Lyrics[]
[Intro]
Move your... body
I go... crazy
Thinking about you
I Need Your Love!
'Cause I'm on fire!
[Verse 1]
And every time I walk
And every time I see your face
In the night!
I try to be alone
But I can't stop myself today
Think you're mine!
[Pre-Chorus]
Move your... body
To the end of time
I go... crazy
Thinking about you!
[Chorus - Repeat Twice]
I Need Your Love!
'Cause I'm on fire!
I Need Your Love!
Come on, run to me!
I Need Your Love!
I'm getting higher and higher!
Gonna be so free!
[Verse 2]
I need to feel your heart
I need to show you I'm the one
For you now!
I'm gonna find the way
To tell you what to do, my love
Here somehow!
