Lyrics

Take it off
Do your thing
???
If you like, I can still
Be around, be with you

I'm going to take you in my arms
You're going to fall from ???
And while your waiting
Anticipating
I'll study you

Take it on
Do your thing
...
Trapped ...
If you like, I'll come through
...
Be with you

I'm going to take you in my arms
You're going to fall from ???
And while your waiting
Anticipating
I'll study you

I'll study you
I'll study you

I'm going to take you in my arms
You're going to fall from ???
And while your waiting
Anticipating
I'll study you

Do your dance
Do your thing
Prance around
Try to sing

Try to sing
Try to sing
Try to sing
Try to sing
