Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
Parking lot on a dead end street
Same place that we used to meet
I better not get too close
Gotta know what you're doing there
Her hands running through your hair
Another minute, then I think I'll go
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm taking mental pictures of you
For when I get home, I get home
I'm gonna get under the covers with you
But I'm all alone, all alone
[Chorus]
I close my eyes then I make believe you
You're the one that's holding me
Got you with me late at night
I close my eyes and I concentrate
You've got me imagining
Like you're letting me inside
Every time that I close my eyes
[Verse 2]
Start now and I miss your taste
The way it felt when you grab my waist
Can't forget your body moves
Now I see you with someone else
I'm keeping my hands to myself
But to tell the truth, I'm
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm taking mental pictures of you
For when I get home, I get home
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and I make believe
You're the one that's holding me
Got you with me late at night
I close my eyes and I concentrate
You've got me imagining
Like you're letting me inside
Every time that I close my eyes
Every time that I close my eyes
[Bridge]
Hold my breath, count to five
Hoping that you're there when I open my eyes
Cross my heart, hope to die
Every time that I close my eyes
Hold my breath, count to five
Hoping that you're there when I open my eyes
Cross my heart, I don't know why
[Chorus]
I close my eyes and I make believe
You're the one that's holding me
Got you with me late at night
I close my eyes and I concentrate
You've got me imagining
Like you're letting me inside
Every time that I close my eyes
(I'm taking mental pictures of you
For when I get home, I get home)
Every time that I close my eyes
(I'm gonna get into the covers with you
But I'm all alone, all alone)
Every time that I close my eyes
(I close my eyes and I make believe
You're the one that's holding me
Got you with me late at night)
Every time that I close my eyes
(Cross my heart, hope to die
You've got me imagining
Like you're letting me inside)
Every time that I close my eyes
