Lyrics
Twist and turnin' babe yeah, right to the heart of me so,
For weeks you've got me yearning, but you got to take it slow
I guess I'll never know why, you took my heart to go, my heart
You took my heart to go
So I said hey hey, where you been lately
This in between it's taking much too long
Gotta sinkin' feelin', you're double dealin'
These red heart leaves their burning one by one
This screw you keep on turnin' and you won't let me be so
Just when I thought I knew you, another truth I'd see
I guess I'll never know why, you took my heart to go, my heart,
You took my heart to go
So I said hey hey, where you been lately
This in between it's taking much too long
Gotta sinkin' feelin', you're double dealin'
These red heart leaves their burning one by one, yeah
These red heart leaves their burning one by one, yeah
These red heart leaves their burning one by one
