I’m a little used to calling outside your name

I won't see you tonight so I can keep from going insane

But I don't know enough, I get some kinda of lazy day

I've been fabulous through to find my tattered name

I'll be stewed tomorrow if I don't leave us both the same

But I don't know enough, I get some kind of lazy day

'Cause it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Only time will tell and I will figure out

That we can baby, we can do the one night stand

And it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Outside your skin right near the fire

That we can baby, we can change and feel alright

I'm a little used to wandering outside the rain

You could leave me tomorrow if it suits you just the same

But I don't know enough, I need sun when it leaves the day

'Cause it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Only time will tell and I will figure out

That we can baby, we can do the one night stand

And it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Outside your skin right near the fire

That we can baby, we can change and feel alright

'Cause it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Only time will tell and I will figure out

That we can baby, we can do the one night stand

And it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Outside your skin right near the fire

That we can baby, we can change and feel alright

'Cause it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Only time will tell and I will figure out

That we can baby, we can do the one night stand

And it's hard for me to lose in my life I've found

Outside your skin right near the fire

That we can baby, we can change and feel alright
