I’m out of body, I need someone else

Stuck in the lobby of the one hotel

You’re looking at me like you know me well

Ooh-whoa-oh-oh

Don’t lie, don’t lie

I know you see me when you close your eyes

Make me believe it, baby, let me try

The things you got me doing in your mind

Your mind

You’re mine

When you

Picture you and me alone

Da-da-da, da-da-done

It’s not hard to figure out

Da-da-da, da-da-done

Just take me there somehow

Da-da-da, da-da-done

You should be mine by now

Da-da-da, da-da-done
