Misheard Lyrics:
The light above, it shines so bright that the empty eye won't sleep tonight
'Cause I'm so alone with you that I don't know what to do
OR
'Cause I'm so in love with you that I don't know what to do
(Later)
Sex and lies can't bring me down 'cause you sold my soul all over town
'Cause I'm so alone with you that I don't know what to do
OR
'Cause I'm so in love with you that I don't know what to do
(Later)
Sex and lies can't bring me down 'cause you sold my soul all over town

The light above, it shines so bright that the FBI won't sleep tonight
'Cause I'm so in awe of you that I don't know what to do

'Cause I'm so in awe of you that I don't know what to do
(Later)
Sex and lies can't bring me down 'cause I sold my soul all over town
