Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Touch me
Hey, baby
You wanna get intense?
Oh
Ooh-oh
Oh
Oh-ooh, babe
Oh-whoa
Oh-whoa
[Verse 2]
I've always thought I couldn't be caught
'Cause I was a cool and cautious kind
You know I could take love or leave it
You had to make me believe it
Make me believe it
[Verse 3]
I've always tried to keep it inside
To bite my tongue before I'd say
Ooh, you're my one and only
You had to take the time to show me
Show me, yeah, show me, yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
Suddenly love's finally taken my breath away
It's so intense, it doesn't make sense, so intense
(So intense) Out of control, love's blindin' me
Like a brand new light of day, it's so intense
Ooh, so intense
[Verse 5]
I've always said, and you heard me
Good things take their time
They have to blossom and flower
It takes more than a minute or an hour
More than an hour
[Verse 6]
Suddenly love's finally taken my breath away
It's so intense, it doesn't make sense, so intense
(No, no, no, no) Out of control, love's blindin' me
Like a brand new light of day, it's so intense
So
[Verse 7]
Suddenly love's finally taken my breath away
It's so intense, it doesn't make sense, so intense
(No, no, no, no) Out of control, love's blindin' me
Like a brand new light of day, it's so intense
Ooh, baby, yeah
[Verse 8]
Oh, so intense, oh-ooh-oh
I'm not the same
And I'm thankful for the change
You see, I did not invite it
But I won't fight it
'Cause I'm in love with you
[Verse 9]
So intense
Suddenly love's finally taken my breath away
It's so intense, it doesn't make sense, so intense (So)
Out of control, love's blindin' me
Like a brand new light of day, it's so intense
So intense
[Verse 10]
So intense, it's so intense, so intense, so intense
Oh, baby
So intense
So intense, so intense, so intense, so intense
Oh, baby
Whoa-ooh
[Verse 11]
Suddenly love's finally taken my breath away
(So take it away, take it away)
It's so intense, it doesn't make sense, so intense
Out of control, love's blindin' me
Like a brand new light of day
