YOU TOOK THE WORDS RIGHT OUT OF MY MOUTH (HOT SUMMER NIGHT)

It was a hot summer night and the beach was burning
There was fog crawlin' over the sand
When I listen to heart I hear the whole world turnin'
I see the shooting stars falling trough your trembling hands

You were lickin' your lips and your lipstick shining'
I was dying just to ask for a taste
We were lying together in a silver lining
By the light of the moon you know there's not another moment
Not another moment
Not another moment to waste

You hold me so close that my knees grow weak
But my soul is flyin' high above the ground
I'm tryin' to speak but no matter what I do
I just can't seem to make any sound

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must have been when you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true I was just about to say I love you

Now my body is shaking like a wave on the water
And I guess that I'm beginning to grin
Oh we're finally alone and we can do what we want to
The night is young and ain't no one's gonna know where
No one's gonna know where
No one's gonna know where you've been

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
Oh, it must have been when you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
And I swear it's true I was just about to say I love you

And then you took the words right out of my mouth
(it must have been when you were kissing me)
You took the words right out of my mouth
(it must have been when you were kissing me)
You took the words right out of my mouth
(it must have been when you were kissing me)
You took the words right out of my mouth
(it must have been when you were kissing me)
You took the words right out of my mouth
(it must have been when you were kissing me)
You took the words right out of my mouth
You took the words right out of my mouth
You took the words right out of my mouth

You took the words right out of my mouth
It must have been when you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
It must have been when you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
It must have been when you were kissing me
You took the words right out of my mouth
It must have been when you were kissing me............

FOR CRYING OUT LOUD (EDIT)

I was dammed and you were saved
And I never knew how enslaved
I was kneeling in the chains of my master

I could laugh but you could cry
And I never knew just how high
I was flying, ah, with you right above me

And now the chilly Californian wind is blowing down our bodies again
And now we are sinking deeper and deeper in the chilly Californian sand
Oh I know you belong inside my aching heart
And can't you see my faded Levis bursting apart?
And don't you hear me crying, oh babe don't go?
And don't you hear me screaming, how was I to know?

I'm in the middle of nowhere near the end of the line
But there is a border to somewhere waiting and there is a tankful of time
Oh gimme just another moment to see the light of the day
And take me to another land where I don't have to stay
And I'm gonna need somebody to make me feel like you do
And I'm gonna receive somebody with open arms, open eyes
Open up the sky and let the planet that I love shine trough

For crying out loud
You know I love you

For crying out loud
You know I love you....
