You Please Me
by: DragonetteWake up I'm all alone in my room
Glad you're gone
Alone is just the way I wanna be
Someone's waking up with you
Someone pretty, someone who you'll do that thing to
That you did to me
It's the only thing that I want lately
I don't miss your company
I just want those hands on me
To touch the places underneath
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
At night time when it's dark outside
I go to where I know you're hiding
Look up at your window from the street
You're up there, where some believe
Finally getting over me
You got something up there that I need
It's the only thing that I've been missing
I don't want your conversation
Come outside here for a second
Pay me some of your attention
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
You can keep me out of your sight, that's alright
You can keep me out of your mind, even though
I know we're done you keep on turning me on
Maybe I want one more kiss
Shouldn't I get one more wish?
Couldn't I just have you back for one more go around
the track?
It's easy, believe me
It's easy, you please me
It's easy
(You keep on turning me on)
You please me
(You keep on turning me on)
It's easy
(You keep on turning me on)
You please me
(You keep on turning me on)
You can keep me out of your sight
(It's alright / You keep on turning me on)
You can keep me out of your mind
