Baby keep your distance
Our safely close for just friends
Playing all the record in chest
I know how this night gonna end

Get your hands off
I can feel your pulse
You've gotta' back down
You are much too close!

You keep on calling, girl, but I don't have the time
You keep trying to be the only thing on my mind
You keep on hoping and waiting on the sidelines
I hope you know that you'll be waiting for a long time

Maybe it's indifference
Call it what you want, I still feel the same
Blame it on the distance
But things, they still won't change

Get your hands off
I can feel your pulse
You've gotta' back down
You are much too close!

You keep on calling, girl, but I don't have the time
You keep trying to be the only thing on my mind
You keep on hoping and waiting on the sidelines
I hope you know that you'll be waiting for a long time

This back and forth
This tug-o-war, girl
You're never gonna' win my heart
This back and forth
This tug-o-war, girl
You're never gonna' win my heart

Get your hands off
I can feel your pulse
You've gotta' back down
You are much too close!

You keep on calling, girl, but I don't have the time
You keep trying to be the only thing on my mind
You keep on hoping and waiting on the sidelines
I hope you know that you'll be waiting for a long time
