When we do it

The great big "it"

I hope it's "we"

And not just me

When we do it

Something happens

And it's bigger than

The both of us

And for a second there's no trouble

And the world outside goes away

The clock on the wall between us stops

Then the world outside blows away

You make me lose my body

And nothing could be better

You make me lose my body

It's like we've died and gone to heaven

You make me lose my body

When we do it

The universal "it"

I know it's "we"

And not just me

When we do it

Something happens

And it's bigger than

The both of us

And for a second there's no trouble

And the world outside goes away

The clock on the wall between us stops

Then the world outside blows away

You make me lose my body

And nothing could be better

You make me lose my body

It's like we've died and gone to heaven

You make me lose my body

And nothing could be better

When we do it
