D
I been watchin’ you watchin’ me, I could feel your eyes from way across the room 
Bm
But now that I’m holdin’ you close I can see ain’t no way I’m gonna get around you 
D
I won’t tell you I don’t need you tonight, I won’t pretend I ain’t burnin’ inside 
     Bm
Your skin glowin’ soft in the silver moonlight, the shadows where the promises hide 
G                                  Gm
The bittersweet taste of your kiss, it’s all more than I can resist 


Chorus:
D         Bm                         F#m     A
If you’re thinkin’ ‘bout breakin’ my heart 
D                                  Bm                      F#m    A
You might as well just pick up your little black dress and go 
D        Bm                    F#m    A
Somebody else already tore it apart 
                         G    Gm
And I thought you should know 


Maybe this is all that you want, maybe you’re just as lonesome as me 
A shoulder that you can cry on, a warm safe place you can be 
Someone to call in the middle of the night when the ghosts in your bedroom won’t rest 
Two arms to hold you tight, I promise that I’ll do my best 
To give you everything I got to give and keep your secrets for as long as I live
