[Verse 1]
If you say the right things
If you say the right things
You can have me, baby, don't cha wanna?
But you don't even know my name
But I was kinda hoping that would change
Change, change, change
Cause you caught, you caught my
You caught, you caught my eye, eye, eye, eye, eye, eye
And I become speechless
When I catch ya looking back at me
Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
[Chorus]
It takes me away
Ooh, it takes me away, oh
It takes me away, oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
And you probably feel the same
Liking them heels shawty, killin' the game
(Killin' the game, yeah, killin' the game)
But you ain't gotta wreck your brain
Instead of watching, just come over babe
So you can know my name (so you can know my name)
When I catch ya looking back at me
Eh-eh-eh-eh-eh-eh
[Chorus]
It takes me away
Ooh, it takes me away, oh
It takes me away, oh
It takes me away, oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[Bridge]
Would you be my, would you be my?
Would you be my superstar?
Martin, I'll be Gina
Like a little lamb, follow me everywhere I go
We can have that good love
You can share my pillow
We can do whatever you wanna do as long as you take it slow
Hey! (Hey!)
[Chorus]
It takes me away, oh
It takes me away, oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
And it feels like, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
