Asus2 E I'd heard rumors and I'd heard talk Asus2 E About the trail you'd left of broken hearts Asus2 E About the sea of tears too wide to cross Asus2 E But a little bad press has never scared me off Asus2 So I burned a path to figure out E How to get me some of what you got Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E If the talk is true yours is the same Asus2 And we should be together E And let our passions fan love's flame Asus2 E When I looked for you I almost passed you by Asus2 You were so cool and calm E I thought my friends had lied Asus2 E But I thought so much reserve must make you wild inside Asus2 It was there and then that I knew E I had to get some of what you got Asus2 I've got a red hot heart E If the talk is true yours is the same Asus2 And we should be together E And let our passions fan love's flame Asus2 E I thought I'd won your heart when I held you hand //in mine // Asus2 E I thought it was true love the way we complemented // ... each other Asus2 But my right is your wrong E And when you're right then I'm left // ...with nothing Asus2 E Your light and your heat have all been spent...
