lyrics

We went out last night,
And I took her to a place I don't like,
To spend too much time at,
or much of my money on.
But man, she was worth it. Worth every dime,
Every second I spent I was having a time,
Told her climb those pretty long legs up in here next to me.
My heart was racing with her head on my chest,
Until she gave me a look, said, "darlin', don't hold back,"
And then I leaned on in and pretty soon,
We were swimming,
Deep inside of an ocean of blankets,
Fightin' back the morning all night long.
So here's my heart, if you want you can break it,
Or we can just have fun, you can hold my hand,
We can let this be what it naturally, naturally ought to be.
Man was I wrong, that was it she was gone,
As if she never were there, man, she just disappeared,
But every now and again I think about her and then,
A smile comes to my face, 'cause I remember,
Yeah, I remember when we were swimming',
Deep inside of an ocean of blankets,
Fightin' back the morning all night long.
So here's my heart, if you want you can break it,
Or we can just have fun, you can hold my hand,
We can let this be what it naturally, naturally ought to be.
