GmI came around to your front door, your back door was locked GmPushed your button, rang your bell, you didn't hear me knock COh baby, I saw your Gmwindow open wide, so I crawled inside I Dran to the top floor, but Bbyou were on the ground But CI was on my way up and Ebyou were going down

GmThis strange sensation that I'm going through GmSweet infatuation when I get next to you COh,I know what it takes to be a Gmman, you understand Because Dwhen the sparks start flying you'll Bbnever be the same You Cknow I'll hate to leave you girl but EbI'm so glad I came
