lyrics

What am I supposed to know when this
is nothing but a feeling
that you have fed with great discretion

Still I’ve got to learn to spread the word
when I feel like starting sailing
to the land of Candid Confessions

If you really need me come on
you’ve gotta show me
the love that you were saving
for when you would have found the right time
to let it all go out and on me like a WATERBOMB

Who am I supposed to trust when this
is nothing but a chase game
and I am not the best of the players

I think i’ll be just fine with laying down
I’ll keep on fantasizing
I’d rather be the best of the dreamers

If you really need me come on
you’ve gotta show me
the love that you were planning
to make to me but you were too proud

to admit that you're too weak ad you can't take
the first step

If you really need me come on you’ve gotta show me...
If you really want me come on you’ve gotta show me...
If you really need me come on you’ve gotta show me...
If you really want me come on you’ve gotta show me...

Okay, but is there really something I don’t know about you?
It’s a fact that I can't keep on waiting until you'll
drop your WATERBOMB
