 The way that Ayou remember there was Bnothing to say
 So you Ethrew your arms around me, threw your arms around me
 AGirl you shouldn't think that I've got Bnowhere to go
 But I'll Etell you how I felt if you really want to know
 How warAm in the mF#morning when you Easked me to Astay
 And how Acool in tF#mhe evening when Eyou sent me Aaway
 We were Aright in F#mthe middle I waEs ready to sAay
 How cooAl in the eF#mvening when you Esent me awaAy
 Baby when you touch me with that look in your eye
 I can feel the air around me, feel the air around me
 Close enough to whisper, as I soon hope to be
 I'll wrap the words around you if that can make you see
 How warm in the morning when you asked me to stay
 And how cool in the evening when you sent me away
 We were right in the middle I was ready to say
 How cool in the evening when you sent me away
 Baby when you touch me with that look in your eye
 How warm in the morning when you asked me to stay
 And how cool in the evening when you sent me away
 We were right in the middle I was ready to say
 How cool in the evening when you sent me away
 How warm in the morning when you asked me to stay
 And how cool in the evening when you sent me away
 We were right in the middle I was ready to say
 How cool in the evening when you sent me away...
