Oh, hey hey, hey
He, friend for all my life, I would not deny
Like brothers in my mind, she treasure of his heart
There upon his arm, eyes of midnight stars
I've been tempted by forbidden love before
But why must she be everythin' that I've been praying for
Now this burning in my heart, will I ignore?
When I know that she'll be knocking at my door
Hey, why you messing with my feelings?
Why you follow me?
I can read the signs you're giving
Why you follow me?
Turn away from your desire
Why you follow me?
Don't be playing with this fire
Why you follow me?
Now she's dancing in the night
Her body is the moonlight
Too much for me to fight
Now, I'm lost within her arms
Careless with my heart, I'm weakened by her charms
He has looked me in my eyes a million times
But now I turn away for I'm afraid of what he'll find
She's the precious love for whom his heart beats for
But now she's always knocking at my door
Hey, why you messing with my feelings?
Why you follow me?
I can read the signs you're giving
Why you follow me?
Turn away from your desire
Why you follow me?
Don't be playing with this fire
Why you follow me?
Now she's dancing in the night
Her body is the moonlight
Too much for me to fight
Now, I'm lost within her arms
What does this song mean to you?
