You came on to me a house on fire One look was all it took for my desire I'm still burnin' It's the middle of the night I need somethin' That can make me feel alright as I go
Chorus Skin deep - to the bone Every time I see your face I go Skin deep - to the bone Tellin' me that I'm in trouble S.O.S. I'm in distress - tonight
Knock knock in the dark - what will I find Your eyes - hynotize - but can they read my mind Watch your step now We're gettin' closer to the edge This is dangerous And all the lights are flashing red as I go
Chorus Skin deep - to the bone Every time I see your face I go Skin deep - to the bone Tellin' me that I'm in trouble Skin deep - to the bone Tellin' me that I'm in trouble Too far gone Can't hold on - tonight - not tonight
I'm still burnin' It's the middle of the night I need someone Who can make me feel alright as I go
Chorus
