Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I wait up
To see your face
I've had enough
And now I'm out of the race
[Verse 2]
We both went wrong
[Verse 3]
Just say I want you
I want you
I want you
I know that you're different
[Verse 4]
Taking your clothes off
'Cause you're comfortable in my room
Trying to hold off
While I hold onto you
[Verse 5]
We both went wrong
[Verse 6]
Just say I want you
I want you
I want you
I know that you're different
Just say I love you
I love you
I love you
I love that you're different
[Verse 7]
I know that you're different
I, I know that you're different
[Verse 8]
I want you
I want you
I want you
I know that you're different
I love you
I love you
I love you
I love that you're different
[Verse 9]
I know that you're different
[Verse 10]
There's a hurricane of roses on my back
Hands on the dashboard, don't look back
The hurricane of roses on my back
