Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been casually defeated in the past
So I'm tryin' hard to reach you but not ask
I get on fine but if I'm wrong, I'd be a drag
So tell me straight 'cause it's gettin' late
[Verse 2]
I want you, I think
You need me, I think
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Let me entertain you, take our time
Don't just leave me waitin' for a sign
You can lay your body here tonight
Tiptoe, got we walkin' on a wire
Goddamn, I'm a man on fire
[Verse 4]
It don't have to get too serious with me
It's as simple as the one, the two and three
But we could be paper dolls and polkadots and diamond rings
But either way, I don't wanna wait, no, no
[Verse 5]
I want you, I think
You need me, I think
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 6]
Let me entertain you, take our time
Don't just leave me waitin' for a sign
You can lay your body here tonight
Oh, tiptoe, got me walkin' on a wire
Goddamn, I'm a man on fire
[Verse 7]
All my friends have gone home
I've got you alone
We're hand-in-hand
Squeeze three times for yes
Don't put on your coat
That's somethin' we'd both regret
The best ain't happened yet
[Verse 8]
Let me entertain you, take our time
Don't just leave me waitin' for a sign
You can lay your body here tonight
Tiptoe, got we walkin' on a wire
Oh, you're too good
Goddamn, I'm a man on fire
Oh, you got me walkin' on a wire
Tiptoe, got we walkin' on a wire
Oh yes, you do
Goddamn, I'm a man on fire
