Burn You Up, Burn You Down

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Straight as an arrow Carry our intentions through the wind Dogs all around you But you're gonna get the message to your friend [Pre-Chorus] At every rendezvous, tou keep on looking around Nightime in the city and the rain keeps falling down [Chorus] Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use [Verse 2] Heaven knows the road to go How many times we've told you so (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) No rhyme or reason No way to make it easy till it's done (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) [Pre-Chorus] So you cross onto the other side of the street (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) You should know better than to keep turning up the heat [Chorus] Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use [Bridge] Oh-oh-ai-ai (Hey, hey, hey, hey) Make me feel this (Hey, hey, hey, hey) Hey-ey, hey, hey (Hey, hey, hey, hey) Make me feel it (Hey, hey, hey, hey) When they lose you, it can bruise you (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) Break me open, I need someone to see me (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) Make me feel it, make me feel [Pre-Chorus] In the city and the rain is falling down (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) You can make it happen, with your eyes, with your eyes alone (Burn you up, and I'll burn you down Burn you up, and I'll burn you down) [Chorus] Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose Just learning how to twist and shout It doesn't matter much which damn beat you use (Break me open) Let me tell you how it all works out Never thought we had so much time to lose (Make me feel it) Just learning how to twist and shout Doesn't matter much which damn beat you use (Break me open) Let me tell you how it all works out I never thought we had so much time to lose (Make me feel it) Just learning how to twist and shout Doesn't matter much which damn beat you use (You make me feel it)
