Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On a hot summer night
Would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Will he offer me his mouth?
Yes
Will he offer me his teeth?
Yes
Will he offer me his jaws?
Yes
[Verse 2]
Will he offer me his hunger?
Yes
Again, will he offer me his hunger?
Yes
And will he starve without me?
Yes
And does he love me?
Yes
Yes
[Verse 3]
On a hot summer night
Would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?
Yes
I bet you say that to all the boys
[Verse 4]
It was a hot summer night and the beach was burnin'
There was fog crawlin' over the sand
When I listen to your heart, I hear the whole world turnin'
I see the shootin' stars fallin' through your tremblin' hands
[Verse 5]
Ah, you were lickin' your lips, and your lipstick shinin'
I was dyin' just to ask for a taste
Ah, we were lyin' together in a silver linin'
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste
[Verse 6]
Oh, well, you hold me so close that my knees grow weak
But my soul is flyin' high above the ground
I'm tryin' to speak, but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound
[Verse 7]
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, and I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
(Love you)
[Verse 8]
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, and I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
(Love you)
[Verse 9]
Now my body is shakin' like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginnin' to grin
Ah, we're finally alone and we can do what we wanna
Oh, the night is young
Ain't no one gonna know where you
No one gonna know where you
No one's gonna know where you've been
[Verse 10]
Ah, you were lickin' your lips, and your lipstick shinin'
I was dyin' just to ask for a taste
Ah, we were lyin' together in a silver linin'
By the light of the moon
You know there's not another moment to waste
[Verse 11]
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, and I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
(Love you)
[Verse 12]
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, and I swear it's true
I was just about to say I love you
(Love you)
[Verse 13]
And then you took the words right out of my mouth
(It must've been while you were kissin' me)
Oh, you took the words right out of my mouth
(It must've been while you were kissin' me)
Oh, you took the words right out of my mouth
(It must've been while you were kissin' me)
Oh, you took the words right out of my mouth
(It must've been while you were kissin' me)
[Verse 14]
Whoa, you took the words right out of my mouth
Whoa, you took the words right out of my mouth
Whoa-oh, oh, oh, yeah
Whoa, you took the words right out of my mouth
[Verse 15]
Oh, you took the words right out of my mouth
Whoa, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
[Verse 16]
You took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must've been while you were kissin' me
You took the words right out of my mouth
