Okay

We can do whatever you like

Pushing any ego aside

Mmm

Temperature like sweet July

Okay (Okay)

Every look is giving me hell

Not asking now for anyone's help

Mmm

This is everything I need

...

So take my love, but don't lose it

I'm seconds from bruising, here

But I don't care

Alright

Take my love and be greedy

Don't know where you're leading me

But take me there

Oh

...

I tried to fight it, but I feel so damn useless

Just be yourself, no need to make no excuses

I try (I try)

Oh baby, I try

But my hands are tied

My mouth, it moves, pretending that I ain't selfish

I'm saying words, but I don't think I can help it

I hide

Oh baby, I hide

Hiding what I know you'll find

...

Okay (Okay)

Let me be your moment in time

Let me be the one that you find

Uh

This can be all yours and mine

...

So take my love, but don't lose it

I'm seconds from bruising, here

But I don't care

Alright

Take my love and be greedy

Don't know where you're leading me

But take me there

Oh

...

I tried to fight it, but I feel so damn useless

Just be yourself, no need to make no excuses

I try (I try)

Oh baby, I try

But my hands are tied

My mouth, it moves, pretending that I ain't selfish

I'm saying words, but I don't think I can help it

I hide (I hide)

Oh baby, I hide

Hiding in sweet July
