[English]

You grip your hands around my throat (Hands around my throat)

And you strip the buttons off my coat (Buttons off my coat)

And I choose the methods I do best (Methods I do best)

And the thump thump, the thumping in your chest

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver (Shiver)

...

You leave these marks upon my neck (Marks upon my neck)

And they're still there, I know but I still check (But I still check)

And the thump thump, the thumping in my chest (Thumping in my chest)

As I lose the feeling in my fingertips

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

Owley, you're dear to me

Please check your clothing at the door

And who you're supposed to be

You always leave me wanting more

Owley, you're dear to me

Shall we get intimate again?

Owley, you're dear to me

Shall we get intimate again?

Shall we get intimate again?

Shall we get intimate again?

I think so, I think so

Shall we get intimate again?

Owley, you're dear to me (me, me)

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver, ooh-oh

When you are close to me, I shiver

When you are close to me, I shiver (Shiver)
