Lyrics

Private Message

[Verse 1]

I want you so badly

Too bad that you slammed me

And when you are reading the words I write

You think that I'm just some dumb, horny guy

[Verse 2]

I'm trying to show you

A hint of my coolness

But I can't give up on the secret deed

'Cause love is so empty when you can't cheat

[Chorus]

Hold my hand

Tell me that you love me for who I am

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 2]

But I can't give up on the secret deed

'Cause love is so empty when you can't cheat

[Chorus]

Hold my hand

Tell me that you love me for who I am

[Outro]

I'm trying to show you

A hint of my coolness

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do

Do-do-do, do-do-do
