Baby, you're only a sleeping beauty for a little while
Hoping no prince heats up your day
That you can be lonely all this time in unbelievable
Playing deaf and dumb, just afraid

Gotta be high when you're walking an fire
If you Want To
Gotta be cool when you're breaking the rules
Because you Want To
Gotta be strong, really got to move on
I know you Want To
Gotta be true, you do what you do
Because you Want To
Don't cha Want To
And you wanna babe
I know you

Go with your urges, holding back is just a puppy show
You don't need so be-bop to play
Whatever you think your friends might say is immaterial
What they don't know might show you the way

Gotta be high when you're walking on fire
If you want to
Gotta be cool when you're breaking the rules
Because you want to
Gotta be strong, yeah you carry on
I know you want to
Gotta be true, you do what you do
Because you Want To
Don't cha Want To
You know you Want To
Because it feels right
Because it won't bite

Now that you've found your way around, you want to run to me
Hey don't waste no time
See that sleeping beauty waking up beside-a me
Making me feel so good just to see you smile

Gotta be high when you're walking an fire
If you Want To
Gotta be cool when you're breaking the rules
Because you Want To
Gotta be strong, really got to move on
I know you Want To
Gotta be true, you do what you do
Because you Want To
Don't cha Want To
And you wanna babe
I know you

Gotta desire when you're walking on fire
I know you Want To
Gotta be free when you're walking with me
Don't you Want To
Maybe it's time to do what you do
Because you Want To
Gotta be high when you're walking on fire
Don't cha Want To

Hall & Oates

Hall & Oates released the first of their 18 albums in 1972 on Atlantic Records. They would go on to sell 13 million albums and 6 million singles primarily during the 70’s and 80’s when they recorded their most prolific and profound music. They blended rock, jazz, soul, and pop create a genre they titled rock and soul.

While their technical musicianship, innovative songwriting styles, and popular live performances were praised, they also had a fruitful partnership with their manager Tommy Mottola, who was helped Hall & Oates break into music videos before they were popular and made profitable financial deals by helping them get on the ground level of and corporate sponsorship of tours. Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014.
