[Intro]
What am I supposed to say?
An old love called me yesterday
And she sounds so sweet
Why, she sounds so...
[Hook]
Drill me to the floor
This hurts even more than I expected it to do
(Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Drill me to the floor
This hurts even more than I expected it to do
(Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
[Breakdown]
(Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh) Drill me to the floor
(Ooh ooh ooh) This hurts even more, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
[Verse 1]
Like the moon says to the dark, we will never be apart
I'll never be alone again
Cause it was you who'd call me out
When I couldn't shut my mouth
About the last love that did me in
I couldn't sleep, you said, "Just sleep with me"
I couldn't speak, you said, "I'm listening"
And if it breaks me down I'll be around
Until it's you love, you're my new love
[Hook]
Drill me to the floor
This hurts even more than I expected it to do
(Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
[Breakdown]
(Ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh ooh) Drill me to the floor
(Ooh ooh ooh) This hurts even more, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh
[Outro]
Old love
It's been so long
Why you gotta call
And hurt me, hurt me?
Old love
It's been so long
Why you gotta call
And hurt me, hurt me?
Old love
It's been so long
Why you gotta call
And hurt me? hurt
And I love you still
Why I love you?
