(Did it again) What am I supposed to do To keep from goin' under? Now you're making holes in my heart And yes it's starting to show I've been holding back Is it any wonder? Since you walked right into my life And interrupted my flow [Chorus] And I wanna know Baby when you're with me Who do you think you're fooling? Making me feel so sure Turnin' your love light down again Why don't you let me be? You don't know what you're doing Making me feel so sure Turning your love light down again (Did it again, did it again) Baby I've got to know Are we gonna make it? Laying down beside me tonight Do whatever you feel Baby you're in control Where you gonna take it? Don't you think that I do you right? You know darn well that I will [Chorus] Baby you turn the lovelight down And I don't know Just how long I can stick around Girl I need more And it ain't just easy girl But I don't know what I can do Cause I found It ain't love this time around Keep turning down your lovelight Did it again
