French Navy |
Spent a week in a dusty library |
Waiting for some words to jump at me |
We met by a trick of fate |
French navy my sailor mate |
We met by the moon on a silvery lake |
You came my way |
Said, I want you to stay |
You with your dietary restriction |
Said you loved me with a lot of conviction |
I was waiting to be struck by lightning |
Waiting for somebody exciting |
Like you |
Oh, the thing that you do |
You make me go ooooh |
With the thing that you do (you do, you do) |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
I’ll be criticized for lending out my art |
I was criticized for letting you break my heart |
Why would I stand for disappointed looks? |
I’m fully grown, but I’m on tenterhooks |
Ooh with the looks, on tenterhooks |
Ooh with the looks, the looks, the looks |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
Relationships were something I used to do |
Convince me they are better for me and you |
We met by a trick of fate |
French navy, my sailor |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
I wanted to control it |
But love, I couldn’t hold it |
