[Intro]
(All the way)
(All the way)
[Verse 1]
I can't feel you out
You’re so mysterious
I can't help but feel like
I was made for you
You've got to give me something
Anything would do
Why can’t I feel you out
Girl there's one thing I think you should know
[Chorus]
Baby I could take you all the way
(All the way)
(All the way)
Yes I know
The feelings that I got won't go away
(Go away)
(Go away)
[Verse 2]
Well, you spell it out
Girl, say your thoughts out loud
You're feeling like a stranger
I'm trying to play it cool
Cause I'm feeling so much stronger
Can't get enough of you
I wish you'd spell it out
Well girl there’s just thing you’ve just got to know
[Chorus]
Baby I could take you all the way
(All the way)
(All the way)
Yes I know
The feelings that I got won't go away
(Go away)
(Go away)
[Bridge]
Girl I know you love it
I can’t help it
All I want is to get to you
(To get you)
I know you can't help it
You're just quiet
All I want is to get to you
Girl there's one thing you’ve just got to know
[Chorus]
Baby I could take you all the way
(All the way)
(All the way)
This I know
The feelings that I've got won't go away
(Go away)
Girl there's just one thing you've got to know
Baby I could take you all the way
(All the way)
(All the way)
Honey this I know
The feelings that I got won't go away
(Go away)
Yeah, yeah yeah
(Go away)

In an interview with Billboard, drummer Steven Rutherford said:
Whenever we write songs, we usually come up with the hook first, and then from there, lyrically, we’ll do a stream of consciousness. I don’t know a better word for it other than ‘word vomit.’ It’s basically to let out what you’re think...
