But in another day there'll be another way
That you'll be outta sight we gotta

We got just one time

I know the way you kiss
You got that look in your eye
I got a taste in my mouth
Why did we leave it so late
Now I'm starting to shake
Please don't turn out the light
Can't get enough of your blush
I wanna head for the line should i be

We got just one night
Come on Rebekah yeah
