make me
© 2000 Janis Carper

you make me want to cut my hair
and close my bank account
you shake me up way down where
you can never take the easy way out

you make me want to start to smoke
and get a real tattoo
you take the world by the throat
that's what I make of you

you make me
I take you
take me to you now
you make me

you make me want to move away
to Spain or Arkansas
you wake me at the light of day
with a suitcase and a song

you make me want to cry out loud
and never say a word
you break the silence with the sound
of nothing I have heard

you make me
I take you
take me to you now
you make me
