Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's alright if you love me
It's alright if you don't
I'm not afraid of you runnin' away
Honey, I get the feelin' you won't
[Verse 2]
There is no sense in pretending
Your eyes give you away
Somethin' inside you is feelin' like I do
We said all there is to say
[Chorus]
Baby, breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey, take me through the night
(Baby, baby, breakdown) Breakdown
Now I'm standing here, can't you see? (Ooh-ooh)
Breakdown, it's alright
[Chorus]
It's alright (Ooh-ooh)
It's alright (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Chorus]
Breakdown
Go ahead and give it to me
Breakdown
Honey, take me through the night
(Baby, baby, breakdown) Breakdown
Now I'm standing here, can't you see? (Ooh-ooh)
Breakdown, it's alright
[Chorus]
It's alright (Ooh-ooh)
It's alright (Ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Outro]
Ooh-ooh
