| Heard about you for awhile, never saw a show
|
| Used to play you on college radio
|
| Now we’re face to face, friend of a friend
|
| Got a hundred reasons why this shouldn’t happen
|
| You got a hundred reasons why this shouldn’t be
|
| And not a single one of them has a thing to do with me
|
| So just shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| «I'm a man, I’m a man with a plan
|
| That’s me in the broken window,» he said «don't you understand?»
|
| Weren’t even sure it was me when I walked in the room
|
| Careful son, it’s gonna get real hot soon
|
| And I been, I’ve been trying to fight this fight right here by swimming upstream
|
| I couldn’t tell you where I’m going, couldn’t show you where I been
|
| Shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| So just shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| So what if we just stop pretending, stop making believe?
|
| What if true love only comes when you’re playing for keeps?
|
| So just shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| Just shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| Do you know the value of this? |
| can you assess it?
|
| And if you could would you even know how to invest it?
|
| I know a thing about a thing or two
|
| I know I gotta keep a couple things safe from you
|
| If I folded my heart into a pretty paper plane
|
| And flew it cross the Hudson would it come back again?
|
| Would it get crumpled up? |
| would it get caught up
|
| In a crosswind in the sea or would it fly back to me?
|
| Shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| Just shut up, shut up shut up shut up
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| Oh, oh, oh
|
| Kiss me like you mean it
|
| Shut up, shut up shut up shut up |
