Tearing Me Up

Bob Moses

10

Let me tell you about a little situation

It′s been testin' my patience

Man, she was keepin′ me up all night'Cause you only get so far readin' faces

We were off to the races

And I thought to myself, hold tight

You see there was just this one complication

She was already taken

And what was so wrong felt so right

She said no need to be lookin′ over your shoulder

When you could just come over

And we could work this out just fine

I don′t know what you want from me

So careless in my company

Oh, if all that you say is true

There'll be no gettin′ over you

Slow me down playin' by your rules

If you′re a joker then I'm the fool

I guess there′s no catchin' up to you

If you don't want my affection

Don′t lie, you′re tearin' me up

′Cause you've got all my attention

I won′t lie, you're tearin′ me up

And I'm tryin' to tell your intention

When you lie, you′re tearin′ me up

If you don't want my affection

You won′t mind tearin' me up

It all started with a simple conversation

It was all in the makin′, man

She was talkin' me up all night

Kept askin′ if I was only fakin'

She was there for takin'

Showin′ me that she was all mine

She told me she lived just around the corner

I wanted to know her

Yeah, she was makin′ me lose my mind

I didn't know quite what I was chasin′

She had my heart racin'

And all it took was just one night

I don′t know what you want from me

So careless in my company

Oh, if all that you say is true

There'll be no gettin′ over you

Slow me down playin' by your rules

If you're a joker then I′m the fool

I guess there′s no catchin' up to you

If you don′t want my affection

Don't lie, you′re tearin' me up

′Cause you've got all my attention

I won't lie, you′re tearin′ me up

And I'm tryin′ to tell your intention

When you lie, you're tearin′ me up

If you don't want my affection

You won′t mind tearin' me up

I don't know what you want from me

So careless in my company

Oh, if all that you say is true

There′ll be no gettin′ over you

Slow me down playin' by your rules

If you′re a joker then I'm the fool

I guess there′s no catchin' up to you

If you don′t want my affection

Don't lie, you're tearin′ me up

′Cause you've got all my attention

I won′t lie, you're tearin′ me up

And I'm tryin′ to tell your intention

When you lie, you're tearin' me up

If you don′t want my affection

You won′t mind tearin' me up
