Lyrics:

[English]

There you are with your college friends

You played in their marching band

I can't help but wish I knew you then

But I guess I know you now

It looks as if I stumbled right into the palm of your hand

Hey, you

Hey, Mr. Knock-On-My-Door

I'm sorry that I've been emotions galore

Am I crazy for wantin' a little bit more?

A little more of you

A little more, a little more of you

This feelin's hard to ignore

Please, say you'll never get bored

Can you blame me for wantin' a little bit more?

A little more of you

A little more, a little more of you

Say that it's the same

Take a drill right to my brain

Oh, the way you did just yesterday

I guess I get it now

It looks as if I stumbled right into the palm of your hand

Hey, you

Hey, Mr. Knock-On-My-Door

I'm sorry that I've been emotions galore

Am I crazy for wantin' a little bit more?

A little more of you

A little more, a little more of you

This feelin's hard to ignore

Please, say you'll never get bored

Can you blame me for wantin' a little bit more?

A little more of you

A little more, a little more of you

Hey yeah, hey yeah

Ooh

Hey yeah, hey yeah

Ooh

Hey yeah, hey yeah

Ooh

Hey yeah, hey yeah

A little more of you

A little more, a little more of you

...
