Please don't say "I love you"
Those words touch me much too deeply
And they make my core tremble
Don't think you realize the effect you have over me
And please don't come so close
It just makes me want to make you near me always

And please don't kiss me so sweet
It makes me crave a thousand kisses to follow
And please don't touch me like that
Makes every other еmbrace seem pale and shallow
And pleasе don't look at me like that
It just makes me want to make you near me always

And please don't bring me flowers
They only whisper the sweet things I know you'd say
And please don't try to understand me
Your hands already know too much anyway
And please don't come so close
It just makes me want to make you near me always

Oh, woah

And when you look in my eyes
Please know my heart is in your hands
It's nothing that I understand
But when in your arms, you have complete power over me
So be gentle if you please
'Cause my hands are in your hair
But my heart is in your teeth, babe
And it makes me want to make you near me always

Your hands are in my hair
But my heart is in your teeth, babe
And it makes me want to make you near me always
