"So, I whip out my moves, - no not Jagger / More a lackadaisical swagger..."
A song about an instantaneous connection.
lyrics
Do you want me like I want you?
‘Cause your eyes tell me that you do.
You caught me staring cross the room,
But, girl, I caught you looking too.
Far from a smooth operator
My lines could be better
But, I know what I saw
In you was far from dated
Sweet, sophisticated
The sketch my mind had drawn
You’ve got the whole persona
Hips from Barcelona, hot like Arizona
Can’t help being honest
But, I can be a gentleman
Hold the door to let your cool breeze in
Magnetic, I can’t resist
(Pre-chorus)
If you want, I’ll commit
And we can keep it a secret
No one has to know
So, be my undercover lover
Baby, don’t you wanna
Take my hand and go, oh!
(Chorus)
Do you want me like I want you?
Cause your eyes tell me that you do.
You caught me staring cross the room,
But girl I caught you looking too.
There’s nothing more you need to say
You said it glancing cross the way
Just tell me girl if it is true
Do you want me like I want you?
Sing sha, la-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da
Sha, la-da-da, la-da-da, la-da-da.
So, I whip out my moves, no not Jagger
More a lackadaisical swagger
Tends to be hit and miss
Pulled by gravitation
Leave an open invitation
Though what I want is a kiss
(Pre-chorus)
(Chorus)
Throw them words
Out the door
On the verge
Of translating it all on the floor
Peel off the mask
We’re moving too fast
But, we can’t ignore, no
(x2)
That there’s nothing more we need to say
We said it glancing cross the way
And now we’ll see if it is true
Do you want me like I want you?
