Help Yourself

Breathe in. Old leather seats, air thick with heat.
I am not deceiving. We split by street, find liquor sweet.
As slowly your eyes lock mine - it’s not the time. Owen don’t you cross the line!
Sense declines as if valentines, but we’ll just focus on the climb.
Smoking. Midnight bells, destroy myself -
You’re so thought-provoking. Over I fell though I daren’t tell.
Can’t help that our breathing speeds in time, as our heartbeats intertwine
It’s a rollercoaster ride, and I can’t help but think of…
CHORUS
YOU (you), and I think he wants me
TOO (too), woah-oh, warm me up, I’ll melt like glue!
And I’ll play it off so cool: Dancing, vodka, Malibu
Two hearts will break this rendezvous
So pour another we’ll drink until…
Our feelings, lead to the corners of our mouths
Facing the ceiling. Needle, balloon, don’t want a crowd.
And I get to know the person under mask that’s hidden from plain sight.
When it’s just me and you, the curtains closed, we’re starting up our night!
And you’re turning me on with a bottle of white
As subconsciously I am starting to climb
Up so high - set my sights
In my mind - such a height
Is this wrong? Is this right?
I can’t help but think of…
CHORUS
I’m fooling around, you’re fooling around, we’re fooling around.
Not used to the sound, get used to the sound, now used to the sound.
So if you’re thinking, and we’re drinking as the moon becomes the dusk.
And if you’re seeing what I’m feeling, then the deal is that maybe you should just Help Yourself!
I’m fooling around, you’re fooling around, we’re fooling around.
And I think he wants me too.
Not used to the sound, get used to the sound, now used to the sound.
Thought that you’d take me for a fool, but I played it off so cool.
‘Cause thinking and drinking leads to
YOU (you), and I think he wants me
TOO (too), woah-oh, warm me up, I’ll melt like glue!
And I’ll play it off so cool: Dancing, vodka, Malibu
Though that you’d take me for a fool; laughing, smoking by the pool
Two hearts will break this rendezvous,
‘Cause I think you want me too.
So you can just help yourself.
