[Verse 1]
Making love to a picture frame
One more time tonight
You can tell by the lines in her smile
Something is not right
Where are you hiding? (hiding)
She's on the outside
I'm on the inside crying (crying)
Just another crazy boy
Hungry for your

[Chorus]
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was

[Verse 2]
I tried and tried and tried and tried
But I have no concept of consequence
And I'm a master of self defense
Days get longer
Life gets shorter
She rips me like no other
So oh dripping from head to toe
Where are you hiding (hiding)
She's on the outside
I'm on the inside crying (crying)

[Chorus]
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
The way I was
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was

[Verse 3]
I can't make the same mistake
If you lose my love
It was yours to take
Break down your door
Take a little more
When I need you around

[Verse 4]
And I'm so terrified of leaving
It's a new low
Try and pick me up again but
Let go see how far I get without you
Desperately need more of your

[Chorus]
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was
Hot love
Wrap yourself around me like a warm glove
The emptiness leaves me and I'm filled up
Never need to go back to the way I was
The way I was

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
