I'm licking your postage stamp again.

I'm using my right brain and I'm praying the weight will crash.
Bb C G
Who knew I'd come so fast.

Well so what if a two pump chump can't last.

I'll surely fight making love on economy.

unsaid when the matter is too delicate.

Tonight, sleep tight, and build your nest upon my shoulder.
