Song Sheet
CWell, you done me and you bet I felt it
I Gtried to be chill, but you're so hot that I melted
I Amfell right through the cracks
And now I'm Ftrying to get back
Before the Ccool run out I'll be giving in my bestest
And Gnothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I Amreckon it's again my turn to Fwin some or learn some
(Chorus)
But I won't Chesitate no more, no Gmore
It cannot Amwait, I'm Fyours
(Verse 2)
Well, Copen up your mind and see like me
GOpen up your plans and damn, you're free
AmLook into your heart and you'll find Flove, love, love, love
CListen to the music of the moment, people dance and sing
GWe're just one big family
And it's our Amgodforsaken right to be D7loved, love, love, love, love
(Chorus)
So I won't Chesitate no more, no Gmore
It cannot Amwait, I'm Fsure
There's no need to Ccomplicate, our time is Gshort
This is our Amfate, I'm Fyours
(Bridge)
CScooch on over closer, dear
And I will Gnibble your ear
Am F
(Verse 3)
I've been Cspending way too much time looking at my tongue in the mirror
And Gbending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my Ambreath fogged up the glass
And so I Fdrew a new face and I laughed
I Cguess what I'd be saying is there ain't no better reason
To Grid yourself of vanity and just go with the season
It's Amwhat we aim to do, our name is our Fvirtue
(Outro)
But I won't Chesitate no more, no Gmore
It cannot Amwait, I'm Fyours...
