I really love the way you talk
C             D        C
I don't mind sayin' so
G          D                      C
And ooh I love it when you da-ance

C             D                  C
I know you refuse to get involved
C                  D
You won't help me out none
C                      D        C
You run around like a paperdoll
C                D C
Pretending it's fun

Oh baby please don't run

Somethin' in the night just don't sit right

Looks like I'm gonna be up all night, yeah

It's been such a long time

I won't forget the way you said
C           D              C
It doesn't bother you much
C           D                   C
Tutor impressions in your he-ead
C                     D
Just before the last touch
C              D   C
That meant so much


[Pre-Chorus]
Em                           C
Somethin' in the night just don't sit right
