Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I tried your mouth and I can't come back

So little time and I'm way off track

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

[Verse 2]

The city's so hard when you sleep alone

I need your hands when you drive me home

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

[Verse 3]

But I can't take much more of your hesitating

Both our hands speak for us and complicate it

My home is your body

How can I stay away?

[Verse 4]

And if my love's too strong for you, walk away

But I can't make this wrong when I see your face

My home is your body

How can I stay away?

[Verse 5]

Oh, if it was only an attraction

How come nobody ever felt this way?

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?

[Verse 6]

Oh, you were a party to the action

I think nobody ever felt this way

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?

[Verse 7]

Wherever I go I still see your face

So little time there's no time to waste

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

[Verse 8]

Reading your mind's getting hard to do

Breaking my heart if you don't come through

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

I can't stay away

(Away away away away)

[Verse 9]

But, I can't take much more of your hesitating

Both our hands speak for us and complicate it

My home is your body

How can I stay away?

[Verse 10]

And if my love's too strong for you, walk away

But I can't make this wrong when I see your face

My home is your body

How can I stay away?

[Verse 11]

Oh, if it was only an attraction

How come nobody ever felt this way?

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?

[Verse 12]

Oh, you were a party to the action

I think nobody ever felt this way

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?

[Verse 13]

Those sweet summer lies

Your night after night

Come closer I'll hold you

I need you now, now

[Verse 14]

It's still on my mind

Yeah time after time

Come closer, come closer

[Verse 15]

Oh, if it was only an attraction

How come nobody ever felt this way?

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?

[Verse 16]

Oh, you were a party to the action

I think nobody ever felt this way

If it was only a distraction

How come I can't stay away?
