Album: Makes Me Wonder (International Version) - Single

Track No: 02

Making love to a picture frame
One more time tonight
You can tell by the lines in her smile
Something is not right
Where are you hiding? (Hiding)
She's on the outside
I'm on the inside crying (Crying)
Just another crazy boy
Hungry for your
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
I've tried and tried and tried and tried
But I have no concept of consequence
And I'm a master of self defense
Days get longer, life gets shorter
She rips me like no other
So oh dripping from head to toe
Where are you hiding (Hiding)
She's on the outside
I'm on the inside crying (Crying)
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
I can't make the same mistake
If you lose my love, it was yours to take
Break down your door, take a little more
When I need you around
And I'm so terrified of leaving, it's a new low
Try and pick me up again but
Let go see how far I get without you
Desperately need more of your
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
