Why don't you say you don't
You don't have any love to give
You don't have many tears to lend
Why did you say that
You need someone to keep you warm
While sliding your hands down the back of my arms
Because I try and I try to forget the way
Your hips and your lips, move me
And I lie and I lie to my poor old hands
Telling them when they touch you, you really do, feel it
But we both know that ain't true
Cause, one look was all it took
With those greedy eyes, those greedy eyes
You got me howlin' baby
At an empty sky, with no moon nearby
Why did you steal a kiss
I was saving that for somebody else
But you got a way of making me forget myself
You're curling toes with mine
Running your fingers through my hair
Clinching your thighs gasping for some air
Because I try and I try to forget the way
Your eyes hypnotize, like a gypsy in disguise
And I die oh I die a little bit inside
Knowin' when I see you cry, your eyes are dry
Oh baby, why do you do this to me
Cause, one look was all it took
With those greedy eyes, those greedy eyes
You got me howlin' baby
At an empty sky, with no moon nearby
One look was all it took
With those greedy eyes, those greedy eyes
You got me howlin' baby
At an empty sky, with no moon nearby
