Lyrics

You make me agitated

With all the things you´ve hated But you´re uncomplicated So why should it affect you That my loving was so untrue?

You do it to me sweetly To my yeah yeah You do it to me lovely To my yeah yeah

You try to make me crazy You make me agitated But we´re not suffocated And why should it affect you That my loving was so untrue?

You do it to me sweetly To my yeah yeah You do it to my lovely To my yeah yeah

Demo version

You make me agitated

With all the things you´ve hated But you´re uncomplicated So why should it affect you That my loving was so untrue?

You do it inside me sweetly To my yeah yeah You do it to me lovely To my yeah yeah

You do it to me lovely You know I can I said it But you're uncomplicated So why should it affect you That my loving was so untrue?

You do it inside me sweetly To my yeah yeah You do it to me lovely To my yeah yeah

You do it to me sweetly You know that I could never love you You never knew me But I can tell that you can do it You do it to me sweetly I never let you down Do it to me my lovely Oh you can it
