And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be.

“Oh, love, love, love —
Love on a hilltop high,
Love against a cloudless sky,
Love where the scene is
Painted by a million stars,
Love with martinis
In the cabarets and bars.
Oh, love, love, love…”

come and hunt me down,
keep me in your line of sight
Be my predator, I'll give in to ya
Take a taste, do what you like
Show me how to love ya
Show me how to get you high
Show me how to love ya
I just wanna rock you right”
