Ice will melt, water will boil You and I can shake off this mortal coil It's bigger than us You don't have to worry about it Ready or not here comes the drop You feel lucky when you know where you are You know it's gonna come true Here in your arms I remember It's only natural that I should want to Be there with you It's only natural that you should Feel the same way too It's easy when you don't try Going on first impressions Man in a cage has made his confession Now you've seen me at my worst And it won't be the last time I'm down there I want you to know I feel completely at ease Read me like a book That's fallen down between your knees Please, let me have my way with you It's only natural that I should want to Be there with you It's only natural that you should Feel the same way too It's circumstantial, it's nothing written in the sky And we don't even have to try Shaking like mud, buildings of glass Sink into the bay, they'll be under the rocks again You don't have to say I know you're afraid It's only natural that I should want to Be there with you It's only natural that you should Feel the same way too It's circumstantial, it's something I was born to It's only natural, can I help it if I want to? Can I help it if I want to?
