And after two or three you were all over me, all over me

Oh and I know red's your favourite colour

And we sat in the same place doing impressions of each other

Oh no, baby are we gonna make it this time?

I always take hearts that shouldn't be mine, be mine

Slow down baby, are we gonna make it alive?

You've got a face that I always recognise
Always recognise
